- Payment processing depends on the payment method you choose (one or the other, not both):
- Credit card: 2.9% + $0.30 per batched billing transaction.
- ACH (US only): 0.8%, capped at $5 per batched billing transaction.
- Our foundation issues a tax receipt directly to your brand when you're billed.

Based on each app's public Shopify App Store listing and, for ShoppingGives, shoppinggives.com/pricing, as of October 2026. A dash means the feature isn't listed there, not that it's unsupported. Give & Grow has no monthly fee; a 10% technology fee (5% on request for nonprofit partners and brands with a direct nonprofit relationship) plus payment processing applies to donations only, and brands can cover the fees so US nonprofits receive 100% of the donation (international payouts may carry local fees, and nonprofits pay a $5 fee per monthly payout).

Answers
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can I set up Give & Grow?
Most stores are live in under 10 minutes. If you'd rather not touch code, our team handles theme embeds and customization for you. Email give-and-grow@pledgeling.com with the subject "Integration Help".
Can I let customers add a donation at checkout?
Yes. Pick your customer donation settings in the app, then follow the guide for your theme: full cart, slide-out cart, Shopify Plus checkout, or POS.
Does Give & Grow work with Rebuy?
Yes. Give & Grow is listed in Rebuy's Tech Partner Directory and adds donations directly into your Rebuy cart.
Can I donate a percentage, or different amounts per product?
Yes to both. Give any percentage or a fixed amount per product sold, and set rules per product. Product settings override store-wide settings.
Can I support more than one nonprofit?
Yes, up to 12 at a time. Donations split evenly, or turn on Customer Choice so shoppers pick the cause.
Can I change my cause after going live?
Anytime. Update it in Settings in your dashboard and the app adjusts automatically.
What does it cost?
Give & Grow is free to install with no monthly fee. A 10% technology fee applies to the donation amount only, plus payment processing for the one method you choose: credit card (2.9% + $0.30) or ACH (US only, 0.8% capped at $5), per batched billing transaction. Cover the fees so US nonprofits receive 100% of the donation, or let them be deducted from the donation so the app is fee-free for your store. The technology fee is 5% for nonprofit partners and for brands with a direct nonprofit relationship. To get the 5% rate, email shopify@pledge.to to request it.
How often am I billed for donations?
Donations accrue through the month and are billed by credit card or ACH on the 1st, only for the donation amount raised, never your total order value. Email us to customize your billing threshold or billing email.
How much reaches the nonprofit, and when?
It's your choice. If you cover the fees, US nonprofits receive 100% of every donation we send, and the fees are added to your monthly bill. If you don't, the technology fee and payment processing are deducted from the donation, so the app costs your store nothing. For international partners, the local bank or payout partner may deduct a fee after we send the full amount. Donations are calculated monthly and sent to nonprofits within 15 days of the end of each month.
Separately, nonprofits pay a flat $5 disbursement fee on each monthly payout. A payout combines everything they receive through Pledge, including brands, other platforms and direct fundraising, and is sent once they have more than $20. The $5 is the same whether the payout is $21 or $1 million.
Are donations tax-deductible?
Yes, in the US to the extent allowed by law. Donation receipts are available in your dashboard for your accounting. Speak with your lawyer about any disclosure rules that apply to you.
What happens when a customer uses a discount code?
Percentage-based donations are discounted along with the order. Fixed-amount donations are not affected. Customer donations are excluded from discounts.
What happens when an order is returned?
Donations aren't refunded automatically because they're often already sent. If a donation is still pending, you can cancel it in the Reports section.
Can I support non-US nonprofits?
Yes. We support a growing roster of non-US organizations, all eligible for US tax deduction (actual deductibility depends on your situation).
Can I track donations from my physical stores too?
Yes. Add Give & Grow to Shopify POS, or email give-and-grow@pledgeling.com with the subject "Offline Sales" to include offline sales in your totals.
Do I have to tell customers how much I'm donating?
Yes, and Give & Grow does it automatically: the back of the impact calculator shows how much is donated and to whom.
What compliance does Pledge handle?
Our nonprofit, the Pledgeling Foundation, is registered for fundraising in every state, and we handle AB488 compliance, tax receipts and disbursement to verified nonprofits. Brands remain responsible for commercial co-venturer (CCV) laws and any other cause-marketing rules that apply to their promotions, so check with your own counsel.
