What a gift costs
Every donation to your organization carries a 2.5% AzarFaith platform fee, deducted at the moment the gift settles. Card, bank transfer and USSD payments also carry a processor rate of about 1.4%, which we pass through without markup, so the rate you see is the rate the processor charges us. Nothing else is deducted from what your givers give.
- Free: campaign creation, organization verification and your verified badge, unlimited updates, and monthly or quarterly impact reports.
- Free: giver receipts, CSV and PDF exports, and payout statements for your trustees.
- Optional later: boosting a campaign to reach more givers, quoted per campaign and never taken from donations.
- No setup fee, no monthly subscription, and no charge on failed or refunded gifts.

Are there hidden charges?
No. The 2.5% platform fee and the processor pass-through are the only deductions on a donation. There is no monthly subscription, no fee for paying out to a Nigerian bank account, and no charge for verification, updates or reports.
Who pays the fees?
Fees are deducted before the gift reaches your balance, so the figure in your dashboard is always net. Givers receive a receipt showing their gift amount, and full fee detail stays in your dashboard for your records.
Do failed or refunded gifts cost us anything?
No. Fees are only taken on successfully settled donations. If a gift is refunded to the giver, the platform fee and the processor charge are reversed along with it.
What does boosting cost?
Boosting is optional and quoted per campaign. It is billed separately to your organization and never reduces the funds raised from givers, so your campaign total stays untouched.
Is the processor rate fixed at 1.4%?
About 1.4% is illustrative for Nigerian card, bank transfer and USSD payments. The exact pass-through appears on each gift in your dashboard, and we never add a markup to it.
