Platforms Take Too Much
Other platforms charge 15-20% in fees, eating into creators' funds. OpnFundr charges a flat 5% platform fee + payment processing, letting creators keep more of what they raise.

Supporting Projects Shouldn't Be This Hard
Traditional donation platforms create barriers that prevent great ideas from getting the support they deserve.
Complicated Checkout Process
Long forms, required accounts, and confusing flows turn away supporters before they can help.
Lack of Transparency
Creators and donors often don't know where money goes or how fees are calculated.
What OpnFundr actually is
Facts you can check, not star ratings or stock quotes.
Donate as a guest
Name and email for a receipt. No account required. Create one later if you want to save a card or track gifts.
Gifts, not investments
Donations are gifts. There are no rewards, equity, or expected returns, even when a project shows a goal or “fully funded.”
A published fee, not a rating
Creators pay a 5% platform fee plus Stripe processing. We do not publish a star rating we have not measured.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about OpnFundr
Q: How much do creators actually receive?
A: Creators receive the donation amount minus fees. Fees are: Stripe processing fees (2.9% + $0.30) + 5% platform fee. For example, a $100 donation results in $91.80 to the creator ($3.20 Stripe fee + $5.00 platform fee). That's still well below the 15-20% effective cost on many other platforms.
Q: Do I need an account to support a project?
A: No! You can support projects as a guest. Just enter your name and email for receipts. However, creating a free account lets you track all your support, see project updates, save payment methods for faster future donations, and access your impact dashboard.
Q: Are donations tax-deductible?
A: OpnFundr is not a registered 501(c)(3) charity, so donations are generally not tax-deductible. Donations are contributions to support projects, similar to tips or crowdfunding. Project creators may need to report donations as income. Consult a tax professional for advice specific to your situation.
Q: How do creators get paid?
A: Creators set up a Stripe Connect account when creating their first project. Funds go directly to their Stripe account, and they can withdraw to their bank account anytime once they reach the $20 minimum. Withdrawals typically arrive in 1-2 business days.
Q: Is my payment information secure?
A: Absolutely. We use Stripe, the same payment processor used by companies like Amazon, Uber, and millions of other businesses. Your card details are never stored on our servers. All payment data is encrypted and handled by Stripe's secure infrastructure.
