What is Stripe?

Stripe is the global leader in secure online transactions, and payment processor used by Zeffy, allowing us to safely accept debit and credit cards around the world.

Is Stripe Secure?

Stripe is the global leader in secure online transactions, allowing us to accept debit and credit cards around the world in a completely secure way. Millions of organizations, such as UNICEF and other global NGOs, use Stripe. 
Anyone involved with the processing, transmission, or storage of card data must comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS). Stripe has been audited by an independent PCI Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) and is certified as a PCI Level 1 Service Provider. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry. 
 Visit stripe.com for more details on their privacy and data security policies.

How much does Stripe cost?

We use Stripe in our backend as a payment processor, but with Zeffy, it is 100% free.

Zeffy is 100% free for nonprofits. We cover 100% of the fees you would normally have to pay with Stripe, which includes banking fees and credit card transaction fees.

💡 If you already have a Stripe account, please think of it as completely separate. We cannot connect your existing Stripe account to Zeffy as this would prevent us from covering the transaction fees for you.

You will just need to connect your bank account number to Zeffy in order to receive payments. Making the connection through Zeffy is how we can cover 100% of the fees for you.
