Loved this app. It worked so well for us until they started charging a monthly fee that is quite expensive for our small business. We loved that this app allowed us to donate a percentage of sales to local charities and would continue to stay but the fee is too expensive for us!

I had this app for a little bit before they started charging and don't get me wrong I think it's a great app but the reason I'm giving it 2 stars is that I HATE that they started charging out of nowhere. I'm still figuring out how to get sales in my store and I'm not gonna pay 29$ a month when I'm getting 1 sale a month. It makes no sense. What would make more sense is if they required me to pay after a bigger amount of sales or after making a certain amount of profit. Once I have a lot of sales I wouldn't mind paying at all. It's a great app but only worth it once you get sales and if I still had the donation part of it, I might get more sales. But I can't afford it until I get sales. See how difficult it is for us small business owners? So I'm gonna have to go with a different app, which stinks.

Imagine charging subscriptions AND taking a fee to let businesses do good in the world. What a joke. Worked great before they started double dipping to buy themselves some shiny new toys.

Since they replied saying they aren't double dipping.. here is a quote from THEIR site:

$29
per
month

Start trial
This includes:
.5% (half percent) of order total Donation Transaction Fee per donation

So they aren't taking from the donations, which is nice. But they are charging monthly, and taking a .5% of EVERY ORDER TOTAL. Greedy are we?

I want to note that 100% of the donations pledged go to the nonprofit. We never deduct fees from donations.
