Then how do you make money? What's the catch?
There's no catch at all! Our donation forms and ticketing services are offered through an alternative business model based on the generosity of the online community. That means that at the payment confirmation step, we offer donors the choice to support Simplyk by leaving a contribution. Over 50% of donors give, which allows us to provide our tools for free!
Do you contact donors?

No! Simplyk only sends receipts for tax purposes to all donors or purchasers of tickets who have had a receipt generated by Simplyk. The receipt is sent immediately upon purchase and again in January for tax purposes. We do not contact donors on any other occasion.

Do you share my donor or participant data with other organizations or companies?
No! We do not share your data and we are committed to ensuring its safety. Learn more here.

Where did the idea for Simplyk come from?

Our founders first built Simplyk in 2016 as a way to link volunteers to organizations. From there, they realized that charities did not have access to the the technology they needed. So they decided to create Simplyk fundraising platform, the first free payment platform for organizations. Read more about our story.
