Questions and answers

Straight answers before you commit.

Straight answers for nonprofit leaders comparing donor CRMs, spreadsheets, and consultants.

Fit

How is this different from a donor CRM?

Donor CRMs track giving. Simply Foundations tracks giving and the rest of the organization — programs, grants, volunteers, events — in one connected system, with public websites and forms built in.

Fees

What happens to donation processing fees?

On paid plans, Simply Foundations adds 0% markup — you pay only the payment processor’s own fees. The math is on the pricing page, not in a footnote.

Supporters

Do donors and volunteers need accounts?

No. Giving, signing up, and registering all happen through public forms and pages — no logins, no passwords, no friction at the moment of generosity.

Migration

Can we move years of giving history?

Yes. Exports from donor CRMs and spreadsheet archives are what our data conversion service handles — cleaned, mapped, and verified with you, including campaign totals.

Pricing

What does it actually cost?

Free for your first 500 people, then flat monthly bands from $69 with unlimited users and your first published website included. Every price is on the pricing page — no quote call required.

Support

Who builds and supports Simply Foundations?

Simply Foundations is built and supported by the Simply360 team on the Simply360 platform — the same people who do the data conversions and setup, not a reseller.
