Payment Processing for Canadian Organizations

One important decision you’ll need to make is choosing your payment processing partner. Rest assured that we have solutions for Canadian clients. You will accept donations in CAD with no foreign transaction or currency conversion fees.

Our fundraising platform integrates with Stripe for CAD processing. Stripe provides a discount for Canadian registered charities, flat-rate credit card processing fees, and no set-up or monthly fees.

Cheques can also be accepted with no fees.

Canada Revenue Agency Official Tax Receipts

Canadian charities can provide Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) approved electronic receipts to donors. These are auto-generated with each approved donation when enabled. Organizations can customize the receipts with your organization’s branding and information.

According to the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA), tax receipts can only be sent for donations where the donor did not receive goods or services in exchange. The system will automatically detect the kind of donation the donor made on your fundraiser and send them a tax receipt accordingly.

Examples of CRA eligible donations

Donations on a crowdfunding campaign that doesn’t offer perks
One-time or recurring donations on a donation page
Per-unit and flat amount donations on an Athon fundraiser
Direct donations (without receiving goods or services in exchange) on other campaign types

Examples of CRA ineligible donations

Raffle entry purchases
Item purchases on a sale fundraiser
Bids on auction items
Ticket purchases on an event campaign

Crowdfunding in Canada

Charity crowdfunding campaigns are big in Canada, and for a good reason – they work! If your organization is looking for an innovative way to fundraise for your mission while engaging your supporters, crowdfunding may be just the solution you’ve been looking for.

Crowdfunding is the practice of funding a project or initiative by raising money from a large number of people. Crowdfunding for nonprofits allows individuals to reach out to their network to raise funds while acting on behalf of an organization they feel passionate about. Crowdfunding may also be referred to as peer-to-peer fundraising because of the way in which people ask their peers for financial support for a charity’s mission.
