DonateYou Fees – Martin Campaign
Transparency You Can Trust
At DonateYou, we’re committed to transparency.
When you support a campaign, for example, let’s say Martin’s, we make it easy to see exactly where your money is going, and why.
Your generosity makes a real difference. To keep our platform secure, efficient, and fair, a small portion of each donation helps cover necessary fees.
🧾 Fee Breakdown
| Fee Type | Amount | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Platform Fee | 5% of donation total | Supports site maintenance, fraud protection, and campaign verification. |
| Payment Processing | 2.9% + $0.25 per donation | Covers credit card, bank fees, encryption, and secure payment processing. |
💡 This fee of 2.9% + 0.25 is automatically deducted when you donate. 5% is deducted when Martin, the virtual campaign owner, receives the campaign donation amount.
