There are a lot of other fundraising platforms out there, and they all blend together in our mind. We don't want to come across as arrogant ... we've just never been impressed with the tools that exist.The 'software for nonprofits' industry has lagged behind in innovation and user experience for decades. People are used to elegant web design in every other area of their life. Uber, Venmo, Amazon, Apple, Slack -- these are the companies that we pay attention to as far as building elegant tools and features that make sense.
Our focus, as a company, is on excellence. On constant iteration and innovation. On obsessing over your experience and your donors' experience. For us, there are five components that we dial in on -- things we care about where we stand apart from anyone else in the industry:
1. Price - Staying free for nonprofits - and always taking 0% of dollars raised.
2. User Experience - Gorgeous, effective, intuitive web design. We build our platform with the latest trends in e-commerce in mind, making for a simple and enjoyable user experience for donors.
3. Ease of use - You, and your donors, need to spend as little time as possible learning a new system. Everything on BetterWorld needs to be incredibly simple, straightforward, and easy to use.
4. Automation - Nonprofit leaders are busy, and have 1,000 other things to do. We obsess over automation that saves you dozens of hours, and removes as many tedious, manual tasks as possible.
5. Interconnectedness - All of our tools are interconnected and made to work together, leading to a seamless customer experience. For example, if you buy a ticket for an event, you are already set up to participate in a silent auction, make a donation etc.
BetterWorld is the fastest growing platform for nonprofits in the world. We hope you'll give us a shot. Let us show you the difference that better tools make.
