Does anyone know which is the best free fund raising website, Ive looked at go fund me and its free apart from this on go fund me.
\\lease note that payment processing fees are different from platform fees.

While GoFundMe charges fundraisers a 0% platform fee, standard processing fees to GuFundMe are charged by payment processors like WePay and PayPal. Recipients are charged a small fee (2.9% + $.30 per transaction) to allow for credit card processing and safe transfer of funds.//

Just giving.

My wife has grown her hair really really long and is planning on getting it cut and donating the hair to make wigs for children with cancer and also donating the money she raises from the cut to the same charity.

Total Giving is definitely free, and well respected based in UK. Have a look and see if it fits your needs.

My mate uses it as does a local charity I support.

To add ....

Payment provider or processor fees and the fees charged by the credit or debit card companies, or by Pay Pal to the site for each transaction. No one can avoid those, but most sites then add their fee which varies from site to site. The one I have suggested charge no fees of their own. Just Giving is reputed to be one of the most expensive.

Thank you for you answers, I went with just giving after reading this.

\\Here’s how we charge our 5% fee
You donate £10.00, we deduct our 5% fee along with any card charges from our payment partners, and send the rest to the charity that week.
We boost your donation by 25% by reclaiming Gift Aid from the government - it usually takes about a month. We then deduct our 5% fee and automatically send the rest over to the charity,
So for every £10.00 you give, the charity gets £11.74.
Here's how it works in a bit more detail:





That's correct, but on other sites the amount would be over £12 because there would be no or less than 5% fee.

They all claim the gift aid for you.
they can only claim it if the donors allow so that's a bit of a red herring
