Learn the difference between a DAF payment solution and a DAF widget

DAFpay is not a widget

If you already have a DAF donation tool other than those provided by Chariot (e.g., DAF Direct, DAF Widget, etc.), your donors are being redirected off your website to archaic login portals, and you have no data to track these gifts.

Improving DAF fundraising outcomes

Chariot invented DAFpay to greatly improve the current state of DAF fundraising. You can see some of the biggest differences highlighted below:

DAF widgets don't natively initiate grants from DAF portals on behalf of donors, leading to minutes of extra time and 12+ extra clicks, putting unnecessary and cumbersome roadblocks in front of what are likely some of your highest-value donors.


Not to mention the hours of extra time your staff is putting in to confirm, track, and process checks from Donor Advised Funds sporadically, and often anonymously, showing up in the mail.

Your cause deserves better, and it’s time for an upgrade!
