How do they stack up?

Keela vs. CanadaHelps

Keela has some interesting features and impressive interface but it may be pricey and overwhelming for small charities that make up 90% of Canada's registered charities.

Learn how Keela works and how CanadaHelps stacks up with better donation forms, events and P2P solutions and excellent support if you ever run into any problems.

What are the fees?

We know the bottom line is incredibly important for your charity, so we make our fees simple and easy to understand, without any additional charges for things like support.

Keela charges 2.2% + $0.30 for Visa or Mastercard and 3.2% + $0.30 for AMEX. Premium support is an extra charge.

CanadaHelps charges 3.75% for one-time donations and 3.5% for monthly donations with no additional costs for charities if you ever need to reach out.

What are the features?

Keela is Donor Management System forward and can help charities with donor management and insights. On the other hand, you can use what you need with CanadaHelps and create donation forms, events or P2P fundraising all on the same platform.

Keela is first and foremost a donor management system provider with some fundraising solutions.

CanadaHelps provides a full fundraising solution for charities but you can use what you need depending on your charity.

CanadaHelps has the most customizable form that allows you to take control of the donor experience from brand colours, to logo, imagery and fonts.

Best practices are incorporated into every step of the CanadaHelps donation form such as mobile optimization, fewer steps and a streamlined look.

What are other differences?

CanadaHelps offers responsive, bilingual support for you to call in or email if you ever have an issue. Support is never extra.

We provide free education and resources so charities can continue learning about best practices in fundraising and expanding their digital capacity.

We run annual campaigns such as GivingTuesday, Make It Monthly and the Great Canadian Giving Challenge to help charities to raise more.

Client
Testimonials

Jennifer Yetman

Kids Eat Smart Foundation

Our Foundation uses the custom online donation forms to assist us in our fundraising efforts. They are easy to set up and are user friendly for our donors. It is a wonderful tool to use.

Courtney McLaughlin

Calgary Public Library Foundation

Prior to joining CanadaHelps, our organization faced the problem many nonprofits do - how do we collect donations easily, quickly issue tax receipts and make it all look attractive, with our limited resources and small team? Canada Helps solved all these problems! CanadaHelps provides a holistic solution to donation management.

Brandon Dean

Critter Care Wildlife Society

It's easy to set up campaigns and funds. Being able to customize the forms to match our brand was a huge bonus for us.

Jeff Adams

Lifewater Canada

We wanted to offer our donors a seamless shift from the pages on our site to the donation page on the Canada Helps site, plus donation options that were appropriate for our project needs and donors' preferences. We chose Canada Helps because it offered us the opportunity to develop a donation form that would be clearly identifiable as Lifewater Canada's form.
