RallyUp vs.
DonorPerfect

No — DonorPerfect has no $0 option and no published list price; its Core, Plus and Pro plans are quote-only, and auction functionality through ReadySetAuction is priced at $1,099–$1,999/year. It does not use a donor-tipping model; instead donors can optionally add extra to help cover processing costs. RallyUp, by contrast, has a permanently free plan with a 0% platform fee and optional donor tips, and RallyUp Donation Pages are free with no donor tipping required at all. If you prefer tipping off entirely, RallyUp’s Flex plan charges 2.9%–6.9% per Component with several Components at 0% and no contract or subscription.

DonorPerfect is priced by personalized quote — Core, Plus and Pro carry no published list price — and payment processing fees apply on top; auctions through ReadySetAuction are listed separately at $1,099–$1,999/year. That means a sales conversation before you know your number. RallyUp publishes its pricing instead: a free plan at 0% platform fee with optional donor tips, or Flex at 2.9% for Events and Store, 4.9% for Auctions, A-Thons and Crowdfunding, 6.9% for Raffles and Sweepstakes, and 0% for Donation Pages, Peer-to-Peer and Livestreaming. Processing is 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction, or 1.9% + $0.30 for ACH. See RallyUp pricing.

Not as an online ticket sale. On DonorPerfect, raffle tickets can only be recorded by staff inside the ReadySetAuction Control Center, and the vendor states that it does not facilitate raffle ticket sales online — there is no 50/50 format, no custom split and no drawing tool. RallyUp runs four raffle formats natively: Single-Prize, Multi-Prize, 50/50 and Enhanced 50/50 with your own split, such as 60/40. RallyUp performs the randomized drawing inside the platform, notifies the winner, and shows the winner’s live prize total on the campaign page.

RallyUp is built for the room. Every guest gets one tab all night that settles in a single charge through Event Balances, alongside auctioneer-led live auctions, Paddle Raise+, Fund-a-Need and Live Display on the big screen. DonorPerfect reaches live auctions through ReadySetAuction, with cashiering that records winning bids in person and a consolidated guest invoice, but an auctioneer workflow, paddle numbers and a dedicated paddle-raise module are not documented. RallyUp also lets you rehearse the whole night with real test card transactions in Power Preview before you publish, which DonorPerfect does not document.

Yes, through ReadySetAuction, now part of the DonorPerfect ecosystem: an event site covering the catalog, tickets and donations, cashiering for in-person winning bids, and a combined guest invoice. It is a real capability, and it is priced separately at $1,099–$1,999/year. RallyUp includes Auctions as one of 12+ Components you can stack in a single campaign — with a $100 platform-fee cap per auction item on Flex, no matter how high the winning bid — plus Raffles, Sweepstakes, Store, A-Thons and Galas & Events in the same fundraiser.

RallyUp is the direct answer if your gap is campaign types rather than donor records. DonorPerfect is limited on that front — no Raffles, A-Thons, Sweepstakes, Store, Fund-a-Need, Event Balances or Paddle Raise+ — and its combined campaigns rely on integrated tools rather than one mix-and-match campaign page. RallyUp stacks 12+ Components into one campaign with one URL and one checkout, and organizations that combine campaign types raise 38% more on average. You can launch from an Instant Fundraiser Template in 15–20 minutes or have RallyUp’s experts build it free at Create My Campaign.
