GiveSendGo Reviews

I like the idea behind the site, but the payment stuff has been testing my patience. I tried to make a donation and it failed twice, but then my card still showed a pending charge. Support eventually got back to me, but it took longer than I’d expect for something involving money. It’s not the worst experience ever, but it definitely makes me hesitate to use the site again

Am I the only one who found the campaign verification process way more frustrating than it needed to be? I submitted everything and then it just kind of sat there with no real updates. When I reached out to support, the replies were vague and didn’t give me clear next steps. It felt like I was just waiting around and guessing what to do, which ended up wasting a lot of my time

Not gonna lie, the refund process was just okay. I ended up having to open a dispute because the refund didn’t come through when I thought it would. Support did get back to me, but it took a few messages and some waiting before things were finally sorted. It worked out in the end, but I was hoping it would be a bit smoother

My main issue was that the fees didn’t feel very clear upfront. I kept getting the sense that the company was more focused on getting my money than being transparent about what I’d actually be paying. Maybe it was all listed somewhere, but it definitely didn’t feel easy or straightforward to find.

I used givesendgo recently and overall it was smooth. They had me verify a few things before I could donate, which I wasn’t totally expecting at the time, and I don’t remember all the steps exactly, but it felt like they were taking fraud prevention seriously. It was a little annoying in the moment, but also kind of reassuring. The site worked fine for me. I’d give it 4 stars because it could be faster, but I didn’t have any major issues.

The withdrawal did go through, but it took longer than I expected. I was counting on having the money sooner, and the delay kind of ruined my plans for the day. It wasn’t the worst experience ever, but the speed was just okay.

As someone who donates online often, I found the checkout process kind of annoying. The donation page kept freezing on me, which made it harder than it should’ve been to finish.

I used GiveSendGo once and, to be fair, the transaction did go through fine. But the whole time I had this weird feeling like I wasn’t getting the full picture. Some of the pages were a little vague, and it made me wonder what they weren’t saying upfront or how closely they were really checking the campaigns.

Maybe I’m overthinking it and everything is totally legit, but when money is involved I don’t want to be guessing. I’d feel better if the security details and trust signals were way more obvious instead of leaving me to assume there might be stuff happening behind the scenes.

I donated and didn’t hear much of anything afterward. I even emailed just asking for a simple update, but the reply I got wasn’t really clear. It’s not even about needing constant communication or anything like that, I just would’ve appreciated knowing what was going on. It kind of feels like keeping donors in the loop isn’t much of a priority here.

I signed up expecting my campaign to actually get some visibility, but it didn’t really feel that way once I started using it. The tools for getting seen felt weak, and half the time I couldn’t even tell if anyone was viewing my page. Setup was more confusing than I expected, and when I reached out for help, support took a while to get back to me. Overall, it kind of felt like they promised more than they delivered.

I had to wait a couple days before support got back to me. They did reply and they did fix the issue, so it wasn’t a bad experience or anything. It just felt a bit slow, slow enough that I noticed. Overall okay, just wish it had been quicker.

I can see that this platform has a clear purpose and would probably be helpful for people who connect with its faith-based approach. For me, though, the faith angle just didn’t really fit what I was looking for, so I had a hard time getting into it. Nothing against the platform itself, it just seems better suited for someone with different preferences than mine.

Setting this up was way more confusing than it needed to be. I figured it would be straightforward, but the whole process felt clunky and a bit ridiculous. It took longer than expected, which was annoying.
