September 2, 2026 – St. Petersburg, FL — Momentive Software, the leading technology partner accelerating innovation and powering the future for mission-driven organizations, today announced the launch of Pay-As-You-Go pricing for GiveSmart, its fundraising platform for nonprofits, schools, and foundations. The new option allows organizations to access the full GiveSmart Events & Fundraise platform with no annual upfront subscription fee, paying instead a clearly disclosed transaction fee when payments are processed.
The launch is a direct response to market demand and feedback from prospective clients, for whom upfront software costs have stood in the way of adopting professional fundraising tools. Pay-As-You-Go is designed specifically for smaller and newer nonprofits, single-event organizations, and price-sensitive organizations that cannot commit to an annual fee, offering zero-barrier entry to the platform with a transaction fee that is disclosed before signup, documented in the client agreement, and applied transparently at checkout.
“We have heard consistently from nonprofits that they want the tools, support, and results GiveSmart delivers, but the annual subscription fee stands in the way when budgets are tight or a fundraising program is just getting started,” said Ravi Venkatesan, CEO of Momentive Software. “Pay-As-You-Go reflects our commitment to serving those organizations on their own terms. We wanted to build something where clients can get started with complete confidence — full platform access from day one, a known rate before they sign, and no surprises at checkout. Being transparent about how our pricing works is fundamental to being a genuine partner to mission-driven organizations, and this model is a direct reflection of that.”
Pay-As-You-Go is the second option under GiveSmart’s Flex Pricing offering, joining the existing Annual Fee Subscription model. Both options provide identical access to the GiveSmart Events & Fundraise platform — mobile bidding and silent auctions, online ticketing and guest management, peer-to-peer fundraising campaigns, donation forms, recurring giving, and post-event reporting — as well as a dedicated Client Success Manager, chat, phone, and email support, access to the GiveSmart Help Center, and professional implementation services.
GiveSmart Pay-As-You-Go is now available. Additional information, including plan details, can be accessed at https://www.givesmart.com/plans/.
