How Fees Work

We offer two options for handling Giving fees, all configured at the brand level in the WeSpire application; these fees should all be included in solution design with brands before implementation.

  1. The company covers all fees and maximizes impact to charity *WeSpire's recommendation
  2. The charity covers fees by seeing a reduction in their gift. This has a lower budget impact for the company and more predictable costs.
