You love surprises, but not the kind that magically appear on your bill. We get it. Luckily, here at FGI, we’re completely open and honest about this type of thing. If your donation amount is over $10 per card, there is a transaction fee to make sure 100% of your donation reaches the charity of your choice.
If your donation amount is $10 or under per card, you’ll have the option to add a little extra to help cover this fee, for a $2 donation this will add $0.39 to your transaction total. The merchant fees increase over $10 to cover the third party fees we incur, this is to ensure 100% of donations go to charity. A service fee is applied when our gift card or virtual Mastercard feature is selected. This percentage based service fee is applied to the gift card or virtual Mastercard amount to cover third party costs incurred in providing the gift card and virtual Mastercard service, access and integrated delivery.
We’re working hard to reduce this fee, and with every card that’s sent we’re getting closer! Until then, it’s a small price to pay for the difference we’ll be making in people’s lives.
