Network for Good Contract & Terms

Network for Good offers three plans. Each plan depends on the number of contact for the donation of a fundraising campaign.

The first plan has a range of zero to 1000 contacts. This will cost a monthly fee of $200 billed annually. With this plan, the merchant still has access to all of NFG products and services, but the contacts are limited to just 1000 donors.

The second plan has a contact limit within the range of 1000 to 5000, and it costs $300 per month billed for a year. There is also access to all products and services.

The third and most expensive plan costs $400 per month billed annually. Here the contact limit is from 5,000 to 10,000 with access to all services and products.

Any campaign that exceeds the third plan will need a tailored strategy, and NFG will negotiate the price based on the number of contacts required.

Other pricing and fees include a professional coaching service of $250 per month. Benefits of this service include one on one sessions, strategic support for the fundraising, and an option to appeal review.

NFG does not charge for PCI compliance, but you can no longer cancel it once you pay the billed fee for a year.
