Free for nonprofits

Free nonprofit software, powered by donor-covered giving.

Nonprofits should not have to choose between better systems and more mission work. Mission Ops gives nonprofits access to the core system for free, with revenue connected to donations processed through the platform.

The cost barrier

The problem is not that nonprofits do not want better tools.

Most nonprofit teams are already stretched. Another monthly software bill is hard to justify when every dollar is weighed against programs, staff, services, and community needs. But without the right systems, nonprofits lose capacity in other ways.

  • Donor follow-up gets missed.
  • Reports take too long to build.
  • Event history disappears after the event.
  • Grant deadlines create last-minute panic.
  • Board members do not know how to help.
  • Staff waste time rebuilding the same work over and over again.

Mission Ops is built to remove the software cost barrier so nonprofits can operate better, follow up faster, fundraise smarter, and protect more capacity for the mission.

The nonprofit should not have to pay more just to operate better.

The principle behind the free model

What you get

Free does not mean unsupported.

Mission Ops includes a guided setup process shaped by real brand, marketing, fundraising, and operational strategy — so your team starts with a system built around your mission, goals, annual plan, and existing work. Your nonprofit is not left alone to figure out what to do first.

The setup helps organize the foundation your team needs:

  • Mission, vision, and values
  • Brand language and communication style
  • Programs and services
  • Fundraising goals
  • Donor and sponsor categories
  • Events, auctions, and campaigns
  • Grant priorities and deadlines
  • Board structure and responsibilities
  • Existing documents, templates, reports, and assets

Your nonprofit does not need to come in perfectly organized. That is the point.

How it works

Core platform free. Funded by a small donor-covered fee.

The core platform is free for nonprofits. When donations are processed through Mission Ops, donors are asked to help cover a small platform cost as part of their gift.

In many cases, donors choose to cover that cost — helping the nonprofit keep the full value of the gift while using Mission Ops for free.

This helps fund the system while keeping the nonprofit's access free. The goal is to make better systems accessible to nonprofits that need more capacity, not another major software expense.

Built with donor trust

Flexible fee options, so donations are handled responsibly.

Donation-related costs should be clear, reasonable, and easy to understand. Mission Ops is being designed with flexible fee options the platform may include:

Donor-covered platform costs

Donors are asked to cover the platform fee as part of their gift.

Nonprofit-covered fees

The organization opts to absorb the platform cost instead of passing it on.

Split fee options

The platform fee is shared between donor and nonprofit.

Flat fees

A fixed dollar amount instead of a percentage of the gift.

Capped fees for larger gifts

A ceiling on the platform fee so major donations are not penalized.

Adjusted fee structures for major donations

Custom arrangements for stewardship-critical gifts above a threshold.

When you need more

What may cost extra later.

The core system is designed to stay free for nonprofits. As organizations grow, they may choose to add more advanced support or capacity:

  • Expanded storage
  • Additional AI usage
  • Advanced reporting
  • Deeper customization
  • Custom integrations
  • Strategic support
  • Hands-on implementation

Small nonprofits can start with what they need. Larger nonprofits can expand when they need more capacity. Mission Ops is built to grow with your organization, not overwhelm it on day one.

The bigger picture

Better systems should not be reserved for nonprofits with big budgets.

Too many nonprofits are expected to operate like larger organizations without the staff, tools, or budget to support the work behind the mission.

Mission Ops gives nonprofits a path to stronger operations, clearer reporting, better follow-up, smarter fundraising, and less chaos — without forcing them to choose between infrastructure and impact.
