Customer stories

Real platforms, real trust built in

The API is already powering donor experiences across fundraising apps, giving platforms, and workplace campaigns. Here is how our partners are putting it to work.

Who's building with the API

If you're building something that helps people find, evaluate, or give to nonprofits, there's a good chance it already fits.

Donor-advised fund platforms

Equip advisors with the insights they need for confident grant recommendations.

Fundraising and giving apps

Build trust and drive donations with recognizable ratings in your giving flow.

CSR and workplace giving platforms

Offer a vetted list of nonprofits for workplace campaigns and matching gifts.

Academic and research use

Access structured nonprofit data for research, teaching, and analysis of the charitable sector.

"Donors understand if it's verified, if it's legitimate, if it has been vetted. It's a win-win for everyone."

— Panos Kokmotos, Founder, Givelink

Fundraising & giving platform

Givelink: Turning generosity into something you can see

Givelink lets donors buy exactly what a local nonprofit needs and track their gift all the way to impact. Charity Navigator ratings give donors the trust to act — and give nonprofits a reason to get more transparent.

"We put it off for months, and then when we got it done in a week, I thought, 'We should have done this months ago.'"

— Rebekah Sedaca, Startup Ops Lead, RoundUp

One-week integration

Fundraising & giving platform

RoundUp: Building trust into everyday giving, 5,000+ nonprofits at a time

RoundUp helps donors round up everyday purchases into recurring nonprofit gifts. When they opened up discovery beyond nonprofits donors already knew, Charity Navigator ratings became the trust signal that made it work.
