DonateMate is a platform enhancing fundraising efforts by treating donations like products and offering various campaign options. It integrates with Shopify POS to accept in-person and online donations, and supports complex features such as tax and shipping.
The app enables Shopify stores to seamlessly integrate donation functionality, allowing customers to contribute custom amounts during checkout or via dedicated donation products. Its key features include round-up donations at checkout, flexible donation product options, and compatibility with both online stores and POS systems. The app is praised for its ease of setup, customization options, and unobtrusive integration into the cart page, which helps increase donation conversions without disrupting the shopping experience. A notable strength is the responsive and highly personalized customer support, which assists with troubleshooting, theme compatibility, and custom modifications. However, some users encountered technical glitches, such as front-end errors or setup inconsistencies, though these were typically resolved with support intervention. The app is particularly well-suited for nonprofits and charities seeking a lightweight, cost-effective solution for collecting donations. While most functionality works smoothly, occasional theme conflicts or setup issues may require developer assistance. The combination of reliable core features and exceptional support makes it a strong choice for donation-focused Shopify stores.

Great solution for accepting donations - very intuitive to install and great customer support if any minor bugs or confusion encountered!
After searching for months for a donation app that would fit out needs, I came across DonateMate. It was very easy to install and integrate on our POS, but the best part was how user friendly it was on the POS for my staff to use. We are a museum and our staff is not the most computer savvy, so finding something that was easy and stress free for them to use was amazing. Thanks, Ben, for a great and thoughtful product.
Great way to add a donation option to the shop! Owner is very helpful with questions too
Great app! We needed something quick and easy to set up with donations for our new website and this was easy to set up and get going. We needed some help with some options and styling, Ben reached out and got things going quickly and the app works great for us! The price is right for a new non profit as well.
Thanks for the lovely review, it was a pleasure working with you on your new project! -Ben
ShopDigest is an independent directory of Shopify work. Developers, agencies and experts publish the projects they’ve actually shipped — migrations, rebuilds, custom apps, headless storefronts — with the results attached.
For merchants, that means judging a partner on evidence instead of a sales page: browse real builds in your category and budget, then reach out directly. For builders, it means one profile that keeps working after the project ships.
No commissions, no pay-to-rank placements. The best work rises because people save and follow it.
