We have been using this app for the the past two months in our retail store and launched our online campaign this month. The Shopping Gives team is very responsive to any questions we have regarding installation and configuring the app as well working with to help set up the non-profits we want to support to ensure they are receiving their donations. Very supportive team and great to work with overall!

I had this app for a little bit before they started charging and don't get me wrong I think it's a great app but the reason I'm giving it 2 stars is that I HATE that they started charging out of nowhere. I'm still figuring out how to get sales in my store and I'm not gonna pay 29$ a month when I'm getting 1 sale a month. It makes no sense. What would make more sense is if they required me to pay after a bigger amount of sales or after making a certain amount of profit. Once I have a lot of sales I wouldn't mind paying at all. It's a great app but only worth it once you get sales and if I still had the donation part of it, I might get more sales. But I can't afford it until I get sales. See how difficult it is for us small business owners? So I'm gonna have to go with a different app, which stinks.
