The thousands of high-impact 501(c)(3) organizations and their supporters using Ziggby to fundraise for meaningful causes can now seamlessly accept Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) donations online—thanks to a powerful new integration with Chariot. Chariot powers DAFpay, the world’s first fully digital DAF payment solution, and today, Ziggby is excited to announce that this integration is officially live.
This new feature allows DAFpay to be automatically enabled on all eligible Ziggby donation forms, giving nonprofits immediate access to faster, more streamlined DAF giving with zero setup required. Donors can now complete a DAF gift in just a few clicks, directly from their preferred provider, within seconds.
To help organizations accelerate DAF gift payouts, Ziggby encourages nonprofits to claim their free Chariot account at dashboard.givechariot.com/signup. If you'd prefer to opt out of DAFpay, you can do so at any time by adjusting your campaign settings or contacting Ziggby support.
DAFs are the fastest-growing vehicle in philanthropy today, expanding from just 7% of total charitable contributions in 2017 to 17% in 2022, and now represent over $250 billion in assets under management. In 2023 alone, $54 billion was granted from DAFs to nonprofits — yet much of that giving remains disconnected from digital-first campaigns.
With DAFpay, that changes.
Donors can now issue a grant from their DAF in under 15 seconds with just 3 clicks—right from a Ziggby-powered fundraising page. Nonprofits will receive immediate confirmation and donor contact details, making it easier than ever to acknowledge gifts and build lasting donor relationships. All data collected on Ziggby donation forms remains fully accessible in the Ziggby dashboard.
And the impact is substantial: in 2023, the average DAF gift exceeded $4,600, making it 24x larger than a typical credit card donation. DAF donors are often an organization's most committed supporters, which makes providing a seamless giving experience more important than ever.
Thanks to the native DAFpay integration, Ziggby users can now unlock this high-impact giving channel—without any extra work.
