"Rounding up my credit card purchases to donate has been the most effortless way to give back – I don’t even notice the extra cents, but they add up to real impact over time. It feels good to know that every purchase I make is also sprinkling a little support on my child’s educational community!”
Myra Blake
RoundUp.org Donor
"I love that my spare change is going to a place I care about—and that I get to choose. Spreading out my giving over time feels so much more doable than trying to make a big contribution all at once. It’s an easy way to support [my favorite nonprofit] in a consistent, meaningful way.”
Lisa Bohn

"I love that RoundUp automatically sends the money to MCS with no extra effort on my part! Now when I’m using my registered credit card for everyday purchases, I know that it counts. The spare change will make a big impact for our school, and its super easy to sign up--just takes 30 seconds!”
Reshma Borkar

"I have been rounding up at my local co-op for a while now, and have always been impressed at how much those spare cents add up. Now I have the opportunity to give to another cause I love--without even thinking about it! Setup was super fast and easy, and I am thrilled to be supporting this community every day, with no extra effort!”

RoundUp.org is revolutionizing the 'round up for charity' movement by allowing any person or company to automatically round up all of the purchases made on an eligible Visa or Mastercard to the next whole dollar amount, and to direct those funds to virtually any nonprofit of their choice. Donors can select from over 1.3 million nonprofits across the U.S., including schools, universities, parent associations, churches, sports clubs, museums, pet shelters, advocacy groups, community service providers, and more.
For nonprofits, RoundUp.org offers the simplest round-up program available; no sign-up, no extra staff, no expenses, and no technical expertise required. We provide each nonprofit with a ready-to-use QR code and web link to their non-profit page where donors can select the card they want to use to round up for the nonprofit. Nonprofits can promote the link or QR code via email, newsletters, printed material, or on social media. Supporters, whether individuals or businesses, can also share the QR code with their audiences to support the nonprofit even further. RoundUp.org makes predictable, recurring donations brilliantly simple and efficient for nonprofits.
Donors can search for a nonprofit on RoundUp.org or follow a nonprofit-specific URL or QR code. Donors then link their Visa or Mastercard information to start rounding up their purchases into monthly donations. These donations go first to a Donor Advised Fund called Our Change Foundation (“OCF”) which will then send your contribution to the nonprofit you designated, unless that nonprofit is ineligible. On the 1st of each month, RoundUp.org charges the linked card one-time for the total amount of the RoundUps from each purchase made during the prior month. The donation amount, net of fees, is sent to our charitable distribution partner, Our Change Foundation, a United States 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity and donor-advised fund, and is made available to the nonprofit for withdrawal within 15 days subject to RoundUp.org’s Terms of Service.
Absolutely! Every nonprofit on RoundUp.org has a unique QR code and URL that you can share via text, email, or social media, to encourage others to join the cause. And, it's best to get the word out quickly because donors can only support one nonprofit at a time on RoundUp.org.
Yes. We’ll provide tax receipts for your donations, which can be used when filing your taxes.
