There are many cool things about CleverGiver, and we’d like to take this chance to highlight some of the key benefits of using our platform. We are certain that all kinds of our users (from shoppers to nonprofits) will appreciate these facts. So, without further ado, here are the 5 benefits of CleverGiver that we don’t want you to miss:

1. Complementing AmazonSmile

We share (and wholeheartedly support) the idea behind the AmazonSmile program: that of donating a portion of every dollar spent online. We also realize, though, that while AmazonSmile covers your purchases at Amazon, there are thousands of other online stores where you may want to benefit from the same concept.

So whether it is Bloomingdale’s or The Home Depot, Kohl’s or Cabela’s, we’ve got you covered! Having formed partnerships with thousands of online stores, beyond Amazon, we don’t even try to compete with AmazonSmile. What we do want to do is complement what they’re doing by helping you enjoy the same concept wherever you shop online. To give you a sneak peek of what to expect, here’s what we’re currently capable of paying back to you on purchases at various online stores:

• • 1.2% at Apple.com
  • 2.4% at Walmart.com
  • 3% at Target
  • 3.6% at Lowe’s
  • 4.2% at Wayfair
  • 4.2% at Microsoft
  • 6% at Disney
  • 30% at LifeLock
  • …and up to 40% at 3,300+ other participating stores!

2. Matching First-Purchase Cashback

We care about the organizations you care about. To show this, we’re enabling our users with a way to support more than 1.8 million of nonprofits nation-wide, but it doesn’t stop there. To show you that we truly care, we ensure that each shopper’s first purchase cashback is 100% matched by CleverGiver — doubling the amount (available for donations) in the shopper’s account.

Here is how it would look on the shopper’s reporting ledger:

3. Shoppers Don’t Pay a Penny More

Whenever you shop with your favorite brands through CleverGiver, you do not pay more than you would’ve paid going to their websites directly. We don’t have any markups. There is no way for us to have any, as no transaction happens at our website. We merely pass the shopper on to the respective merchant’s website which is where the transaction occurs.

CleverGiver donates out of the commissions that we receive from these brands, sharing the larger chunk of their revenue with the nonprofits supported by their users.

4. Ability to Support Multiple Nonprofits

Unlike all other similar services (which allow you to support only one nonprofit at a time), we went a step farther. We understand that limiting anyone to supporting only one nonprofit isn’t too convenient. You may want support multiple nonprofits at the same time.

Keeping the above in mind, CleverGiver’s technology allows each shopper to designate up to 3 nonprofits to support, including the exact percentage of funds that should go to each. And if this weren’t cool enough, there’s also a fourth option — that of taking the money out as cashback.

If you were to select your three nonprofits, setting the desired percentages for each, here is how your Giving Chart may end up looking:

5. Generous Referral and Welcome Bonuses

Finally, we’ve set up generous rewards for those users of ours who can referring new shoppers (new members without previous or existing accounts) to us.

Every user gets access to a custom referral link which can be used in emails or on social media, or wherever you feel fit… And as soon as your referral accumulates $7.00 in CleverGiver Credit from purchases (not in other referral bonuses), both you and your referral get $7.00 each.
