Everything people ask before they start the loop. If yours isn’t here, the chat circle is right there in the corner.
elev8 is the Cause Financial Infrastructure platform for GivingTech. One platform with every way supporters already give, monthly, quarterly, annual, and one-time, plus the giving only elev8 creates: card-linked round-ups, sponsor give back, and employer matching. One roof, one login, one fee.
A supporter links the card already in their wallet, picks their cause, and lives their life. Every purchase rounds up, sponsors match it at 10 percent on average, and Smart Sweep moves it to the organization once a week in one clean line item. The supporter changes nothing. The organization feels everything.
No. Round-up apps do round-ups and stop there. elev8 runs the whole flow: round-ups, one-time gifts, recurring giving, power-ups, sponsor give back, employer matching, merchant rewards, and real-time data, all under one roof. On a $21.20 purchase a traditional round-up delivers $0.80. On elev8, with the average sponsor match, it delivers $2.92.
One fee. Not eight vendor invoices with eight logins behind them. The number depends on your organization’s size and program, and we would rather show you the math on your own donor base than publish a table that fits nobody. Book a walkthrough and bring your CFO.
Every eligible purchase on your linked card rounds up to the next dollar. Spend $99.20 and the transaction rounds to $100, with $0.80 set aside for your cause. Nothing is charged in the moment. Once a week, Smart Sweep moves the pooled change in one line item. The average card generates about $30 a month in round-ups alone.
Completely. Caps, cadence, and pause are yours from day one, and you can change your cause anytime from your dashboard. Round-ups are donor-controlled generosity, not merchant-controlled checkout charity.
Yes. elev8 is a Visa and Mastercard approved financial partner, card linking uses bank-grade security, and it happens inside your secure dashboard. We never collect card details by email or by form.
The moment you sign up, you give $10 and feel it instantly. Small but mighty. It makes you part of something from the first minute instead of waiting a month to see your first sweep.
Your giving, streaks, and milestones earn points, the way airlines reward flying and banks reward spending. The Marketplace is where points become rewards from partner retailers, and giving thresholds can enter you into drawings or ship rewards to your door. Specific rewards, point values, and drawing structures vary by program.
No, and it is not trying to. elev8 works alongside your system of record, not against it. One roof, one login, one fee refers to the giving experience, not your database. More giving flows through the systems you already own.
They keep giving exactly as they do today, nothing is disrupted. The difference is that the cards you already hold join the always-on loop too: round-ups every week, sponsor give back on everyday spend, all inside one total alongside the giving they already scheduled.
The average card on file generates about $30 a month in round-ups before a single sponsor dollar or employer match is counted. A thousand linked cards is roughly $30,000 a month of new giving, and our side-by-side projection shows what the full stack can do to an annual total.

Yes. IRS-compliant tax receipts are automated for every gift type, from the weekly sweep to the annual gift, so your donors get clean acknowledgment without your team lifting a finger.
Sponsors contribute 5 to 15 percent of everyday spend wherever their match is active, and the average runs at 10. A $100 purchase at 10 percent sends $10 to the cause at no cost to the supporter. Monthly ROI reports show spend, transactions, and dollars generated, which makes renewal the easy decision.
Your employees each choose the cause they love. You define the match and the monthly cap per employee, and their giving is matched automatically as it happens. Once a month, one sweep delivers everything, employee giving plus your match, to the organizations your people chose. No portals, no forms, nothing left unclaimed.
Hard metrics, monthly. Sponsors see spend, transactions, and dollars generated by their give back. Employers see participation, causes chosen, dollars matched, and delivered. Both get numbers strong enough to hand straight to a board.
The best partnerships start with hard questions. Bring yours, and we will bring your numbers.
