“I’ve checked out many – this is one of the best. Charitable is easy to use. It doesn’t confuse with a million and one setting and options. It installs quickly and without drama. Above all, the service is superb.”
Steven Bauwens
“I tried the plugin ‘Give’ first, but I just couldn’t get it to work, it would freeze my WP dashboard. I found this plugin which has the same feature that I could add campaigns with a specific donation option that I can add to my pages.”
“I tried “Give” before this plugin but I really couldn’t figure it out and found it frustrating. I didn’t experience any of the issues I had with Give with Charitable.”
“After years of working with high cost donation management companies, I decided to give Charitable a go. Not only does it offer almost every feature I was looking for at a fraction of what I was previously paying, but when I asked about the lack of a feature, it was implemented and released as an update within a week..”

Was unterscheidet Charitable von GiveWP?
Charitable wird von einem Team entwickelt, das die Herausforderungen und Bedürfnisse von gemeinnützigen Organisationen wie Ihrer versteht. Wir haben das Plugin speziell entwickelt, um die täglichen Bedürfnisse von gemeinnützigen Organisationen zu erfüllen und alle wesentlichen Fundraising-Tools auf einer Plattform bereitzustellen – ohne versteckte Gebühren, verwirrende Add-ons oder künstliche Einschränkungen.

What happened to GiveWP.com?
GiveWP.com has been shut down and now redirects to Liquid Web. On May 12, 2026, Liquid Web by Nexcess made an official announcement confirming the StellarWP brand is gone, and their WordPress plugin portfolio has been consolidated into four core products. Give is one of those four surviving products.
What does this mean for existing GiveWP users?
Here’s what you need to know:
Your existing plan is frozen. Nexcess says existing customers keep their current plans, pricing, and features, which will continue to receive updates and security patches.
However, your current plan only gives you access to your existing features, you won’t get new tiered plan features unless you upgrade and pay again.
If your subscription lapses, you lose your plan permanently. You’ll be forced onto a new plan starting at $199/year
The MemberDash integration for Give is being retired. It will only receive critical security patches through April 2027, after which you’re on your own All license keys, billing, and support have moved to software.liquidweb.com
Why should I consider switching from Give to Charitable?
Charitable is a WordPress fundraising plugin built exclusively for nonprofits — not a hosting company add-on. Here are the key reasons users are making the switch:
