Just the FAQs...

How long does it take to start my 501(c)3?

The IRS has created two paths to 501(c)3 tax-exempt status based on expected donations: 


  • Organizations confident that they will raise more than $50,000 in the current tax year, or any of the following two tax years (these qualify for our Enterprise Plan)
  • One for organizations with expected donations below $50,000/year (or do not have a clear path to exceed that amount (these qualify for our Express Plan)


 About 88% of our customers qualify for Express, while the other 12% choose Enterprise. The  IRS 501(c)3 designation is the same.


If you choose the Express Plan and then exceed your wildest fundraising dreams, there is no penalty, and you do not have to re-file a thing! You will simply report your donations to the IRS  in the following year as normal.


Your investment in service fees and government filing fees is visible on the following page when you click "get started".
