What does it cost to use the ASF fundraising platform?
Our platform is free to sign up and use – there are no setup or account fees involved!
As a small non-profit organisation, we do retain a small percentage of all donations to cover the costs of running a fundraising platform and to provide fundraising support to thousands of organisations, clubs and individual fundraisers.
Unlike traditional charities that often retain 25-45%, we retain just 5% to cover our platform costs, compliance, and support services. That means 95 cents of every dollar you donate or raise goes straight to developing sport in Australia.
We've built our entire organisation around one principle: maximizing the funds that reach sporting projects while providing a world-class fundraising platform, dedicated local support, and handling all the regulatory complexity for our fundraisers.
That's why we're upfront about costs – and why we'll always notify our community if this ever changes.

Helping you keep more of every donation
To help donors make a bigger impact and so you can keep more of every donation, we offer every donor the chance to help cover the cost of fundraising. When your supporters choose to cover fundraising costs, more of their intended donation goes straight to your cause.
A simple way to maximise the impact of every contribution.
