| With Empire + Cloud Donor Manager | Typical donor software | |
|---|---|---|
| Software | Included when you process with Empire, no platform fee | Monthly subscription, often plus add-on SKUs |
| Card processing | Quoted by a payments company to your volume | Often a published flat (e.g. Bloomerang lists 2.2–2.9% + $0.30) |
| Contacts | 0 per-record pricing | Tiers that jump as the list grows |
| In-person / auctions / volunteers | Native to the platform | Often extra modules or a third party |
