Nonprofit Consultants: Earn for Every Client You Send to CoreCause.
If your consulting engagements involve recommending tools to nonprofit clients, the CoreCause Consultant Partner Program turns those recommendations into ongoing revenue. Refer once, earn every month the client processes donations.
How the Consultant Partner Program Works
Designed around how nonprofit consultants actually engage with clients. Not a generic affiliate scheme, not a quota-driven sales role.
1. Sign up & onboard
Short signup via the Talk to Sales form. We confirm your consulting focus (fundraising strategy, ops, capacity building, faith), set up your introduction email to sales@corecommerce.com, and walk through the program in a 20-minute call. Most consultants are set up within 1 business day.
2. Refer a client org
When you recommend a fundraising platform in an engagement, point the client to CoreCause through your introduction to sales@corecommerce.com. Every signup is attributed to you for the lifetime of the account.
3. Earn ongoing revenue
You earn a monthly share for every client account that stays on CoreCause. Not a one-time bounty. As your consulting practice grows, the residual book compounds underneath it.
Disclosure-friendly
The program is built to be disclosed openly to your client. Same model your peers use with CRM vendors, grant-management software, and bookkeeping tools. Transparent referral, no awkward backroom arrangement.
Flexible delivery arrangements
If you want to deliver CoreCause as part of your service (build the donation page, set up recurring, train staff), mention it in your intro email. We tailor the partner arrangement to fit your delivery model.
We do the implementation
You stay in your strategic-advisor role. Our team handles the platform demo, application, underwriting, and onboarding for the nonprofit you refer. You collect ongoing without becoming a software trainer.
Direct partner reporting
Monthly residual statements come direct from our partner team via email. Real humans on the partner side, not a ticketing queue. Ask us about pending referrals any time and you will get a real answer.
No quotas, no exclusivity
Refer two clients a year or twenty. No monthly minimums to maintain status. No requirement to recommend only CoreCause. Your professional independence stays your own.
Direct partner support
You get a real human on the partner team. When a referred client has a question or hits a wrinkle, you have a direct line into CoreCommerce, not a support ticket gauntlet.

Frequently asked questions
Why Consultants Recommend CoreCause
The six things consultants tell us they care about most when picking which fundraising platform to put on the table for a client.
No donor tipping. Ever.
The nonprofits you refer never see their donors prompted to add a percentage on top of their gift to cover platform costs. The full donation goes to programs and services. Givebutter's tip prompt and Donorbox's platform fees both quietly redirect donor dollars away from the mission.
Donors can cover the fees.
At checkout, donors can choose to cover the processing fee on their gift. When they do, 100% of what they give reaches the nonprofit. CoreCause never prompts donors to tip the platform.
Automatic Card Updater.
When a recurring supporter's card expires or gets replaced, CoreCause refreshes it through the card networks automatically. Most platforms make you chase them to re-enter their card. We do not.
Next-business-day payouts.
Donations clear to your account by the next business day. Many donation platforms take several days to deposit, and some payout services take even longer.
Real human support.
Email within one business hour. Real phone support. Real account managers. Not a chatbot that loops you back to a help article when something breaks during a campaign.
