Donation Processing Fees

We use Zeffy as our membership and donating platform because it allows donors to choose whether or not to cover processing fees. Any fee collected by Zeffy is completely optional and does not reduce your donation to the Bluegrass Music Association of Maine.

If you prefer not to support Zeffy’s mission of providing this service to the Bluegrass Music Association of Maine (and other great nonprofits), simply select “Other” when prompted.

You may then enter whatever amount you feel is reasonable to help cover credit card processing, web hosting, and related costs. Entering $0 is perfectly acceptable and will not affect your intended donation or the amount received by the Bluegrass Music Association of Maine in any way.
This approach ensures the Bluegrass Music Association of Maine receives your full intended donation, while giving donors the option to help cover processing costs if they choose.
