Flipcause collapsed. Your nonprofit doesn't have to.
We rescue your donor data before it's gone, then rebuild your giving on your own Stripe account — your donors, your funds, your website. Live again in about 7 days. The free data rescue starts today.
Flipcause isn't coming back
This isn't an outage. It's a bankruptcy, a liquidation, and a new owner running the same platform under a new name.

You should never have to trust a platform with your money again.
Flipcause failed because it sat between you and your donors and held your funds. The fix isn't a different middleman — it's no middleman at all.
Switch to us vs. staying on DONATION Pro
Software4Nonprofits bought Flipcause and relaunched it as DONATION Pro. Here's the honest comparison — so you can decide with clear eyes.
| Flipcause Rescue → your own Stripe | DONATION Pro (Software4Nonprofits) | |
|---|---|---|
| Whose platform is it | Yours — your own Stripe & site, fully portable | The same Flipcause platform, new owner |
| Who owns the payment account | You — your own Stripe, take it anywhere | Inside their ecosystem |
| Processing your donors pay | 2.9% + 30¢ (standard Stripe) | 4.9% + 30¢ (donor-covered) |
| The withheld $29M | We help you document a trustee claim | Sent to the bankruptcy trustee — not refunded |
| Your donor data | Exported & owned by you | Reinstated inside their platform |
| What it asks of you | Own everything. Never trapped again. | Sign back in and trust the platform again |
No knock on Software4Nonprofits — they're a real company. But after living through a collapse, the safest thing you can own is your own Stripe. Your data is safe with us. You'll own everything. We've got your back.
One service. Three steps. You own it all.

We're rescuing NCRBC right now — a real Illinois nonprofit caught in the collapse.
The North Central Regional Betterment Coalition ran its giving (including a recurring "sponsor a child a book a month" program) on Flipcause. We're exporting their data and rebuilding their donations on their own Stripe — so their supporters can give again, and the coalition owns every record.
That's the exact playbook we'll run for you.
What nonprofits are asking
Can I still get my data out of Flipcause?
Often yes — but it's gotten unreliable as the platform winds down, and export has been throttled. That's exactly why we move fast and do it for you. We start the moment you give us access. See the free data-rescue guide.
Will my recurring donors transfer automatically?
No — and that's the hard truth no one wants to say. Recurring donors' stored cards were held in Flipcause's payment system and can't be moved. But we export the full recurring list and write you a re-enrollment campaign so donors can restart in two clicks on your new form.
What about the money Flipcause owes us?
With the case now in Chapter 7 liquidation, recovery is uncertain and handled through the bankruptcy trustee — separate from getting you running again. We help you document everything for any claim, but our job is getting your future donations flowing safely.
Isn't "DONATION Pro" the easy fix — just stay put?
DONATION Pro is the same Flipcause platform under new ownership (Software4Nonprofits). They restored the software — but the withheld donations are still handled through the bankruptcy trustee, not refunded, and their donor-paid processing runs 4.9% + 30¢. With us you move to your own Stripe at 2.9% + 30¢, fully portable, owning your data and donors. After a collapse, owning it yourself beats re-trusting the platform. See the full comparison.
Do I need to be technical?
Not at all. It's fully done-for-you. You give us your Flipcause access and set up (or hand us) a Stripe account; we handle the rest and walk you through going live.
How fast, really?
The free data rescue starts immediately. The rebuild goes live within about 7 days of getting your data and Stripe access — guaranteed, or it's free.
