Our story
We built ralli so more of every dollar reaches the cause
Online fundraising was supposed to help ordinary people raise money for the things that matter. But somewhere along the way, fees started swallowing a third of every small contribution. We thought that was backwards — so we set out to fix it.
Why we built ralli
It started with a simple thought: almost everyone can afford a dollar. If giving came down to a single dollar, then anyone could help — and a cause backed by lots of people each giving a little could add up to something real.
But when we looked closely at how the existing platforms actually worked, we found something that stopped us in our tracks: on a small contribution, around 35% could disappear into fees before it ever reached the person it was meant for. A dollar given with the best of intentions arriving as a few cents. We thought, plainly — that's not fair.
So we set out to build something better: a platform that helps people in need receive the money they deserve, instead of handing a third of it to big corporations. That's the whole reason ralli exists.
We're a small, independent team, self-funded and building carefully. We'd rather earn your trust one honest campaign at a time than grow by taking more than our share.
One person. One dollar. One tap.
The heart of ralli is a simple belief: everyone is equal when they give. A single dollar from someone who has little can matter just as much as a large gift from someone who has plenty — so we made a dollar count, and we made giving as easy as a tap.
A dollar matters
No big minimum that quietly shuts people out. If a dollar is what you can give, that dollar is welcome — and almost all of it gets through.
Everyone is equal
Every supporter counts the same. It's the number of people who showed up for you that tells the story — not just the size of the cheques.
One tap to give
Giving should take seconds, not forms. One tap, done — so momentum never stalls at the checkout.
A payment structure built to get you the most
Most of the money lost in online fundraising isn't the platform's headline fee — it's the cost of moving the money. So we designed ralli's payments around that reality:
- 2%
One flat platform fee
We charge a simple 2% — no setup fees, no monthly fees, no tip requests. You always know exactly what ralli costs.
- •
The cheapest rail, chosen for you
Processing costs range from almost nothing on methods like crypto and local bank transfer, up to more on cards. We route each payment through the most cost-effective option available where the supporter is — and show supporters how to keep it low.
- •

Supporters can give from almost anywhere, and rallinever holds your money — a licensed payment partner moves funds directly to the people you're supporting.
