About donate.pet

donate.pet is an independent non-profit initiative developed in our spare time. Every donation goes straight to the animals — no middleman, no fund holding.

How it works

Direct to the cause

Your money goes directly to the shelter's bank account via Stripe Connect. We never hold or redistribute funds.

Verified partners

Participating organizations may undergo verification for legal registration, bank account ownership, and animal welfare standards.

Guardian feature

Become a guardian of a specific animal with a monthly donation and follow their journey.

Transparent fees

0% platform fee — donate.pet is a non-profit initiative. Standard Stripe payment processing fees apply (~1.4% + €0.25) and go directly to Stripe, not to us. All fees shown clearly before you pay.
