Givebacks is here to help you maintain and grow your passive funding in 2023 and beyond. 

  • Givebacks is similar to Smile in a few ways.
    • A consumer signs up and adds their credit card for payment.
    • The consumer becomes a nonprofit "supporter" by selecting a cause from over 1.8 million 501c3 organizations.
    • Then the supporter's purchases trigger a merchant donation to their cause. 
    • Givebacks is the same, but that's where the similarities end and life gets a lot better!

There is so much more to Givebacks!

  • More Merchants: Givebacks has over 10,000 local restaurants and 15,000 online retailers participating, giving your supporters more places to dine, shop, and support your cause. Smile only gave supporters one place to shop at their own store.

  • Higher Donations: The average donation from Givebacks retailers is 1.5% and our restaurants donate 5%! (10X more than the highest Smile donation)
  • Active "Backer" Bonuses: We call our nonprofit supporters "Backers". We want to help you replace your lost Smile funds as quickly as possible. For a limited time, we are offering a $5.00 bonus donation for every new "active backer" that supports your cause. Note: Backers become "active" when they make their first qualified purchase from a Givebacks merchant.  

  • Local Card Linked Offers: Givebacks has over 10,000 local restaurants donating 5% to your cause when your backers pay with their credit card. All they have to do is pay with their card, no apps, no coupons, that's it. Your cause gets an automatic donation. There are 100+ national retailers offering in-store Givebacks as well. Supporters love "keeping it local".

  • Backer Transparency: Givebacks provides  a "Backer Tracker" that includes contact and engagement data. Causes can use their Givebacks data to thank passive supporters and tell them your story. Stories of positive social impact are what turns passive supporters into lifetime donors and champions for your cause.
    • Smile refused to share who was supporting causes. There is no way causes can reach out to their Smile supporters to give them alternative ways to support the cause. DO NOT LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN!
  • Transparency and Access to Funds: Once your cause surpasses $25 in Giveback donations, you will be able to access your funds at anytime. You can also see real time donation amounts for every Backer. Smile sent a quarterly payment with no details on how that payment was accumulated. 

  • Reenforcing the "Why": Givebacks puts your cause front-and-center throughout your Backer's giving experience. Every time they make a qualified purchase, they receive a "thank you" email and mobile notification. Your cause logo pops up every time they visit a site online that is offering Givebacks. Your cause also gets a customizable page that lives in your Backer's mobile and Givebacks desktop app so they are always connected to your mission. 

  • "Real People" Help you Transition from Smile 2 Givebacks: Givebacks has a dedicated Smile-2-Givebacks transition team ready and waiting to assist you. You can schedule a 1-on-1 meeting at anytime.
