Nonprofits usually need the same core membership workflows as any organization, on a tighter budget, so the useful comparison is total operating cost rather than the monthly fee alone. Randel's standard platform price starts at US$ 200/month for up to 250 members, with no Randel commission on transactions. Nonprofits and NGOs can request special conditions, subject to eligibility verification. There is no fixed public discount; the applicable price is confirmed in a scoped quote.

A nonprofit membership platform has to support the same operations as any member organization: keeping records current, collecting recurring dues, running events and communicating with members. Before comparing prices, list the capabilities you actually need so you compare platforms on equal terms.
A low starting price can become expensive if every growth step adds another tool, a transaction percentage or an integration project. For a realistic comparison, estimate a full year of cost for each vendor at your current member count and at the size you expect to reach. The table below lists the main cost items and how Randel handles each one.
| Cost item | What to ask each vendor | Randel's approach |
|---|---|---|
| Platform subscription | How does price change as membership grows? | US$ 200/month up to 250 members, plus US$ 100/month per extra 250-member block |
| Transaction commission | Does the platform keep a share of dues or tickets? | No Randel commission on transactions |
| Payment processing | Which processor is used and whose account is it? | Your own Stripe account; Stripe fees apply separately |
| Implementation | Is setup quoted and approved before work starts? | Scoped quote approved before work starts |
| Data migration | Is migration available and how is it scoped? | Available when needed, defined in the scope |
| Training and consulting | How are training hours priced? | Pay-as-you-go 4-hour blocks at US$ 240 |
| Custom development | How are extra features estimated and billed? | Pay-as-you-go 8-hour blocks at US$ 360, estimated in advance |
| Support | Is support handled by people or only automated? | Human support included |
Randel publishes its standard pricing so every organization can estimate cost before a conversation: US$ 200/month for up to 250 members, with each additional block of 250 members adding US$ 100/month. You can use the pricing calculator to see the platform fee for your member count.
Nonprofits and NGOs can request special conditions. These are subject to eligibility verification and are not applied automatically, and there is no fixed public discount percentage. The team reviews the organization, its scope and its member capacity, and confirms the applicable price in the quote before implementation begins.
Vendors that offer nonprofit conditions usually ask for evidence of nonprofit status. What counts as evidence varies by country. In the United States, for example, the IRS explains the requirements for an organization to be recognized as a tax-exempt charitable organization under section 501(c)(3), and many vendors use a recognition like this as a reference point.
Randel may request proof of nonprofit or NGO status before applying special conditions. Because accepted evidence differs from country to country, prepare whatever official documentation applies in your jurisdiction and share it when you request a quote.
A clear request makes the eligibility review and the quote faster to agree on. The steps below reflect how Randel scopes any new organization, with the nonprofit review added.
Share your approximate member count, how you collect dues today, which events and meetings you run and which tools you want to replace.
Provide the official documentation that shows your nonprofit or NGO status in your country, if the team requests it.
Discuss configuration, any data migration and optional services, so the quote reflects what you actually need.
The applicable price, including any special conditions, is confirmed in the quote and approved before implementation starts.
The answers to these questions often matter more than the headline price. Ask every vendor the same set, in writing if possible, so you can compare responses side by side.
Contact the team or book a demo and mention that you are a nonprofit or NGO. Demo requests usually get a follow-up within one business day, and the team will explain what information is needed to review eligibility.
No. Payments still run on your own Stripe account and Stripe's processing fees are set by Stripe. Special conditions relate to Randel's own pricing, confirmed in your quote.
Randel is designed for communities that typically average 50 or more members. Smaller groups can still talk to the team, but the platform is built for organizations with an ongoing membership operation to manage.
Yes. Randel is white-label, so members see your logo, custom domain and colors rather than Randel's brand. This applies to nonprofit clients in the same way as any other organization.
