Network for Good Pricing Breakdown: What It Actually Costs in 2026

How Network for Good Pricing Works

Network for Good was acquired by Bonterra in 2022. Since the acquisition, the product has been integrated into Bonterra’s broader nonprofit software portfolio. Pricing is no longer published and requires a demo and custom quote from Bonterra’s sales team.

The platform’s core strength is donor engagement: fundraising pages, donation forms, peer-to-peer campaigns, and donor communications. These capabilities are intact post-acquisition.

What Changed After the Bonterra Acquisition

The acquisition consolidated Network for Good alongside EveryAction, CommunityForce, and Social Solutions under the Bonterra brand. For nonprofits evaluating the product, this has practical implications.

Support contacts, contract terms, and renewal processes now go through Bonterra, not the original Network for Good team. Product naming and feature packaging have shifted. Reviews and community discussions dated before 2022 may describe a different product structure than what is currently available. Before relying on third-party reviews, confirm current terms directly with Bonterra.

Transaction Fees and Total Cost

One variable that requires explicit confirmation during the sales process: transaction fees. Some Bonterra plans include per-transaction fees on processed donations in addition to the subscription cost. For a nonprofit processing $500,000 in online donations annually, a 2.5% transaction fee represents $12,500 in additional annual costs that do not appear in the base subscription price.

Asking for a total cost of ownership estimate (subscription plus expected transaction fees at your donation volume) gives a more accurate comparison against flat-rate alternatives.

GrantPipe: Published Rates, Grant Compliance Included

GrantPipe publishes pricing without a demo requirement:

• Starter ($199/month): Donor CRM, grant pipeline tracking, compliance calendar, 990 export templates, email support
• Growth ($399/month): Everything in Starter, plus automated deadline reminders, spend-down threshold alerts, the compliance report pack, and guided import support
• Audit-Ready ($799/month): Everything in Growth, plus Program Allocation management, budget-vs-actual exports, advanced fund accounting, financial statements and board-ready outputs, guided onboarding, and the Auditor & Funder Portal — invite auditors and funders with scoped, expiring access to specific grants, funds, and documents

Grant pipeline tracking, the compliance calendar, and basic restricted-fund visibility ship on every plan; the full restriction lifecycle and compliance report pack start on Growth; advanced fund accounting ships on Audit-Ready. There are no transaction fees on donations processed through the platform.

What the published price does not tell you

A pricing page is useful, but it rarely reflects the full first-year cost of adopting the system. Nonprofits should separate recurring subscription spend from setup labor, migration work, training time, and any secondary tools required to close feature gaps. That is especially important when the platform handles donor CRM well but leaves grant reporting, compliance tracking, or restricted-fund visibility to another product.

The practical budget question is not just whether the monthly fee fits today. It is whether the tool keeps your process simple enough to avoid added software or consulting spend later. If a platform requires an add-on, custom reporting layer, or outside administrator before it becomes usable for the whole organization, the headline price understates the real commitment.

How to budget the first year realistically

A safer budgeting approach is to model year-one cost in three buckets: subscription, implementation effort, and process overhead. Subscription is the visible number. Implementation effort includes migration, cleanup, onboarding, and any partner help. Process overhead is the hidden cost of exports, spreadsheet reconciliation, and report reformatting that continues after launch. Comparing vendors on those three buckets produces a much more accurate view of affordability than monthly price alone.
