Low level monthly rate
Affordable rates for small nonprofits. $25/month for community

This is not resolved as the $25 rate is only for 100 contacts.

We are a non profit volunteer run dog park. We do charge a minimal fee per year of $30. We have less than 250 members but they are coming and going with age of dog and interest. We track vaccines for safety. $50 a month is way more than we can afford but would like a software such as yours.

ABSOLUTELY. We are 23 members in our association. Online billing is the first reason to sign up but $480 for a small association is impossible to justify. Your free account makes no sense, we could use Facebook for that. A small database group for $20 or less could be justified to members and appeal to a much bigger potential market for you.

We are an all-volunteer non-profit with no membership fees and over 1,500 contacts. We are almost entirely dependent on donations to cover our overhead and activities. Wild Apricot, at $130 per month, is our single largest overhead expense. While we very much appreciate the ease and support services, as well as the opportunities for outreach, which WA provides, it would be nice if you offered a discount for small organizations like ours.

Please add a level between Group and Community. We need more than 5 admins but not 10. We need more than 250 contacts but not 500. We can afford $40 per month but $70 is too much. Thank you!

I run a non-profit community association in Canada. We have 320 contacts, no membership fees and almost no income; Wild Apricot represents over 95% of our expenses. Our cost for the Wild Apricot service is $1,116 per year. Love the system, and have used it for many years, but with the (1) price increase, (2) our growth over the 250 contacts level, and (3) the drop in Canadian dollar vs U.S. pricing -- we have experienced HUGE increase in cost, which may be unsustainable.

Yes!!! also offer discounts for size of organization!

Perhaps qualified nonprofits could get a discount of some sort instead. This way any size nonprofit would benefit. Luckily, our nonprofit was grandfathered in at the lower rate. Now, I'm not sure we'll be able to afford WA once our grandfather rate expires.

I think this is moving in the right direction. Check out SUMAC's pricing. They key it to functionality versus size of community. We are an urban civic association in a neighborhood where at least half of our faithful membership is elderly and not online but where most of our community is under 25, very much online, not engaged. I want to continually reach out to the young people, because our mission is to serve the community. However, I don't expect many to pay membership dues. They will come to fundraisers etc., however.

I agree that $25/month for small non profits would be great!

The thing is that CMS as a stand-alone tool is not our focus. We focus on membership and the rest is around this.

I have been asking for a good rate for website-only hosting for our nonprofit. WA's web editing tools beat anything else I've seen. Something like this would be close to affordable.
