Why Companies are Switching from CyberGrants to Groundswell
One platform. Always improving.
Groundswell brings giving, volunteering, and grants together in a platform built to move fast. CyberGrants often custom-builds programs for each customer. The tradeoff? Over time, those environments can become harder to update and slower to evolve. Our platform is configurable — not fragile — so innovation reaches every customer.
Fast, frictionless donations.
Groundswell’s modern donor-advised fund (DAF) structure gets donations and company matches to nonprofits within 24 hours, cutting through the delays and manual work that slow other platforms. In contrast, CyberGrants can take up to 50 days for a donation and up to 90 days for the match to reach its destination. With Groundswell, giving happens fast, efficiently, and reliably, so your impact is felt immediately, not weeks later.
Transparent pricing. No surprise fees.
With Groundswell, what you see is what you get. Our processing fees are the lowest in the industry and we don’t charge for every little request. CyberGrants, on the other hand, often requires expensive custom add-ons and slows programs with heavy administrative overhead — turning simple tasks into complex, costly projects. Groundswell keeps things transparent, predictable, and fast. No hidden costs. No surprises.
Easy tools. Expert help.
Groundswell gives you the power to run your program without waiting on support—but when questions come up, you won’t get stuck in ticket limbo. Our team of real humans is here to help, with fast, personalized support from people who know your program.

"So simple to use and will make a huge difference."
I have worked for very large organizations of 50k down to 4k employees. They have always been hard to work with. I love that Groundswell is so super easy.
Jania Stout
Senior Vice President, OneDigital
"Great platform used by over 70% of our associates!"
This tool has allowed us to rapidly expand our employee matching and employee gifting programs and has been well received by the associates. Groundswell continues to add new features that make the platform even more valuable to us. The partnership with CAF America to include international NGOs allowed us to expand to our India-based associates which has been very well received.
Durward Ferland
Partner, Wipfli
"Easy, impactful and fulfilling!"
Not only does Groundswell let you put corporate giving into the hands of employees, the user experience is seamless and the customer support is A+. The Groundswell team is always proactive about finding new ways for our company to leverage the app and the holidays awareness month toolkits are especially helpful.
