A payments alternative to Venmo and PayPal that’s made for groups
Cheddar Up vs PayPal you ask? We’ll explain the difference. For starters, Cheddar Up is made for groups with online forms, instant tracking, one-click reporting and more.
While we’re big fans of Venmo for paying back a friend and we admire PayPal’s sheer reach, collecting both payments and information from tens or hundreds or even thousands of people requires well…more. Here is a little background and a quick look at how Cheddar Up stacks up.

Collect money AND information (no more separate forms)
Online payment pages for anything (events, dues, donations...)
Easily pass the reigns or share duties with an online history

Cheddar Up vs PayPal: Fees and Payment Methods
Unlike other group payment platforms, is it always free to collect on Cheddar Up. Non-profits, sellers and volunteer-led organizations love Cheddar Up because they keep 100% of the payments they receive. Another key benefit of Cheddar Up is its sheer flexibility when it comes to absorbing fees: choose to absorb all fees or only e-check fees. You can even offer your payers the option to pay fees during checkout—perfect for fundraising drives and donations.
