Daffy has partnered with Chariot to offer charities an electronic donation disbursement option.
How it works
💻 Claim your charity’s profile on Chariot: Set up information is detailed below.
🔍 Verify your details. A designated Control Person (someone with financial authority) verifies the organization and connects an external bank account.
💌 Donations arrive. Once verified, Daffy donation funds and details are sent to your Chariot account.
💰 Transfer or manage. Move funds to your charity’s bank account and manage donation data within Chariot.
Tracking Donations in the Chariot Dashboard
Once your organization is set up, incoming Daffy donations will appear in your Chariot dashboard. Each payment includes the same information as Daffy's donation letter: donation amount, purpose, and donor information. From the dashboard, you can review payment details and transfer funds to your linked bank account at any time.
How to Get Set Up
To receive Daffy donations electronically, your organization needs to claim a Chariot profile.
Claim your organization's Chariot profile here.
Have a Control Person (someone with financial authority, such as an Executive Director, CFO, or Finance Manager) complete identity verification.
Link an external bank account so funds can be transferred out of your Chariot account.
Once your profile is claimed, email support@daffy.org, so we can add you to our electronic disbursements list.
Future donations from Daffy will then appear in your Chariot dashboard, with full donation details available for review.
For more information on the setup process, see Chariot's Onboarding Guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a fee to receive electronic disbursements?
There is no fee to receive electronic disbursements into your Chariot Deposit Account. Chariot covers the first two transfers per month out of your Chariot Deposit Account to a linked external financial account. If you use optional Chariot features beyond basic transfers, you can learn more about Chariot’s pricing here.
Is Chariot secure?
Yes. Chariot’s system for receiving grants is significantly more secure than traditional methods such as checks or even ACH. Its “in-network” transfers are instantaneous and do not expose account or routing numbers. Your organization’s banking information is never shared directly with Daffy.
Tens of thousands of donors, non-profits, and DAFs rely on Chariot’s technology to facilitate seamless giving and payment experiences while keeping their most sensitive information protected. Learn more about the verification process here.
What happens if we don't claim a Chariot profile?
Organizations that have not claimed a Chariot profile will continue to receive Daffy donations via US Mail.
Who should complete the Chariot verification?
The Control Person should be someone with significant financial oversight and authorization to verify the organization's identity and approve financial transactions. For example, the charity’s Executive Director, CFO, or Finance Manager can serve as the Control Person.
