Before you connect
Questions about Givebutter.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I use Givebutter MCP to see my total donations?
Yes. The Connector connects to your Givebutter account to pull donation history, allowing your agent to show you totals, recent successes, and full transaction logs.
How does Givebutter MCP help with donor lists?
It lets you sync new donor contacts directly into your database. You can ask your agent to add a new person or pull a list of existing profiles to review.
Can I log cash gifts with Givebutter MCP?
Yes. You can use the Connector to record offline donations, like cash or checks, so they show up in your unified fundraising records.
Does Givebutter MCP work with my other apps?
Yes. Since it's an Connector, it works with any compatible AI client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf, letting you access Givebutter data where you already work.
Can I see recurring plans?
Yes. You can ask your agent to list all active recurring donation plans to help you understand your long-term donor commitments.
How do I get my data into my AI?
Simply subscribe to the Givebutter MCP on Vinkius, enter your API key, and your agent will have the ability to query your fundraising data instantly.
How do I get an API Key for Givebutter?
Log in to your Givebutter dashboard, navigate to Settings > Developers > API, and you can generate a new secret API key there.
Can I process live credit card transactions via the agent?
No, this integration is for management and data retrieval. For security, live donor checkouts must still happen through Givebutter's secure forms.
What format should the donation amount be in?
The Givebutter API uses major units for amounts. For example, to record a $10.50 donation, you should provide the decimal value '10.50'.
How do I link a transaction to a specific campaign?
