User reviews

Daffy is the best and lowest-cost Donor-Advised Fund!

Daffy is an exceptional example of how tech expertise can be leveraged for the public good. It is a highly efficient organization with a wonderfully streamlined app. This is exactly the kind of platform that deserves to be highlighted by Apple.

Easy way to grow and give

I love growing my charitable funds so I have even more to give in the years ahead!

Fantastic App and Service!

This is simply the best and least expensive DAF service you will find. The web platform and mobile app are extremely user-friendly, efficient, and fun to use.

Bad security UX

I love the service but the app is horrible—if you want to use 2FA, you have to use a hardware security key (no support for TOTP). Worse, unlike other financial apps, the platform does not allow the app to become [even temporarily] authorized as a second factor.

This means that every time you use the app, you have to [find &] use your hardware security key—in which case (unless you carry your key with you everywhere) you might as well just use your desktop browser.

At the very least, Daffy should support TOTP. But really the app should be come a second factor once an existing second factor is presented.

Do better, Daffy.

Response from developer

Thank you for the detailed feedback, and for the kind words about Daffy. We want to share one option that may help. In the iOS app, you can use a passkey as your second factor, so you can verify with Face ID or your device PIN and don't need a physical security key on hand. You can find those setup instructions on our Help Center here: https://help.daffy.org/en/articles/14646033-how-do-i-set-up-multi-factor-authentication-for-my-account We don't currently support TOTP, and we appreciate you explaining why they matter to you. We’ve shared your feedback with our product team. If you have any questions about setting up a passkey, feel free to reach out to us at support@daffy.org. Thanks for being a Daffy member!

Easy to set up/use donor advised fund (DAF) to make periodic donations to your charities; low fees.

At the beginning of 2026, we used Daffy to effectively prepay a year’s worth of donations to our church. That prepayment is immediately a charitable contribution for tax purposes. It doesn’t matter if you simply keep the funds with Daffy or set up monthly draws, which is what we do. No credit cards or checks needed by us to send to our church.

The app shows when checks are sent and if the church deposited those checks.

The fee of $3/m offsets what we’d otherwise pay in postage! Since our funds are put into the most aggressive funds, those gains far more offset this $3, and not having to deal with it monthly is a major time saver.

We love Daffy!
