### 5/5 — Thank you

*2023-09-01, version 1.24.22*

I appreciate that Daffy makes my good thoughts into good deeds, sans procrastination.

### 5/5 — Recommend - but not perfect yet

*2022-05-11, version 1.14.1*

Pros:
-Easy to use
-Customer service 
-Reasonable membership fee

Cons:
-Unable to change the aggressiveness of your investment once you’ve selected at setup.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2022-05-03*

So far this is a very cool concept for me. I was under the impression that I had a few other options that I would still like to see built in but now that I understand it, I am all set for now. I think Daffy could be more clear on what this does and how to use it. The feature I thought I was getting and would like to see is: add money (not considered donated yet), allow it to grow, then donate the bigger amount for a better tax offset. Currently the process is similar but the amount is considered donated as soon as it’s added. So it can grow but will not assist my taxed contribution at all. I know I can transfer stock in for donating but I use a robo-advisor so I would rather have the option inside Daffy.

### 5/5 — Create a Donor Advised Fund in minutes!

*2022-03-20, version 1.10.0*

Amazing app to create a DAF in minutes, easy to create, easy to contribute and easy to donate.

### 5/5 — So easy to donate from my phone

*2022-03-07*

I love being able to donate with one click and not have to waste time and mental energy remembering to set up donations later.

### 5/5 — Simply wonderful!

*2022-01-30*

I just made my first contribution using Bitcoin followed by my first grant. There was a time lag between my contribution and funds being made available, but assume that’s part of verification process. Waiting to see how long it takes for charity to actually receive funds now. So far very impressed with this giving platform.

### 5/5 — DAF made easy!

*2022-01-23, version 1.6*

I was looking to set up my first DAF and stumbled upon Daffy. It was a no-brainer!

### 5/5 — Great way to seamlessly give

*2022-01-18*

Daffy allows me to set up automatic donations from my bank account each week (getting me instant tax write offs). The money accrues in my donor advised fund automatically, so that whenever I learn about a new charity, I can just go into the Daffy app and tap Donate to support them.

### 5/5 — Simplifying tzedaka

*2021-12-12, version 1.2.3*

Brilliant idea!

### 5/5 — A great giving app

*2021-11-25*

So easy to set up and automate my giving, and I love the recommendations of charities near you!

### 5/5 — Donations were so easy!

*2021-11-09*

I donated ETH and it was a breeze! It was satisfying to see the $ amount in my account almost immediately and to be able to send a donation to my local school. I love that I can see my tax deductible donations easily too.

### 5/5 — Love how easy it is to give!

*2021-11-02*

This app makes it so simple to give more regularly and I love how easy it is to get things set up. I’ve been looking for something like Daffy and I’m so happy it’s finally here!

### 5/5 — Great Idea

*2021-10-26, version 1.1*

It’s a new app so it’s not in the UK but I’m not sure that warrants a 2 Star rating…

### 5/5 — Best way to make giving a habit

*2021-10-02*

Love using Daffy to manage my giving. I never used to be this intentional with donating, but this app has helped me set money aside every month for charity. I really enjoy the process of making donations now, since Daffy keeps me posted on the status of my donations and even helped me figure out how much to contribute to my fund. Great tool and community as well!

### 5/5 — Super useful tool!

*2021-09-30*

I try to donate to charity every year but usually don’t know where to give and often forget. Daffy makes it really easy to set money aside automatically, so I don’t have to think about it. 

They have a nice variety of portfolios that I can pick from for my contributions to be invested. 

I also really like that you do everything straight from your phone!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bad security UX

*2026-08-15*

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.

### 1/5 — No customer service

*2026-07-25*

Daffy has had my money for 3 weeks, (since July 6th) and my account still shows a zero balance. I have emailed repeatedly and no one has responded. There is no customer service number to call. I realize there’s a great chance that I did something wrong during setup but it sure would be nice if they could let me know what is going on.
Fidelity Charitable shows Daffy received the EFT on 7-6-26, so I currently have a zero balance at both places and no one responding at Daffy. Daffy sounds like a good company if everything goes well, if it doesn’t though, I think you’re out of luck.
Thank you.
Robert

**Developer response:** Hi Robert, we’re sorry for the confusion and concern this caused. Our Member Support team connected with you and confirmed that your transfer settled successfully—the funds were never lost. The balance wasn’t visible in the account you were checking because it was associated with a different email address used during setup.

We’re glad we could help clarify what happened. If you need anything else, our team is always available at support@daffy.org.

Thank you for being a Daffy member!

### 2/5 — High potential but sadly is US-Only!

*2021-10-01, version 1.0*

I like the potential and innovative approach that this app has to charitable donations; however, it is currently hamstrung as it is US-only focused and the UK has a massive charity giving culture and this app could be a game changer this side of the pond. And it is odd that the app is available on the UK App Store, given it is US focused. Please allow this to be used in the UK for UK charities and see your potential be realised.

### 4/5 — Long time user

*2025-05-21*

Been using Daffy for a while. Overall, very happy with the experience and the price. The only wish I have is if they offered a view into overall performance of the personal portfolio to see total return.

### 4/5 — Excellent App!

*2023-03-01*

I just setup my account and couldn’t be more happier with how intuitive and simple the UI is to navigate. Fund choices are straightforward and top choices based off your preferences are provided, so that you can donate to the causes that your truly care about. Great work Daffy devs!!

### 5/5 — Easy to set up/use donor advised fund (DAF) to make periodic donations to your charities; low fees.

*2026-08-11*

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!

### 5/5 — Excellent Donor Advised Fund

*2026-03-19*

Daffy is super easy to fund and to use.  I’ve made both recurring donations and one time gifts to multiple organizations.  From churches to community groups to volunteer organizations Daffy has made giving easy.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for being a generous member of Daffy!

### 5/5 — So easy to contribute

*2025-12-31*

Contributing from my company’s brokerage, ETrade, are so much easier to my daffy account are a lot easier than to fidelity charitable account. This is a great app for a private donor.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-09-15, version 1.40*

Daffy is amazing-a blessing!!!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-08-28, version 1.31.3*

This is an incredible app with excellent functionality for a DAF

## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Fantastic Solution

*2024-11-13*

Daffy makes giving easy. By far the easiest DAF solution around!

### 5/5 — Excellent, Cost Effective Solution

*2024-07-22*

Our foundation has been using Daffy for about two years and the service has been excellent. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in establishing a charitable solution.

### 5/5 — Daffy made donating non-cash assets really easy!

*2024-07-04*

Great concept, very easy to use iOS app. It makes it very convenient for the donor and donee.

### 5/5 — Fantastic! Makes generosity easy

*2024-06-18*

I love Daffy!!! I first heard about them on a podcast I listen to regularly. When I did some research comparing them to doing a donor advised fund through my bank the choice was so clear. I love their transparent and fixed pricing structure, which allows me to give much more of my money to the causes I care about. Daffy is incredibly efficient, and I have felt like I’ve gotten white glove service since I signed up. From learning how to transfer stocks, to on boarding a new charity, they made the process seamless. If I could give 10 stars, I would!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-03-06*

All my charitable giving, banking info, favorite charities, current balance, and investment allocation are available on my phone in a simple and intuitive app, what more could you want? Five stars in my book!
