ClearFund publishes a live, receipt-backed transparency page on your own WordPress site — every category you raise for, everything you spend, and a photograph of each receipt.
Free and unlimited. No category cap, no expiring trial.
Someone gives your organization $50, receives a thank-you email, and then hears nothing ever again. They never find out whether it bought school books or disappeared into overheads.
That silence is the single biggest reason first-time donors don't give twice.
ClearFund closes that gap. No spreadsheets emailed on request, no annual PDF nobody opens — your supporters can check for themselves, whenever they like.
ClearFund doesn't take payments. It works alongside the donation plugin you already use and pulls the money in automatically.
GiveWP and MissionWP donations sync automatically, attributed to the category the donor chose. Cash, bank transfers and grants get recorded by hand, so the public picture includes money that never touched your website.
From their phone, with a receipt photo attached and an optional "in use" action shot. Expenses stay private until an administrator approves them.
Approved expenses appear on your transparency dashboard with their receipts. Every donation and expense is hash-chained into a tamper-evident ledger as it happens.
Every screen below is a real install, not a mockup.
Everything you need to run a transparent ledger is in the free plugin — there is no cap on categories, expenses, donations or traffic.
Free — listing in review at WordPress.org
The free plugin is awaiting review on WordPress.org. Everything above is in it — the demo runs the same build with Pro switched on.

Pro is a separate download, not an unlock. The plugin you install from WordPress.org contains only the free features; the Pro code is not present in it in any form, and nothing in it can be switched on by a license key, constant or setting. Buying Pro downloads a different, larger build that replaces it. Cancelling reverses that — you go back to the free build, and your data stays where it is.
No. ClearFund records and reports where donations are allocated and spent. Collection is handled by GiveWP, MissionWP, or whatever payment setup you already have.
WordPress 6.0 or newer and PHP 8.0 or newer. GiveWP 4.0+ is recommended for recording donations — automatic category attribution uses GiveWP Campaigns. On older GiveWP, donations are recorded under the General Fund.
Administrators and users with the dedicated field-staff role (labelled "Caretaker" by default, and renameable). Regular subscribers cannot submit expenses or upload files.
Yes, with Pro. Set a base reporting currency and an optional secondary currency; expenses entered in the secondary currency are converted automatically using a free ExchangeRate-API key.
Add the [clearfund_dashboard] shortcode to any page, or use the block. It shows each category's donated, spent and remaining balance, plus receipts and photos for every approved expense. Pro adds a personal page where a signed-in donor traces their own gift to the exact purchases it funded.
ClearFund works without any external service. The optional ones — Brevo for newsletters, ExchangeRate-API for conversion, Freemius for license validation and updates — only make contact when you turn them on. Diagnostic data is sent only if you opt in when activating.
The demo is a real ClearFund install with four months of invented data for a fictional charity. Click around it.
