Case Study: Classy achieves minutes-long onboarding and streamlined reconciliation with Stripe

Classy Pay, powered by Stripe, creates best-in-class fundraising experiences for modern non-profits

Classy Pay, powered by Stripe, is a payment processing solution built for modern nonprofits that sought to simplify payments and reconciliation. Previously Classy’s customers had to work with three different processors, creating a fractured experience that doubled reconciliation work, increased errors, and forced customers to be redirected to third‑party support for payment issues.

By partnering with Stripe and branding the offering as Classy Pay powered by Stripe, Classy delivered a fast, unified payments platform with onboarding often taking only about 10 minutes and reconciliation 2–5x faster via a single comprehensive report. The solution leverages Stripe’s Billing, Connect, Payments, Radar and Sigma to enable automatic card updates, machine‑learning fraud protection, 30‑day migrations of recurring payments, stronger support, higher adoption across nonprofits, and improved revenue optimization.
