(LifeSiteNews) — LifeSiteNews has built a market-ready peer-to-peer crowdfunding platform and is offering it for acquisition because it now falls outside our strategic focus. The sale of LifeFunder.com represents a rare opportunity for a mission-aligned organization to acquire a fully engineered, charitable fundraising platform with seven years of operating history, public reputation, and built-in trust.
The LifeFunder.com platform is built for charitable, community, and mission-driven fundraising and enjoys an existing public brand and reputation.
The buyer can continue operating under the established brand or white label the system under its own name. Either way, the platform can be put to work immediately, without the cost, delay, or risk of building a crowdfunding system from scratch.
For the right buyer, this is an opportunity to unlock a new revenue stream while helping individuals, families, churches, organizations, and communities raise funds for causes that matter.
Proven history, promising future
Over the past five years, the platform has processed more than $6 million for campaign organizers and approximately $350,000 in platform tip revenue. Revenue is generated through a voluntary tip model when donating. Campaign organizers are not charged a fee. Over the past three years, tips have averaged approximately 7% of donations raised, showing the platform still has a proven ability to generate income.
In recent years, the platform has not been a primary strategic focus for LifeSiteNews. As a result, activity has declined from earlier levels. For the right buyer, this represents a great opportunity. The hard work has already been done: The platform is built, operational, trusted, and monetized. A buyer with the right audience, donor network, marketing focus, or charitable mission can take over an existing asset rather than starting from zero.
LifeFunder.com is especially suited for a buyer that already has, or wants to build, a trusted fundraising relationship with a mission-driven audience. Potential buyers include nonprofit organizations, religious or faith-based organizations, conservative or pro-life advocacy groups, charitable media organizations, donor networks, and organizations looking for a white-label fundraising system.
Details
The platform is built on a proven, widely supported WordPress LEMP stack, with payments handled through Stripe Connect. This gives a buyer a practical, modern, and low-cost system to take over without needing a large engineering team specialized proprietary infrastructure or unusually expensive technical talent.
Because WordPress is so widely used, qualified developers and administrators are easier to find and often lower cost than developers for more specialized custom platforms. Current hosting requirements are modest, with operating costs in the range of a small business-grade server. Even significant traffic growth is expected to remain inexpensive to support.
