Bstow

Bstow is a fintech-for-good startup whose flagship product, Cheerful Giving, lets nonprofits and their supporters raise money through spare-change round-up donations, recurring gifts, and branded campaign pages. Backed by 500 Global, Bstow's Cheerful Giving product now operates as part of the Goodworld social-impact platform (goodworldnow.com), which layers on giving forms, events, peer-to-peer and workplace/payroll giving, text engagement, and an impact CRM. The platform documents webhooks and partner integrations (Salesforce, Stripe, PayPal, Klaviyo, Zapier, Fundraise Up) but does not publish a public, self-serve API reference or OpenAPI specification; API access is arranged directly with the vendor through a sales-gated developer portal. This profile was surfaced from the 500 Global portfolio and enriched by the pipeline.

Bstow is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Nonprofit, Fundraising, Donations, and Charitable Giving.

Bstow’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 8 more developer resources.
