Gofundme pass on the total amount of your donation - tips pay for the payment platform

From their website

Rather than charging a platform fee on personal fundraisers, GoFundMe gives donors the option to add a voluntary tip. Donors’ voluntary tips are in addition to their donations. Your donation receipt will show you a breakdown of your fundraiser donation and GoFundMe tip amount. On your statement, this will either show up as a single combined charge or as two separate charges.

We use these tips to help us operate the company and provide an effective, safe and secure experience for all our users around the world.

If you would like us to refund the tip, please contact us
