Review summary

Users generally view the app as good, but repeatedly cite three major issues: cart/checkout problems (items vanishing, inaccessible cart, unreliable payments), poor navigation and user experience, and difficulty locating causes and events (My Causes not showing events; need to search Explore Causes). These recurring themes represent the most mentioned points across reviews.

Pros

Generally a good app

Cons

Shopping cart/checkout problems: items can't be accessed in the cart, items disappear, and there are multiple checkout buttons leading to unreliable payments
Difficult navigation and overall poor user experience: hard to find items, confusing categories, and not user-friendly
Poor discoverability of causes/events: My Causes often doesn’t show events and users must manually search Explore Causes; events/fundraisers are hard to locate

2025-09-24	Mu*****	this is so bad. it sends you notices of fees, that you didn't want to pay. it will not allow you to opt out of them. instead sending notifications to contribute to stuff that has nothing to do with my child and their education. it also has the audacity to tell me who donated or contributed to what. it's invasive and useless

2025-08-19	Mi*****	The fact that I can add items to my cart but then cannot access the cart to pay is infuriating.

2025-08-06	Al*****	Terrible. Website doesn't allow me to add my kids' schools, so I'm forced to the app. App shows all the fees separately with different checkouts. I process the first one for $20, success, then the other item in the cart just disappears. I have no idea if I paid it or not, so I guess I'm waiting until my credit card shows a charge. edit: it didn't process. I had to go back and add it to my cart again. What an awful system.

2025-02-19	Ni*****	I found this difficult to navigate between options. However, this was my first time purchasing with it. Still not sure i got the selection I wanted since the app made it difficult to choose which of the 6 items within the category had actually been selected.
