Extension summary

What is GiveBuy? A percentage of every purchase you make online will be donated to a major charity at no extra cost to you.

How it works If it doesn’t cost the consumer anything, then who is donating? GiveBuy is. We’ve built relationships with large online retailers who automatically send us up to 10% of each purchase, which we forward onto pre-selected charities. You shop, retailers sell, charities receive. Everybody wins.

History / Creation GiveBuy was founded in Austin, Texas by two brothers. Their mission was to create an organization that would give to registered charities through online shopping. Over time the original idea was transformed into a simple browser extension that automatically donates a percentage of each purchase to a major charitable organization
