Top Marketing Tools That Offer Nonprofit Discounts
We have heard frequently from marketers in the nonprofit space looking for more relevant resources.
Budget constraints are one of the biggest challenges for marketers in nonprofit organizations. But there’s good news. Many marketing tools and services offer discounted pricing for nonprofits.
Here are a few tips for finding them:
- Look beyond the pricing page. We found that while most services offer nonprofit pricing, the offers aren’t always prominently featured. You might need to dig deeper into the FAQ or support pages.
- Use Google to search for “[Service Name] nonprofit pricing” to locate nonprofit policies that are hiding in a brand’s support documentation.
- Be prepared to provide proof of your nonprofit status. Most services will require proof of US 501(c)(3) status (in the U.S.) or comparable certification from other countries.
- Know the exclusions. Be aware that each service may exclude certain types of nonprofits (such as political, religious, or healthcare nonprofits). Some offers have geographic restrictions.
- Don’t be afraid to ask. If you don’t find clear documentation on a brand’s website, reach out to their customer support or sales team and ask about available discounts.
In a follow-up survey, we asked some of the sharpest nonprofit marketers in our Daily Carnage community to share their favorite tools and we’ve rounded up a list of discounts that you should know about.
We’ve also added 5 new AI tools designed specifically for nonprofit organizations of all sizes. Check it out!

Free The Beaches
While Mexico’s beaches are legally public, access is often restricted by hotels, fees, or informal barriers, limiting who can actually reach the shoreline. Bogus.
So, Tecate transformed three beachfront bars in Tulum into legal, open-access entry points, allowing anyone to reach the beach without paying or making a purchase.
We’re talking turning commercial spaces into public infrastructure, which is kind of radical for any brand.
Even non-customers or competing brand consumers can use the access points. Yes, civic work!
