How donation fees work on Donator
July 9, 2026

Donation fees on Donator are transparent and small. Donator takes a small platform fee on every donation, and on this page we explain honestly what that means, what it funds, and why it is competitive for a Georgian streamer.
What the platform fee is
Donator is not a free charity, it is a service, and like every reliable platform it takes a small fee on each donation. This is not hidden, on the contrary, we say openly that a fee exists.
The fee is small and is taken from the donation amount, while the rest lands in GEL in the streamer's Georgian bank. There are no hidden costs and no surprise deductions.
What the fee funds
The fee funds what builds the platform and keeps it running: secure payments, the live OBS alert, payouts to Georgian banks, and ongoing support.
It is an investment in stability and growth. A healthy fee means the platform keeps improving and expanding across the Caucasus, which benefits streamers.
Transparency: what you get in return
In return for the fee you get a system where the viewer pays with any card, Georgian or foreign, and the money arrives directly in GEL to a Georgian bank, TBC or Bank of Georgia.
You get a live alert, reliable payouts, and an official banking partnership. That is the value the small fee covers.
How it compares to other platforms
Donator's fee is competitive. On foreign platforms the money often passes through several deductions, a foreign wallet, conversion, and slow cash-out to GEL, which can cost more in total.
On Donator the money arrives in one transparent step in GEL, with no separate foreign wallet, so the final outcome for a Georgian streamer is often more favorable.
