# Difference Between GiveWise and GiveGenius

**GiveWise** and **GiveGenius** are part of the same mission: making charitable giving easier, more impactful, and more accessible—for both donors and charities. But they serve slightly different purposes:

#### GiveWise – *For Donors*

**GiveWise** is the **public-facing giving platform** where donors can give to your charity, open a DAF (Giving Fund), and access more ways to give.

**Donors use GiveWise to:**

* Give online securely
* Donate complex assets (securities, crypto, etc.)
* Set up recurring gifts or a Giving Fund (DAF)
* Receive one consolidated tax receipt

> 💡 Think of GiveWise as the **donor-facing giving platform** where the donation experience happens.

#### GiveGenius – *For Charities*

**GiveGenius** is your **charity-side toolkit** for managing GiveWise integrations, enhancing the donor experience, and accessing detailed reports.

**Charities use GiveGenius to:**

* Create and update their Give Page
* Monitor gifts and donor data
* Enable donations of complex assets
* Simplify backend donation processing
* Increase DAF and planned giving

> 💡 Think of GiveGenius as the **charity-side dashboard and integration toolkit** that powers a better donor experience via GiveWise.

### How GiveWise and GiveGenius Fit Together

**GiveWise** is the **umbrella brand**—a digital giving platform built to make charitable giving easier, more flexible, and more impactful for both donors and charities.

Under that umbrella, **GiveGenius** is a **specialized tool built specifically for charities**. It empowers organizations like yours to integrate GiveWise into your existing systems, expand your donation options, and manage more complex gifts behind the scenes.

#### Think of it this way:

* **GiveWise** is the **public-facing giving experience** for donors.
* **GiveGenius** is the **charity-facing product** that helps you manage, customize, and benefit from that experience.

Together, they work seamlessly to connect donor generosity with charitable impact.
