## About Chariot

Chariot is building the financial infrastructure for the $326 billion donor-advised fund (DAF) market, the fastest-growing segment of philanthropy. Our gift processing platform is an end-to-end solution for managing DAF payments, making it easier for grantmakers to send grant payments and nonprofits to receive, reconcile, and enrich their donation data.

Chariot also powers DAFpay, the industry’s first integrated DAF payment option and a TIME’s Best Invention of 2025. It is embedded on over 100,000 nonprofits’ donation forms—including American Cancer Society, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and University of Pennsylvania—and is a primary payment option on leading fundraising platforms like GoFundMe and GiveButter.

Hundreds of millions are already moving through Chariot’s platform, and we’re just getting started.
