Conference Registration:
We are using Zeffy for PCESC registrations, see below for more information on Zeffy. Zeffy does not charge the organizers for transaction fees. However under this model, during check-out, Zeffy does ask registrants for optional contributions to keep Zeffy free for non-profits. We understand that many organizations or government agencies are not able to make a donation to Zeffy. The contribution to Zeffy can be customized to 0.

Zeffy makes money through optional, voluntary contributions from donors, rather than charging nonprofits any platform or transaction fees. When a donor is completing a transaction on a Zeffy form, they are given the option to add a contribution to Zeffy. These voluntary contributions are used to cover Zeffy's operating costs and reinvest in the platform.
