Givebutter for AI agents

Givebutter is a fundraising platform for nonprofits to run campaigns, sell tickets, and track donors. Nonprofit staff use it to manage donations and supporter relationships. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Givebutter connects.

Users add their Givebutter api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Givebutter connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Givebutter and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Givebutter with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Givebutter to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Givebutter actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Givebutter?

Users add their Givebutter api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Givebutter actions can my agent take?

58 in total: 27 read, 23 write and 8 destructive, such as “create Fund”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Givebutter?

Yes. Actions like “delete Fund” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Givebutter too?

Yes. The same Givebutter connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
