Clear, ethical pricing

GrantingUp charges for professional work—not a percentage of an award. Pricing reflects scope, complexity, timeline, documentation, and stakeholder coordination.

Funding decisions remain with the funder, and GrantingUp cannot guarantee an award. Scope, deliverables, revision limits, timeline, and fixed fee are confirmed in writing before work begins.

Secure payment through Stripe. After you approve your scope and price, GrantingUp will send a secure Stripe invoice or checkout link.
