Why should my nonprofit use Crowded for the 990 Form filing?
Crowded is the only certified IRS e-filer that pre-fills fields on the 990 Form for nonprofits, making the process smooth and easy.
What if my nonprofit has not filed a Form 990 in previous years?
If your nonprofit has not filed a Form 990 for more than 3 consecutive years, your tax-exempt status may have been revoked. Crowded can reapply for nonprofit status on your behalf.
If your nonprofit has not filed a Form 990 in the past two years (2021-2023), Crowded can file those Form 990s.
Do I need an EIN to access Crowded's banking*?
If you would like to open a Crowded banking* account, you will need an EIN. If your nonprofit currently does not have one or needs help locating or updating your EIN, you can apply for one in our platform.
Is Crowded free?
Crowded accounts are free to set up – we have no minimum balances or subscription fees.
What do we charge for?
When collecting payments, we charge a small percentage of the collection amount, and our compliance services incur a small fee. See our full fee schedule here.
You can always choose whether you want to cover these fees or ask your payers to handle them.
