Bernie's campaign uses Act Blue too. This just keeps a total of $ donated by DUers and friends.
All the donated $ to Bernie goes to Bernie except for the actual charge card fee by law: http://support.actblue.com/faq#q15
Fees all vendors pay to use your credit card from a vendors perspective: http://paysimple.com/credit_card_rates_explained.html
IF you give a tip it goes to Act Blue, the most successful Democratic $ raising PAC for their in house expenses like rent, payroll, IT, etc.

(94 posts)6. Do you know
How much in campaign funds he has raised in total? Not just from DU, and the other groups I see listed on ActBlue, but total. I know it was 1.5 million in the first 24 hours, and somewhere I heard it got up to 2.5 million on the next day (not sure if this is true or not). I wonder where we can find out how much he has raised so far?
