Medical crowdfunding services are organized platforms that enable individuals or groups to raise financial support for healthcare-related expenses by collecting contributions from a wide audience. These services offer a structured approach to launching and managing fundraising campaigns, ensuring secure transaction processing and transparent allocation of funds.
The primary categories of medical crowdfunding services include donation-based crowdfunding, reward-based crowdfunding, equity crowdfunding, and debt crowdfunding. Reward-based crowdfunding involves contributors receiving a token of appreciation such as a product, gift, or experience in exchange for their support. Various platforms support these services, including specialized medical crowdfunding websites, general crowdfunding sites, social media channels, mobile apps, and platforms integrated with hospitals or charitable organizations. These services are used for a range of purposes, such as emergency medical care, long-term treatment expenses, organ transplant procedures, and funding for medical research. They serve different types of users, including individuals, nonprofit organizations, hospitals, research institutions, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the financial sector, particularly in investment strategies and risk management. Heightened tariffs have fueled market volatility, prompting cautious behavior among institutional investors and increasing demand for hedging instruments. Banks and asset managers are facing higher costs associated with cross-border transactions, as tariffs disrupt global supply chains and dampen corporate earnings, key drivers of equity market performance. Insurance companies, meanwhile, are grappling with increased claims risks tied to supply chain disruptions and trade-related business losses. Additionally, reduced consumer spending and weakened export demand are constraining credit growth and investment appetite. The sector must now prioritize diversification, digital transformation, and robust scenario planning to navigate the heightened economic uncertainty and protect profitability.

The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising number of crowdfunding campaigns, growing awareness of crowdfunding as a financing option, the emergence of social media, the expansion of digital payment systems, and the escalating costs of healthcare.
The medical crowdfunding services market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.94 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to a rising focus on health and safety, increased awareness of the importance of medical care, supportive government initiatives, improved access to digital platforms, and greater recognition of crowdfunding as a viable funding option.

The increasing use of social media is expected to significantly boost the growth of the medical crowdfunding services market. Social media platforms allow users to create, share, and interact with content while building virtual communities. The growing accessibility of smartphones and the internet has contributed to a rise in social media usage, making it easier for people to stay connected and engaged at all times. This trend supports medical crowdfunding by enabling campaigns to reach broader audiences quickly, increasing the likelihood of receiving donations. For example, a report published in January 2022 by We Are Social, a UK-based creative agency, noted a 5.6% increase in global social media users in 2023, with 266 million new accounts created. As a result, the rise of social media is playing a key role in the expansion of the medical crowdfunding services market.
Companies in the medical crowdfunding sector are increasingly adopting advanced technologies such as AI-powered solutions to enhance the effectiveness and personalization of their platforms.

This new capability enables fundraisers to quickly create and share personalized narratives, helping individuals raise funds for a variety of medical needs, such as emergency treatments, long-term care, and rare disease research. The platform also supports fundraising for specialized therapies and family assistance during health-related crises.
