Setting up a cause and checking its requirements

Organize the goal, the organizer's information, and the documentation before starting a campaign.

A clear campaign makes it easy to understand what you want to achieve and why it makes sense to support it. Before filling out the form, organize your information in a dedicated folder so you can review it carefully.

Define the cause

  • Explain the specific issue and who benefits from the initiative.
  • Describe the actions you will carry out and what results you expect to achieve.
  • Break down the main expenses and calculate a goal consistent with that budget.
  • Decide on dates and review what happens if the goal is not reached.

Do not present work that still depends on funds raised as already completed. If there are other funds or collaborations, clarify what portion corresponds to this campaign.

Prepare your presentation

Choose a recognizable title, a short summary, and a description structured into sections. Gather a cover image and additional materials that help people understand the cause. Use images you have permission to use, and avoid displaying personal data from others without a proper legal basis.

If you plan to publish in multiple languages, prepare the texts for them as well; having a language selector does not mean content is translated automatically.

Identify the organizer and money management

Have the details of the responsible person or entity, their contact information, and any documentation requested during review ready. The destination bank account and ownership verifications are part of fund management; publishing a campaign does not automatically authorize a withdrawal.

Specific requirements depend on the initiative and applicable checks. If you have questions about who should be listed as the account holder or about a special situation, contact support before submitting contradictory information.

Check before submitting

Read the campaign as if you were seeing it for the first time. Check the budget, dates, format, image usage rights, and consistency between the organizer and the cause. Save the draft if anything is missing; submit it for review when it’s ready. Do not count on immediate approval or on any timeline that hasn’t been confirmed to you.
