Designed for registered Australian charities and not-for-profit organisations with DGR status, with zero platform fees, automated DGR receipting, and tax-deductible donations. Standard transaction processing fees still apply.
• Waitlist Pre-campaign landing page tool that allows creators to capture potential supporters' details before launching a crowdfunding campaign, building an engaged audience for direct communication when the campaign goes live. Features an instant approval process and customisable pages with pitch video and images.
