Requirements to receive funds

The person who is receiving funds must be over 18 years of age and meet all the fundraising requirements. In case, you do not meet the requirements, you can ask someone to create a fundraiser campaign on your behalf and add them as a beneficiary.
Please note that it is important to verify your identity and bank information completely.
How to invite a beneficiary to receive funds?
Gohelpme is a platform where you can raise funds for someone else and set them as the beneficiary of the fundraiser campaign. This permits the beneficiary to transfer the funds directly to their bank accounts. Before sending them the invitation, ensure that your beneficiary meets all the requirements to receive funds.
How to Send a Beneficiary Invitation?
Go to the fundraiser dashboard in your Gohelpme account. In the bank details section, you'll find an option that says "Onboard beneficiary to get donations." Click it. Then, click the "Add beneficiary" button. A form will open where you need to enter the:
- beneficiary's legal first name
- legal last name
- ID card number
- relationship to the beneficiary
- email address
- phone number
After filling out the form, click "Invite." This will send an invitation email to the beneficiary. Once the beneficiary accepts the invitation, you will see two names in your campaign: the organizer and the beneficiary. Afterwards, go to the bank section under bank details and fill in your bank information so you can start receiving payouts.
It is crucial to add a beneficiary at the time of transfer setup. If you have completed the setting up transfers by using your information, you won’t be able to add a beneficiary then. If you encounter any trouble when sending the invitation or the beneficiary is facing issues in accepting it, then try to add a different email address. If you are still facing the issues, you can contact our support team to find out how to handle the situation.
Once your beneficiary accepts the invite, no additional action is required from the Gohelpme organizer to set up transfers.
How a beneficiary account works:
When your beneficiary accepts the invitation, a separate Gohelpme account will be created for them that will also be connected to your fundraiser campaign. They will be able to sign into a separate account and set up the transfers so that they can get the funds into their bank account.
