questions, answered
Does chipin.me take a cut of donations?
No. Every square is paid through your cause's own official donation link. We never hold or touch the money.
Is it free to run a fundraiser?
Yes, for individuals, nonprofits, teams and schools. Launch a page in minutes, no fees, no subscription.
What can the squares go on?
A racing singlet, a long sleeve, a hoodie, a coffee mug, a poster or a flag banner. You can run several at once, each with its own price per square.
Can a company buy squares?
Yes, and they do. A business can claim a square, a row, or a whole side with its logo. It's sponsorship your supporters can actually see.
Are the donations tax-deductible?
That's up to the cause. If your page links to a registered nonprofit's official form, the donation is handled by them like any other gift to that organization.
What's a chipin character?
The 3D you that fronts your fundraiser. Send one photo and the studio crafts a rigged version of you, with a pose for every product: it wears the singlet, holds the mug, flies the flag, whatever you're raising on, with every supporter's square printed right on it. Organizations get a mascot the same way, and it fronts their community page and every team drive.
How do supporters pick a square?
Right on the character. Tap an open square on the gear it's wearing or holding, drag to grab a few more, add a photo or a message, and chip in. A flat board is one click away for anyone who prefers a map.
Can I design my own page?
Yes. Your page starts wired up to your donation link and your lineup. Then there's a wall: drop in photos and videos, write sticky notes, drag and tilt them like a canvas, and it shows under your bio.
