Your name will appear on the fundraiser page:

This page will show your name as the recipient of funds and we are unable to change the wording. We encourage transparency on Gohelpme, but if you want to keep it anonymous for privacy reasons, and wish not to share your full name publicly, so in this scenario, you can always provide a suitable name. Additionally, ensure that you use your full and legal name when setting up bank transfers. (This information will not appear publicly.)

You’ll be responsible for setting up bank transfers to your bank account:

When you accept the beneficiary invitation through your email and create the Gohelpme account, you will be able to add your bank account details.

As the beneficiary, you will need to meet the following requirements:

• Have a bank account in the supported country
• Must be 18 years of age
• Have a valid ID card
• Should be able to set up the transfers through your own Gohelpme account

You can send thank you notes and post updates on the fundraiser:

The beneficiary can send “Thank you” notes to the donors and also post updates on the fundraiser page. You must know that you will not have the option to edit the actual content of the fundraiser like the story, title, and the main image.

You can change who receives the money if you’re no longer able to:
