Site Terms and Conditions

These Terms must be read together with any Terms and Conditions specific to a particular event (“Event Terms”) and which are located on the fundraising page for that event. If there is any conflict between these Terms and any Event Terms, then these Terms will prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

Introduction and acceptance of terms

  1. Welcome to the GoFundraise fundraising platform. This website is owned and operated by GoFundraise NZ Limited of Level 10, 21 Queen Street, CBD, Auckland 1010 (“GoFundraise”, “We”, “Us”). Our Australian address is Suite 508, 19A Boundary St, Rushcutters Bay, NSW 2011. The use of this website, and all services and online tools (the Platform) that GoFundraise makes available to donors, registrants and other users of the GoFundraise service (“Users”, “You”, “Your”) is governed by these Terms & Conditions (“Terms”). Your access and use of the Platform constitutes your agreement with, and acceptance of these Terms, and if You do not accept these Terms You may not use or continue to use the Platform.
  2. These Terms and Conditions may change or be updated from time to time and it is Your responsibility to ensure that when You use the Platform, You remain in agreement with the then current Terms.

Overview

  1. The Platform is an online fundraising facility. GoFundraise acts as agent of the Non-Profit Organisations (“NFPs”), Donee organisations and other users of the Platform facilities (“Other Clients”) (Other Clients and NFPs together and each a “Beneficiary”) with limited authority limited to the delivery of online services and consequential accounting, adequate to facilitate the collection, accounting and payment of funds raised. Beneficiaries and Users are given access to functionality that enables them to create fundraising campaigns, build web pages and contact their networks. All such actions are the actions of the relevant Beneficiary or User.
  2. As a general proposition, GoFundraise accepts no liability whatsoever for the actions of Beneficiaries or Users on the Platform.
  3. Every Beneficiary listed on this Website has a contract with GoFundraise authorising Us to collect donations on its behalf, and we take reasonable steps to substantiate the Not-For-Profit status of NFP’s during the registration and contracting process.
  4. Despite clause 5, GoFundraise accepts no liability for ensuring that any Beneficiary applies the proceeds received from a donation in any particular way. If a User is dissatisfied with a Beneficiary's use donation, the User should contact that Beneficiary directly.

GoFundraise fees

  1. GoFundraise charges the Beneficiary a service fee of between 0.75 - 5% + GST (depending on the plan of the Beneficiary or where the donation is facilitated) for its services. The fee is deducted from gross donations collected on behalf of the Beneficiary. After an introductory period following registration of the Beneficiary, there may be a per annum hosting and administration fee payable by the Beneficiary depending on their plan. Regular Giving payments are charged at 1.95% + GST to the Beneficiary. Direct donations to a Charity’s fundraising portal (located at www.gofundraise.co.nz/beneficiaries/search ) are charged at the amazingly low administration fee of 0.75% service fee + GST and processing cost. Other transactions are charged at the rate based on their plan.
  2. GoFundraise also recovers a credit card processing fees from the gross transaction amount. These fees are at the current market rate of 1.4% + $ 0.18 per transaction for Visa & MasterCard (GST exempt), 2.9% + $ 0.18 for American Express (GST exempt) and 2.9% for PayPal (GST exempt). The PayPal transaction fee is $ 0.50. These fees are subject to change. Any transaction consisting of more than one beneficiary may incur an additional $ 0.18 fee for credit cards or $ 0.50 for PayPal (per beneficiary).
  3. An example of the way this fee structure works for a direct donation to a Charities fundraising portal is as follows:

    Total Donation $ 30.00
    Administration fee of 0.75% $ 0.23
    GST on administration fee (15%) $ 0.03
    Credit card processing fee (1.4%) $ 0.42
    Credit card transaction fee $ 0.18
    Total fees $ 0.86
    Net amount to beneficiary $ 29.14
    GST amount claimed back via beneficiary $ 0.03
    TOTAL TO BENEFICIARY $ 29.18
  4. If GoFundraise provides services additional to the collection of donations through the Platform at the request of a Beneficiary, then fees for those specific services apply.

Credit Card Payments

  1. Any donation, purchases or other transactions made through the Platform by a User inserting that User’s credit card details is final and not disputable.

A User can modify the amount and frequency of a Regular Giving payment up to 72 hours prior to a scheduled payment.

  2. A user can cancel their Regular Giving donation at anytime through their GoFundraise User Account (see How to cancel a Regular Giving donation).
