Getting Started: Donors

Someone will share a donation page link with you — via email, social media, or a website. Click the link to open the page.

On the donation page you'll see:

• A description of the cause or project you're supporting
• The recipients — the people or organizations who will receive your gift, and what percentage each will receive
• Any tax deductibility notes for nonprofit recipients

Select how much you'd like to give:

• Click one of the suggested amounts (e.g., $25, $50, $100) for quick selection
• Or enter a custom amount in the text field

As you choose your amount, you'll see a live breakdown of how much each recipient will receive.

You'll also see the option to cover the fees. If you check this box, a small amount is added to your total so that the full amount you intended goes to the recipients — none is lost to processing fees.

SplitGive.app uses Stripe to securely process all payments. Your card details go directly to Stripe — SplitGive.app never stores them.

1. Enter your name and email address — your receipt will be sent to this email
2. Enter your card number, expiration date, and CVC
3. Click Donate to submit your payment

Once your payment is confirmed, SplitGive.app automatically divides your donation between all the recipients according to their percentages.

For example, if you donate $100 to a page with two recipients at 60% and 40%:

• Recipient A receives $60 (minus any fees)
• Recipient B receives $40 (minus any fees)

Each recipient gets paid directly to their Stripe account — SplitGive.app never holds the funds.

You'll receive a receipt by email right after your donation is processed.

Your receipt includes:

• Total donation amount and date
• How your donation was split between each recipient, with amounts
• Tax status of each recipient (including EIN for eligible nonprofits)
• A link to download a PDF receipt for your records
