Chuffed Crowdfunding Academy

Tips, case studies, videos and lessons from 1000s of successful social cause crowdfunding campaigns

Our guide to crowdfunding

Crowdfunding is a new way for you to raise money online for your not-for-profit, charity, social enterprise, community project or person in need.

We recommend the following process:

1
Before you start
Before starting, find out what crowdfunding is, if you're eligible, how much you can raise and what the fees are.
2
Create your page
Design your crowdfunding page. You can customize content, images, video, set your target and timeframe and more.
3
Promote your campaign
Create a campaign team, send out your campaign via email, Facebook and Twitter and get donations.
4
Get paid
As funds come in, they'll be transferred to your bank or PayPal account directly. You'll get 100% of what you raise and we'll take care of receipts.
5
Follow up
The fun part. Do your project, send your donors progress updates and deliver your perks.
