Fundamental Principles

Help people do the best work of their lives

Here’s how fundraising on Shoho works:

To get started, just tap the green ‘Start a Shoho’ button. After a few questions to help set up your fundraiser, you’ll then write your fundraising story or, if you’re on the app, you can record a video. Next, you’ll customize your fundraiser, adding details to let potential donors understand your cause.

Once your fundraiser is live, you can always add additional photos and videos or lower or raise your goal anytime. The best way to raise funds is by sharing your fundraiser. Call family, text friends, message coworkers, or post your fundraiser link on social media to help you reach your fundraising goal.

Even if you haven’t met your fundraising goal, you can set up daily transfers to your bank account to receive money. If you need us, we’ll be there every step of the way with fundraising tips and support. Ready to get started? Start a Shoho

Shoho features the very best in secure payment encryption technology. Your donors’ online payments are safe, and your money is stored securely until you’re ready to request a withdrawal via electronic bank transfer.

 

Once your Shoho starts receiving online donations, you can easily request a withdrawal at any time. Withdrawing money does not affect the progress meter displayed on your fundraiser. Simply click ‘Withdraw’ while logged into your account and follow the instructions. You can withdraw your balance directly to your bank account. Bank transfers take 2-5 business days to arrive.

Yes. Shoho makes it easy for another friend or family member to securely access the funds you have raised. Through Shoho, they will receive direct access to the money you have raised. Please note: You will not be able to enter their bank information during the withdrawal process; they will need to do this themselves. Learn how to invite a beneficiary

 

While there are important withdrawals deadlines you’ll need to observe to avoid donations being refunded to donors, your fundraiser will remain live until you choose to turn off donations or remove the fundraiser altogether. Most organizers leave their fundraisers active indefinitely to refer back to the kind comments and support they received. Learn more

No problem. Reaching your goal is not required. With Shoho, you keep each and every donation you receive. Your fundraiser will be able to accept donations even after your goal is reached. Once the goal is reached, the progress meter on your fundraiser will show that you have received more than your goal amount. If you’d like to continue raising money, you can keep your fundraiser running for as long as you’d like. Learn more about goals
