Questions about pricing
Why is there a fee?
Paychangu is the payment processor that securely moves the money between accounts, and it charges 3% to do that. That's the only fee deducted from a payment - a small part of it also goes toward keeping the platform running, hosted, and improving, so pages stay free to create and use.
Does the supporter or the campaign owner pay the fee?
The fee is deducted from the amount before it reaches the campaign owner. The supporter always sees and sends the exact amount they chose.
Are there any fees to start a page?
No. Creating a page and campaign is free. The 3% fee only applies when money actually moves.
When do I get my money?
Funds are available for withdrawal to Airtel Money or TNM Mpamba with no waiting period once a supporter's payment clears.
