1. Introduction & Acceptance
Welcome to Amanatick ("Platform", "we", "us", or "our"). Amanatick is an online crowdfunding technology platform that enables individuals and organizations ("Campaign Organizers") to raise funds for charitable, personal, and community causes from donors ("Donors") worldwide.
By accessing or using our website, services, tools, or any features provided by Amanatick (collectively, the "Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Services.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Amanatick. Please read them carefully before using the Platform.
2. Eligibility
To use Amanatick, you must:
- Be at least 18 years of age or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction.
- Have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
- Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information.
- Not have been previously suspended or removed from the Platform.
By creating an account, you represent and warrant that all information you provide is truthful and accurate, and you agree to update it as necessary.
3. Account Registration & Security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
Amanatick reserves the right to suspend or terminate any account that we reasonably believe is being used in violation of these Terms or for fraudulent purposes.
4. How Amanatick Works
Amanatick provides the technology and infrastructure for Campaign Organizers to create fundraising campaigns and for Donors to contribute to those campaigns. Amanatick is not a party to any transaction between Campaign Organizers and Donors. We act solely as an intermediary platform.
Amanatick does not guarantee that campaigns will reach their funding goals, nor do we guarantee the use of funds by Campaign Organizers. Donors contribute at their own discretion and risk.
5. Campaign Guidelines
Campaign Organizers agree to the following:
- All campaign information must be truthful, accurate, and not misleading.
- Funds raised must be used for the stated purpose of the campaign.
- Campaign Organizers must provide updates to Donors when reasonably requested.
- Campaigns must comply with all applicable laws and regulations in the Campaign Organizer's jurisdiction.
- Campaign Organizers are solely responsible for fulfilling any promises or commitments made in their campaigns.
Amanatick reserves the right to review, approve, reject, or remove any campaign at our sole discretion, including but not limited to campaigns that violate these Terms or applicable laws.
6. Prohibited Campaigns & Content
The following types of campaigns and content are strictly prohibited on Amanatick:
- Campaigns that promote violence, terrorism, hate speech, or discrimination.
- Fraudulent, deceptive, or misleading campaigns.
- Campaigns for illegal activities or products.
- Campaigns involving gambling, lotteries, or games of chance.
- Campaigns for the sale of weapons, drugs, alcohol, tobacco, or other regulated substances.
- Campaigns that infringe on intellectual property rights of third parties.
- Sexually explicit or obscene content.
- Campaigns intended to launder money or finance prohibited activities.
- Any campaign that violates applicable local, national, or international laws.
Amanatick reserves the right to remove any campaign or content that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these guidelines, without prior notice.
7. Platform Fees
Amanatick charges a 5% platform fee on each donation to sustain platform operations. During checkout, Donors are given the option to cover this fee on behalf of the campaign.
7.1 If the Donor covers the platform fee
The 5% fee is added on top of the donation. For example, a $100 donation results in a $105 charge ($100 + $5 fee). The Campaign Organizer receives the full $100.
7.2 If the Donor does not cover the platform fee
The 5% fee is deducted from the donation internally. For example, a $100 donation results in a $100 charge. The Campaign Organizer receives $95, and $5 goes to Amanatick.
In both cases, the donation amount displayed publicly on the campaign page is the amount entered by the Donor (e.g. $100), regardless of whether the fee was covered. Platform fees are never displayed publicly on campaign pages.
In addition to the platform fee, third-party payment processors (such as Stripe) charge their own processing fees (approximately 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction). These fees are deducted by Stripe from the total payment and are separate from Amanatick's platform fee.
8. Payouts & Minimum Threshold
Funds raised through campaigns will be disbursed to Campaign Organizers subject to the following conditions:
- Minimum payout threshold: A minimum of $200 USD (or equivalent in the campaign's currency) must be raised before a payout can be issued. Campaigns that do not reach this minimum will not receive a payout until the threshold is met.
- Payout timing: Payouts are processed within 14 business days after the campaign ends or after the minimum threshold is reached, whichever comes later.
- Payout methods: Campaign Organizers may receive payouts via Stripe, PayPal, or Wise, depending on their chosen payout method during campaign creation.
- Verification: Amanatick may require identity verification or additional documentation before processing payouts, particularly for large amounts or campaigns flagged for review.
- Withholding: Amanatick reserves the right to withhold, delay, or reverse payouts if we suspect fraud, a violation of these Terms, or if required by law.
9. Donations & Refund Policy
All donations made through Amanatick are voluntary and generally non-refundable. By making a donation, you acknowledge that:
- You are making a contribution of your own free will.
- You have no expectation of receiving goods or services in return (unless the campaign explicitly states otherwise).
- Amanatick does not guarantee how Campaign Organizers will use the funds.
Refunds may be issued at Amanatick's sole discretion in the following circumstances:
- The campaign is determined to be fraudulent.
- A duplicate or accidental charge occurred.
- The Donor contacts us within 7 days of the donation with a valid reason.
To request a refund, please contact us at contact@amanatick.com. Refund requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
