General questions
What is Beg.com?

Who can donate on Beg.com?
Anyone can browse public fundraisers and donate. Payments are processed securely through configured providers such as Stripe. You do not need an account to give on most campaigns.
Who can start a fundraiser?
Anyone who needs financial help — for themselves, a loved one, or a community cause — can create an account and start a push. You set one funding goal, tell your story, choose a category, and pick a deadline of up to 30 days.
How long do campaigns last?
Beg.com uses focused campaigns with a maximum window of 30 days. Short deadlines create urgency and help supporters act quickly.
Is donating on Beg.com safe?
Yes. Donations are processed with industry-standard encryption through trusted payment processors. Beg.com does not ask donors to send money by informal cash apps as the primary checkout path.
How do organizers receive money?
Funds from successful donations are handled through the platform’s payout flow after payment processing. Organizers connect payout details in their dashboard according to the configured payment provider.
What makes Beg.com different from other crowdfunding sites?
Beg.com emphasizes transparent 30-day pushes: one goal, one deadline, public progress, and optional expense ledgers so donors understand the purpose of the campaign.
Can I fundraise for medical bills or emergencies?
Yes. Medical and emergency are core categories. You can start a medical or emergency fundraiser, or donate to active campaigns helping patients and families in crisis.
Can people outside my country donate?
Yes. Beg.com is built for worldwide support. Supporters from many countries can discover campaigns and donate through supported payment methods.
How do I find someone to help?
Use Explore to search active fundraisers, or Browse by category (medical, emergency, education, family, community, and more). You can also open Donate to see featured campaigns needing support.
I need financial help urgently — what should I do?
Create an account, start a fundraiser with a clear goal and honest story, choose the right category, then share your campaign link with family, friends, and communities. Short deadlines and transparent updates help people trust and give.
Does Beg.com charge donors extra fees?
Creating a campaign is free. Beg.com charges organisers a platform fee on withdrawals (payouts), not a separate “Beg fee” line item to donors at checkout. Payment processors such as Stripe may apply their own card or currency fees. Always review the amount on the secure checkout page. Full details are in the Fees & Refunds policy.
Are donations refundable?
Donations are generally non-refundable once successfully processed. Limited exceptions may apply for duplicate payments, confirmed fraud while funds remain available, or where mandatory consumer or payment-network rules require it. Contact support@beg.com to request a review.
What happens if a campaign is rejected?
If a campaign is rejected before it goes live, it cannot collect donations. If a live campaign is suspended or rejected, new donations may stop and withdrawals are blocked while Beg reviews the case. Funds still under Beg’s control may be held or refunded where appropriate. See the Fees & Refunds policy for details.
Can I share a fundraiser on WhatsApp or social media?
Yes. Every campaign page includes share tools for WhatsApp, X, Facebook, LinkedIn, email, copy-link, and a downloadable story image for Instagram or TikTok.
Are campaigns verified?
Some organizers and campaigns may show a verified badge after platform review. Always read the story, updates, and ledger when available, and donate only to causes you trust.
For donors
How do I donate to someone in need?
Open a campaign page on Beg.com, choose an amount, and complete secure checkout. You will receive a confirmation when the payment succeeds.
Can I donate anonymously?
Where the donation form allows, you can choose not to display your name publicly on the campaign’s supporter activity.
What should I look for before donating?
Read the story, check the goal and deadline, review updates, look for verification badges when present, and review any public expense ledger so you understand how funds are intended to be used.
For people raising money
