Nothing extra. Your split comes out of your margin on each sale. There's no fee on donations to registered charities we've verified, and our standard platform fee applies to what shoppers give to anyone else at checkout. Merchable covers card fees.

Can shoppers claim a tax deduction?

A checkout donation to a registered charity endorsed as a deductible gift recipient (DGR) can be tax-deductible, and the order email is the receipt. Donations to causes that aren't registered charities aren't tax-deductible, and checkout says so. The split from your sales is your donation, not the shopper's.

Can one design support more than one charity or cause?

Yes. A design can support several, each with its own split. Shoppers see a donation box for each one at checkout.

Do I need permission to use a charity's logo?

You ask to support a charity or cause and they approve you. They publish their official logos for you to use, and some also approve each design before it goes live.

When does the charity or cause get paid?

On the 1st of every month, Merchable pays each charity or cause everything raised the month before, with a statement.
