3.1.3. Access to these services is provided solely for the purpose of facilitating Events and contributions in accordance with these Terms. The Platform reserves the right to remove, disable, or restrict access to any Event where it reasonably believes that such Event is inconsistent with or violates these Terms, applicable law, or Platform policies.

3.2. Event Publication and Finality:

3.2.1. Events created by Hosts remain in draft status until explicitly published by the Host. Upon publication, the Event becomes live and accessible to Guests via a unique Event page link. The invitation emails are sent to the Guest’s contact details provided by the Hosts.

3.2.2. The Event configuration, including Event details, selected Charity, contribution split, and invitation content, becomes final and non-editable once the Event is published by the Hosts and becomes live. The Hosts can add to the Guest list till the Event comes to an end.

3.2.3. The Platform does not review, verify, or endorse Event descriptions, invitation content, wishlists, or representations made by Hosts, and Hosts remain solely responsible for the accuracy and legality of such content. All Event descriptions, invitation content, and wishlists will be part of User Content in accordance with Clause 6 of these Terms and will be governed accordingly.

3.2.4. Hosts acknowledge and agree that Events cannot be unpublished once published, and once invitations have been sent or contributions have been received, no changes to event details, charity selection, or contribution split are permitted. Hosts are solely responsible for reviewing and confirming all Event information prior to publication.

3.3. Guest Access and Participation:

3.3.1. Guests are not required to create an Account on the Platform. Guests may access an Event through the unique Event link provided in the invitation and may view Event details, Charity information, and the applicable contribution split without making a contribution.

The Platform does not control, edit, or customise communications initiated by Hosts and does not mediate communications between Hosts and Guests.

3.3.5.

3.4. Charities and Tax Treatment:

3.4.1. All charities available for selection on the Platform are Singapore-registered and pre-onboarded by the Platform. Some of these charities may also hold Institution of Public Character (IPC) status in Singapore, which, under applicable Singapore tax law, allows donors to claim certain tax deductions for qualifying donations made to them.

3.4.2. For tax purposes, the Host is treated as the donor in respect of the charitable donation component of contributions, and the Guests are contributors only and are not donors for tax purposes. Any tax receipt, where applicable, is issued by the relevant Charity to the Hosts. Insofar as applicable tax treatment is concerned, only donations made to approved IPCs may be eligible for tax deductions under Singapore law.

3.4.3. Users acknowledge and agree that receipt of any tax benefit is dependent on the charity’s IPC status and the applicable tax framework, and the Platform does not guarantee tax deductibility.

3.4.4. Users acknowledge and agree that the Platform does not issue tax receipts and does not provide tax advice, but may facilitate the forwarding of receipts received from the Charity. Please note that the tax treatment may vary based on changes in law or regulatory guidance.

3.5. Disbursement, Fees, and Refunds:

3.5.1. Following the conclusion of an Event and receipt of contributions, the charitable donation portion and the Host gift portion will be disbursed in accordance with the contribution split selected by the Host.

4. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE USERS

4.1. The Platform acts solely as a technology facilitator that enables Hosts to organise Events and collect contributions from Guests. For clarity, the Platform is not a charity, and the Platform does not solicit donations in its own name. All contributions are facilitated strictly at the direction of the Host and subject to these Terms.

4.2. The Platform does not control, direct, or supervise how Hosts organise Events, select Charities, or communicate with Guests. The Platform does not guarantee the success of any Event, the outcomes of any charitable activity, or any tax treatment beyond what is expressly stated on the Platform.

4.3. The Platform does not monitor, audit, or control how Charities utilise funds after disbursement and makes no representations regarding the use or impact of such funds.

4.4. The Platform does not endorse, verify, or assume responsibility for the content, purpose, or outcomes of any Event, including Event descriptions, invitation content, or communications created or shared by Hosts or Guests. Communications and interactions between Users occur independently of the Platform.

4.5. Any agreements, arrangements, communications, or disputes between Users (including Hosts, Guests, or Charities) are solely between the relevant parties. Users are responsible for exercising their own judgment and due diligence when interacting with other Users and for complying with applicable laws, including those relating to privacy, data sharing, and communications.

4.6. Nothing in these Terms creates any agency, partnership, joint venture, employment, or representative relationship between the Company and any User. The Company acts solely as a technology and payment facilitation service provider and does not act as a trustee, escrow agent, fiduciary, or financial intermediary for Users, notwithstanding that funds may be temporarily received, held, or processed for the limited purpose of facilitating contributions and disbursements in accordance with these Terms. The Platform does not supervise or participate in Events and disclaims responsibility for any issues arising from User conduct, including attendance, non-attendance, cancellations, miscommunications, offensive content, or disputes between Users.

4.7. Users acknowledge and agree that their use of the Platform and interactions with other Users are undertaken at their own risk. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Company shall not be responsible for losses or claims arising from User-to-User interactions, whether online or offline.

4.10. In the event of disputes between Users, the Platform does not mediate, arbitrate, or provide legal advice. However, the Platform may permit Users to report suspected fraud, impersonation, scams, or abusive conduct and reserves the right to review such reports and take appropriate action in accordance with its policies.

5. PAYMENT TERMS

5.1. You acknowledge that the registration and Account creation on the Platform are currently free of charge. However, the Company reserves the right to introduce paid features or pricing models in the future, including but not limited to subscription plans, premium features, add-on services, in-app purchases, or early access features, at its sole discretion. Any such changes will be communicated in advance, and no User will be charged unless they expressly opt in and agree to the applicable payment terms.

5.2. Platform Fees and Remittance:

5.2.1. You acknowledge that the Company charges Hosts a platform fee of six percent (6%) (“Platform Fee”) in connection with Events and contributions facilitated through the Platform.

5.2.2. Upon conclusion of an Event, all contributions collected shall be calculated and split in accordance with the Host’s selected contribution split. The portion allocated to the selected Charity shall be transferred to the Charity, and the remaining portion shall be remitted to the Host’s designated bank account after deduction of the Platform Fee and applicable third-party payment processing fees.

5.2.3. Hosts are responsible for providing complete, accurate, and valid bank account details or PayNow details for the purpose of remittance. Where a Host fails to provide such details within eight (8) weeks from the conclusion of an Event, the Host irrevocably forfeits any entitlement to the Host gift portion of the contributions. In such circumstances, the Company shall, without further notice or liability, transfer the entire net amount (after deduction of applicable Platform Fees and payment processing charges) to the selected Charity in accordance with the contribution split framework.

5.2.4. The Host acknowledges and agrees that failure to provide timely bank or PayNow details constitutes an instruction to allocate the remaining funds to the Charity, and the Company shall have no further obligation to remit any amount to the Host thereafter.

5.2.5. All payments are processed through the Platform’s integrated third-party Payment Processor(s).

5.2.6. The Company shall deduct applicable Platform Fees and permitted deductions at the time of settlement and remit the net payable amount to the Host in accordance with these Terms and the payment processor’s settlement schedule. Payouts are typically processed within seven (7) to ten (10) business days, subject to verification, processing timelines, and banking delays.

5.2.7. Hosts acknowledge that all payouts are net of Platform Fees, payment processing charges, chargebacks, reversals, or other amounts owed under these Terms.

5.2.8. All contributions made through the Platform are final and non-refundable, except where a refund is required under applicable law or mandated by the Payment Processor in connection with a chargeback or payment reversal.

5.2.9. If a Guest initiates a chargeback or payment reversal, the Company may recover the applicable amount from the Host by deducting it from future payouts, reversing the relevant settlement, or suspending the Host’s Account pending resolution. The Company shall not be responsible for payments that fail due to incorrect payment details, insufficient funds, bank rejections, or actions taken by the payment processor.

5.2.10. The Company reserves the right to revise the Platform Fees and/or settlement terms at any time at its sole discretion, with prior notice in accordance with applicable law.

5.3. Payment Terms:

5.3.1. You are authorised to use valid credit/debit cards or any other accepted payment methods, including online banking facilities, for transactional activities on our Platform.

5.3.4. Users understand that to the extent permitted by law (and unless specified otherwise by us in writing), all fees are exclusive of any taxes, levies, or duties imposed by relevant authorities (“Taxes”), and Users shall be responsible for payment of all applicable Taxes relating to their use of the Services, or to any payments made by them.

5.3.5. We use one or more third-party payment gateways or payment processing services (each, a “Payment Processor”) on the Platform. You acknowledge and agree that any payment made on the Platform shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions and privacy policies of the relevant Payment Processor. You understand that Payment Processors and their affiliates may process your personal data in accordance with their own privacy policies, contractual terms, and legal obligations. We do not control and are not responsible for the data processing practices of Payment Processors beyond what is necessary to facilitate the relevant transaction.

5.3.6. By accepting these Terms, you expressly authorise us and the Payment Processor to electronically collect, process, facilitate, and remit payments through electronic means on the Platform.
5.3.7. You acknowledge, understand, and agree that the payment facility provided by us constitutes neither a banking nor a financial service. Instead, we function as a facilitator, offering an electronic, automated online payment and remittance facility for transactions on the Platform through the existing authorised banking infrastructure and credit card payment gateway networks. It is imperative to clarify that, in providing the payment facility, we assume neither the role of a trustee nor engage in a fiduciary capacity concerning the transaction and do not assume any trustee or fiduciary responsibilities in relation to such transactions.

5.3.8. We affirm that the information provided by you in this regard will be treated as confidential and will not be divulged to any third party, except as necessitated by the applicable laws, regulations, and/or processes of any government authority, and/or in connection with any judicial proceedings pertaining to legal actions, suits, and/or proceedings arising from or related to these Terms.

5.3.9. We diligently report and pursue both confirmed and suspected instances of credit/debit card fraud. We may request additional authorisation from you, and the decision to seek further authorisation rests solely with us. We retain the right to annul, postpone, decline delivery, or retract any transaction in case of suspected fraud. We shall not be held liable to you for any losses arising from such cancellation.

5.3.10. During the transaction process, we collect specific information such as user ID, time, date, IP address, and other relevant details aimed at identifying individuals involved in fraudulent activities. In cases where a transaction is suspected to be fraudulent, relevant records may be disclosed to law enforcement agencies or payment networks, where required or permitted under applicable laws and the credit/debit card company for a thorough fraud investigation. We are committed to collaborating with authorities to ensure the prosecution of offenders to the maximum extent permitted by law.

5.3.11. You agree not to hold us liable for payments that do not reach us because they have quoted incorrect payment information or the Payment Processor refused the payment for any other reason.

16. TERMINATION

16.1. These Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Platform and/or Services. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES AND/OR PLATFORM (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN THESE LEGAL TERMS OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE, ACCESS, OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SOFTWARE AND/OR SERVICES AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION.

16.2. If we terminate or suspend your access to our Platform or your Account for any reason, you are prohibited from accessing the Platform under your name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third party, even if you may be acting on behalf of the third party. In addition to terminating or suspending your access, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including, without limitation, pursuing civil, criminal, and injunctive redress.

16.3. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate or suspend your Account/access to the Platform or Services, remove content, or disable any features or identifiers (whether chosen by you or assigned by us) at any time, at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to:

16.3.1. breach of any provision of these Terms, including failure to comply with the usage restrictions, including but not limited to licensing terms, Fair Usage Policy, user obligations and representations, or intellectual property rights;

16.5. Where a User’s Account or access to the Platform is suspended or terminated for any reason, including but not limited to breach of these Terms, violation of applicable law, regulatory or compliance concerns, or misuse of the Platform, and where any contributions in connection with an Event remain pending, unsettled, or undistributed at the time of such suspension or termination, the User irrevocably forfeits any entitlement to the Host gift portion of such contributions. In such circumstances, the Company shall, without further notice or liability, transfer the entire net amount (after deduction of applicable Platform Fees and payment processing charges) to the selected Charity in accordance with the contribution framework. The User acknowledges and agrees that no amount shall thereafter be payable or refundable to the User, and the Company shall have no further obligation in respect of such funds.

16.6. We may terminate these Terms by providing written notice to you if you fail to remedy a material breach of these Terms within seven (7) days of being notified of the breach.

16.7. You have the right to terminate your use of the Platform and Services at any time, without penalty. However, termination by you does not relieve you of any liability or obligations incurred prior to termination, including payment obligations or indemnity responsibilities.

17. DISCLAIMERS

17.1. THE PLATFORM AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN AS-IS AND AS-AVAILABLE BASIS. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM AND SERVICES WILL BE AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES AND YOUR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE SERVICES’ CONTENT OR THE CONTENT OF ANY PLATFORMS OR MOBILE APPLICATIONS LINKED TO THE SERVICES AND WE WILL ASSUME NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY (1) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES OF CONTENT AND MATERIALS, (2) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM USER ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES, (3) ANY UNAUTHORISED ACCESS TO OR USE OF OUR SECURE SERVERS AND/OR ANY AND ALL INFORMATION AND/OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN, (4) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SERVICES, AND (5) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE WHICH MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICES BY ANY THIRD PARTY. WE WILL NOT BE A PARTY TO OR IN ANY WAY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING ANY TRANSACTION BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. AS WITH THE PURCHASE OF A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THROUGH ANY MEDIUM OR IN ANY ENVIRONMENT, YOU SHOULD USE YOUR BEST JUDGMENT AND EXERCISE CAUTION WHERE APPROPRIATE.

17.2. We make no guarantees, representations, or warranties that your registration, participation in scheduled Events, use of the Platform, or engagement with other Users will result in any particular level of contributions, fundraising success, charitable impact, event outcome, personal benefit, or financial result, or any other desired outcome.

17.3. The Platform does not control, direct, or supervise how any Charity uses funds after disbursement. All contributions are transferred to the selected Charity in accordance with the contribution split chosen by the Host and are applied to the Charity’s general funds, unless otherwise expressly determined by the Charity in accordance with its internal policies and applicable law.

17.4. Users acknowledge and agree that contributions made through the Platform are not earmarked for any specific project, purpose, or activity of a Charity, and neither the Platform nor the Host has any authority to direct, restrict, or influence how a Charity applies such funds. The listing of a Charity on the Platform does not imply that contributions will be applied to any particular programme or initiative. Any use, application, or management of such funds is solely the responsibility of the relevant Charity. The Platform makes no representations or warranties regarding the utilisation, effectiveness, or outcomes of charitable activities funded through the Platform.

17.5. While the Platform may undertake basic onboarding or verification checks in respect of Charities made available for selection, such checks are limited in scope and are not intended to constitute legal, financial, or regulatory due diligence. Hosts remain solely responsible for conducting their own independent assessment of any Charity they select, including its registration status, eligibility for tax treatment, governance, and compliance with applicable laws.

17.6. The Platform is not a bank, financial institution, or money services business. The Platform does not provide anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing, or financial compliance services on behalf of Users. Users agree not to use the Platform for any unlawful, fraudulent, or illicit purposes, including money laundering, terrorist financing, or sanctions violations. The Platform reserves the right to suspend Events, Accounts, or disbursements where suspicious or unlawful activity is suspected, and to cooperate with authorities as required by applicable law.

17.7. Certain information, descriptions, images, or other content available on the Platform may be provided or curated by Charities or Hosts. The Platform does not verify, endorse, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of such content and shall not be responsible for any errors, omissions, or representations contained therein. Any reliance on such content is undertaken at the User’s own risk.

17.8. The Platform operates as a technology facilitator and endeavours to conduct its operations in accordance with applicable laws and regulations in Singapore. However, Users acknowledge and agree that compliance with laws governing charitable fundraising, solicitation, taxation, data protection, and communications remains their own responsibility. The Platform does not provide legal, tax, or regulatory advice and does not assume responsibility for ensuring User compliance with applicable charitable or fundraising regulations.

17.9. Any references to tax treatment, deductibility, or charitable status are provided for general informational purposes only. The availability of tax benefits depends on the Host’s individual circumstances, the applicable law, and the status of the selected Charity at the relevant time. Users acknowledge and agree that only the portion of a contribution allocated to the Charity may be eligible for tax deduction under applicable law, and that the portion allocated to the Host as a gift is not tax deductible. The Platform does not guarantee eligibility for tax deductions and does not provide tax advice. Users are responsible for consulting their own professional advisors regarding tax matters.

17.10. Contributions facilitated through the Platform are processed via third-party payment processors and may be temporarily received and held by the Platform solely for the purpose of facilitating settlement and disbursement in accordance with the selected contribution split and these Terms. The Platform does not hold funds in escrow for the benefit of any User or Charity and does not act as a trustee, fiduciary, custodian, or escrow agent with respect to such funds. No trust, escrow, custodial, or similar relationship is created between the Platform and any User or Charity by virtue of the temporary holding or processing of funds.

17.11. You must exercise caution when interacting with individuals attempting to contact you via social media, phone, email, or any other electronic medium outside of the official communication channels of the Platform. You agree to remain vigilant against fraudulent or misleading offers from persons falsely claiming to represent, work with, or be affiliated with us, particularly if contacted from unofficial phone numbers, email addresses, or accounts. Before engaging with such individuals, you are solely responsible for verifying their authenticity using the official contact details provided on the Platform. We shall not be liable for any losses, damages, or consequences resulting from interactions with unauthorised persons or third-party solicitations.

17.12. You understand and agree that utilising Services and engaging with third-party services through the Platform involves inherent risks. We cannot ensure specific outcomes from such interactions and usage. Therefore, you assume all associated risks, liabilities, and potential harm that may arise from these interactions. These risks include, but are not limited to, misrepresentation of information by third-party services, breaches of warranty or contract, rights violations, and any resulting claims or consequences.

17.13. Except as provided in these Terms, no further warranty, condition, undertaking, or term, express or implied, statutory or otherwise, as to the condition, quality, performance, or fitness for the Platform provided in accordance with these Terms is given by us, other than as required by law. All implied warranties are hereby excluded; and

17.14. We do not recommend the use of the Platform for hosting personal content and shall not bear any security or integrity obligations or risks regarding breach or damage to any such content.
