Register Your Campaign
Submit your GoFundMe, Kickstarter, or any campaign link. Pay a small one-time listing fee to get started immediately.

Our Donor Network

Not random visitors. Registered givers.

This is the question every fundraiser should ask before paying to list anywhere. Here is our honest answer.

01
REG
Donors Apply to Join
Our donors are not random people who stumbled in from Google. They register through Backers Edge, agree to our giving guidelines, and are issued a unique donor access code. They showed up specifically to give.
02
VET
They Are Vetted Too
We do not let anyone call themselves a donor on this platform. Registered donors are onboarded manually via our team. This keeps the network serious, intentional, and free of bad actors on both sides.
03
ACT
They Browse Actively
Registered donors log in using their access code to browse verified campaigns. They are not passive they came to find a campaign worth supporting. Your verified listing is what they are looking for.
Verification

What we actually check before you go live

Every campaign is personally reviewed by our verification team before it goes live. Here is exactly what we check.

SOC
Identity Verification
Our team confirms the organizer is a real person through social proof such as a public profile, campaign page, or verifiable online presence. Anonymous campaigns are never approved.
URL
Campaign Link Check
We visit your actual GoFundMe or campaign link, confirm it is live, matches your submitted details, and has not been flagged on any platform.
STY
Story Review
We read your campaign narrative for consistency, credibility, and clarity. Vague or suspicious pitches are sent back for revision before approval.
CAT
Category Eligibility
We confirm your campaign falls within our accepted categories. Political campaigns, investment pitches, and guideline violations are declined with a full refund.
DUP
Duplicate Check
We cross-check every submission against existing listings. The same campaign cannot be listed twice or under different names to inflate visibility.
GO
Approval and Go-Live
Once approved, your campaign is listed and your verified badge is active. You will be notified via the email address you submitted in your application within 24–48 hours.
Two Guarantees. Zero Risk.
Not approved? Full refund within 48 hours. Approved and listed but received zero donations? Full refund. Either way you never lose your money.
