Nativa Alliance Community Action currently charges a 5% platform and campaign-hosting fee on successful donations received through campaigns hosted on the platform.
Unless otherwise stated, the percentage is calculated using the gross amount of successful campaign donations before third-party processing fees.
Payment-processing fees are separate.
Applicable refunds, reversals, chargebacks, adjustments, or processing charges may affect the final amount available for payout.
The platform may change fees prospectively by updating its published fee disclosures.
Campaign organizers may purchase optional featured or promotional placement.
Featured placement:
Does not guarantee donations
Does not guarantee campaign success
Does not guarantee a particular number of website visitors
Does not give a campaign priority regarding fraud or compliance review
Featured campaign fees are separate from ordinary campaign platform and processing fees.
Donors are responsible for deciding whether to contribute to a campaign.
A contribution does not create an ownership interest, investment interest, partnership, or right to profit unless a separate legally compliant arrangement expressly states otherwise.
The platform does not guarantee that a campaign will achieve its stated goal.
Donors should review campaign information before contributing.
The platform may undertake reasonable review procedures but cannot independently guarantee every factual statement made by every campaign organizer.
Donors should report suspicious campaigns to Nativa Alliance Community Action.
Refund requests will be handled according to applicable platform rules, payment-processor requirements, the status of the campaign payout, and applicable law.
Submitting a refund request does not guarantee that a refund will be approved.
Payment disputes and chargebacks may cause campaign proceeds to be delayed, reduced, withheld, or adjusted.
Campaign organizers may be responsible for amounts associated with valid chargebacks, reversals, or related fees to the extent permitted by applicable law and processor agreements.
Eligible campaign proceeds will generally be initiated for payout within the period stated in the Campaign Disclosure, Fees & Payouts Policy.
Payouts may be delayed because of:
Identity verification
Bank verification
Processor review
Fraud concerns
Chargebacks
Payment disputes
Missing information
Legal restrictions
Technical issues
Financial-institution processing
The date funds appear in a recipient’s bank account is ultimately affected by the recipient’s bank and payment processor.

Providing false or incomplete payout information may delay or prevent payment.

Nativa Alliance Community Action does not provide tax advice.
Campaign proceeds may have different tax consequences depending on the circumstances.
Campaign organizers should retain appropriate records and consult a qualified tax professional when necessary.
A donation made through this platform is not automatically tax-deductible.
Unless a particular campaign expressly states that donations are being received by an eligible tax-exempt organization and appropriate documentation is available, donors should not assume that a contribution qualifies as a charitable deduction.
Campaign organizers retain ownership of content they lawfully own.
By submitting campaign material for publication, the organizer grants Nativa Alliance Community Action permission to host, display, reproduce, format, and promote that content for purposes related to operating and promoting the campaign and platform.
The organizer represents that they have permission to provide such materials.
