Money Funds can be created in one of 3 currencies: USD, GBP, and EUR. In order to accept contributions, you will need to add your bank details for a corresponding bank account, so we can transfer the money to you at a later date.
For example, if you create a money fund in USD, you must add a USD bank account, which is based in the US.
The fees for a money fund depend on the currency, but are generally as follows:
All contributions towards money funds are subject to a transaction fee of 3.9% plus 30¢.
There is also a payout fee of $1.45.
If you are expecting more contributions, it's often cheaper to wait and do one single large payout, rather than lots of smaller ones.
By default, your guests will be given the opportunity to cover the fees when they make their contribution. If you don't want them to see this option, you can turn it off when creating your fund.
You can also require that guests always include the fees in their contribution.
At our discretion we may also require guests to include the fees in their contributions to your fund.
If they do cover the fees, this will include the payout fee on each contribution.
These fees are subject to change, as we continue to work on lowering them. The fees charged will be the ones in effect on the date of each contribution, and on the date of the payout.
All contributions begin anti-fraud processing with our payment provider immediately, therefore refunds are not available.
Funds can only be paid out into a bank account of the same currency.
We may require a copy of personal ID (driving licence, passport, etc.) before paying out a fund, and may occassionaly request a short video call as further proof of identification.
When you request a Payout, the money should arrive in your bank within 5 days. However, complex fraud investigations may take weeks to process.
We reserve the right to withhold any contributions deemed to be fraudulent by the banks and/or payment providers.
If you create a fund, it is your responsibility to enter your bank details, and to ensure these bank details are correct. We are not responsible for erroneous bank details resulting in transferring your fund to the wrong account.
Please be sure to check your emails and add us (notifications@thingstogetme.com) to your white-list, to prevent our emails going in your spam folder.
If a contributor to your fund issues a chargeback with their card issuer, we will deduct $50 from your fund to cover the fees associated with processing it. This amount may increase at our discretion if your account incurs repeated chargebacks.
All chargebacks will be challenged, which may take several weeks. During this time you will need to credit your fund with the amount being disputed. If the chargeback returns in your favour, you will then receive these additional funds in your next Payout. All funds in your account risk being frozen until any outstanding chargebacks are settled.
Contributing towards a money fund
When you contribute towards a money fund, your contribution will immediately begin processing through the banking system and anti-fraud checks. For this reason refunds are not available.
Your contribution will be held in a secure bank account until the fund owner requests a payout.
This is the end of the service we provide to you.
Any agreements with how the fund owner should spend the money is between you and the fund owner. Regardless of how the fund owner advertised their fund, we are not involved or responsible for what the fund owner does with their money.
If you would like to receive items to your address but wish to keep your address private, you can use our free Private Shipping service.
When entering your address, if you're in a supported country (currently the UK or Norway or the US), you can decide to hide your address from public view.
When a guest wishes to "reserve" an item on a list with a hidden address, they will be charged a handling fee. Guests will then be given the address of our depot, and a code-name to send the item to.
If some of your guests already know your address, you can give them the option to bypass this handling fee. This means you can share the same list with close family and members of online groups simultaneously.
Your name and address is never visible to guests, so long as you've ticked the box to hide it.
When we receive the item at our depot, we will forward it on to the private address you entered on the list.
We accept no responsibility or liability for items lost or damaged in the postal system, and we reserve the right to reject forwarding items on that would exceed our size and weight limits (see below) or dangerous.
Items are never returned to the sender.
Refunds of the handling fee are capped at 90%.
The handling fee only covers the single item from a wish-list and cannot be re-used for multiple items, or an item not present on a list.
If an item is returned to us due to a failed delivery, we will work with the list owner to arrange re-delivery, which may incur an additional cost.
Likewise, if a prohibited item is sent to our depot, the list owner will need to arrange collection, or the item will be rejected and returned to the sender.
The following items are not permitted to be sent through our Private Shipping service:
We accept no responsibility for spoiled goods being sent through this service.
If items are returned to us we will endeavour to re-send, but any unclaimed items may be donated to charity.
For all competitions, entrants must be 18 years or older.

There's no time limit on how quickly a referral needs to complete the above actions, once they qualify, you will be rewarded.
