Terms of service

For churches

• GoodSeed costs a flat monthly fee (currently £9.99). We never take a percentage of your gifts. Your payment provider, Stripe, charges its own processing fees directly to your Stripe account.
• Gifts are paid into your church’s own Stripe account and paid out to your bank by Stripe. GoodSeed does not hold or handle donated money.
• You are responsible for your Stripe account, for the accuracy of your charity details, and for your Gift Aid claims to HMRC. GoodSeed prepares claim schedules to help you.
• You are the data controller for your donors’ information and must use it lawfully. GoodSeed processes it on your behalf only to provide the service.
• You can cancel at any time from Plan & billing. If you stop paying, your giving page pauses; your records stay available to export.
• We may suspend accounts that are used for fraud or for anything other than genuine charitable giving.

For donors

• Your gift goes to the church you choose. Refund requests should be made to that church.
• Regular gifts continue until you change or cancel them, which you can do at any time from your giving dashboard or by contacting the church.
• Only make a Gift Aid declaration if you are a UK taxpayer and it is your own money.
