Get the help you need to keep your campaign moving.

Resolve a live issue with account access, invitations, collection, payouts, donations, receipts, or the MonthFund product.

Collection and payouts

Understand the collection path before you share it.

The steps for preparing a campaign, collecting gifts, and receiving funds are related, but they are not the same. Use these answers to find the right next action for your organization.

Can I start collecting before Stripe Connect is complete?

Eligible organization workspaces may show an option to appoint MonthFund as the organization's limited payment agent. After an authorized organizer confirms that appointment, MonthFund can collect gifts on the organization's behalf while Stripe Connect is unfinished. This option is not available for personal fundraisers.

What happens to gifts collected through the interim option?

MonthFund holds those gifts until the organization completes Stripe Connect and payouts are ready. The organization still needs to connect Stripe before funds can be deposited to its bank.

Can we keep preparing and sharing while Stripe is unfinished?

Yes. You can review the campaign, invite community fundraisers, and share public links while Stripe is unfinished. To accept gifts, use either a connected Stripe account or the eligible interim collection option.

What if I do not see the interim collection option?

Connect Stripe to use the direct collection path. If you expected to see the option and have a question about your organization workspace, contact MonthFund support.

Access and invitations

Find the right invitation and workspace.

I cannot find my community fundraiser invitation.

Check the email address your organizer used, including spam and promotions folders. If the invitation is missing, use the self-service invitation resend option from Help. If you still cannot sign in, contact support with the email address that should receive the invitation and the organization name.

I already have a MonthFund account. How do I join another campaign?

Open the invitation from the new organization. MonthFund will connect the new campaign to the correct fundraiser workspace. If you participate with more than one organization, switch workspaces from your fundraiser dashboard.

An organizer says my invitation was sent, but I did not receive it.

Ask the organizer to check the roster and resend the invitation. If the roster shows a delivery issue, the organizer can retry from the roster. If the problem continues, contact MonthFund support.

Donations and receipts

Get help after a supporter chooses a day.

What if a payment does not go through?

Check the message sent to the email address entered at checkout. It includes a link back to the campaign so the supporter can try again. If the issue continues, contact MonthFund support and include the campaign link.

Where can I find a receipt or ask about a refund?

The confirmation email is the first place to look for donation details. Contact the organization for questions about how funds will be used, tax documentation, or an organization-specific refund. Contact MonthFund for a technical payment or receipt issue.

Still need help?

Tell us what you are trying to do, where you are getting stuck, and the email address connected to your MonthFund account. Include the campaign link if the question relates to a live campaign.
