Frequently Asked

GiveWheel is typically unable to offer refunds as we pass the money to charity beneficiaries on a regular basis. Once the money has been sent we ask donors to contact the charity who will take a decision whether to refund directly. 

To find donation details to arrange a refund, navigate to the donor stream tab. Clicking the export CSV button will download a report showing all transactions. To locate an individual supporter you can press Ctrl + F to search for the donor's details.

Using these details, you can verify that the request is from a legitimate donor and could issue a cheque in the post, or make a transfer. 

If you have already claimed Gift Aid, please contact HMRC directly.

GiveWheel does not provide a Gift Aid reclamation service but collects Gift Aid declarations from donors at the point of donation and makes these available to charities. For charities that have connected a Stripe account, donations on GiveWheel are made to the recipient charity who are entitled to reclaim eligible Gift Aid from HMRC themselves. GiveWheel makes this process easy by providing exportable, itemised donations reports that include Gift Aid eligibility.

For charities that have not connected a Stripe account, donations are made directly to Charities Trust (charity no. 327489) for disbursement to the recipient charities. Charities Trust reclaim Gift Aid on the donations in their own name and transfer both the donation and reclaimed Gift Aid monthly to the charities as specified by the fundraiser or donor, minus their disbursement fees.

GiveWheel does not charge platform fees nor disbursement fees.

Gift Aid metrics on the platform are representative of how much Gift Aid is eligible to be reclaimed, not a guarantee that the charities have reclaimed Gift Aid.
