Can guests bring the item instead of paying?
Yes. Each item can have an “I'll bring it” button. The guest leaves their name and number, the item is taken off what's still needed, and you get an email so you can coordinate.
Can several people chip in for one big item?
Yes. Unless you switch it off for an item, people can give any part of the price. The item shows how much is still needed and is marked covered when it's fully paid.
How do supporters know the money was used for the item?
When you buy an item, mark it bought on your list and add a photo of the receipt or the item. Supporters see it on your page.
Do I have to set prices?
Yes, so people know what each item costs. Ready-made lists come without prices because prices differ by town and shop. Only the items you price appear on your page.
Is it free to start a fundraiser on Zanja?
Yes. Creating a campaign is free. Zanja keeps 5% of each donation to cover payment processing and running the platform. There are no monthly fees.
How can people in Zambia donate?
Supporters pay with Airtel Money, MTN MoMo, Zamtel Kwacha, Visa and Mastercard. They do not need a Zanja account, and mobile money payments are approved on their phone with their PIN.
Can people outside Zambia donate?
Yes. Friends and family abroad can give with a Visa or Mastercard debit or credit card.
How do I receive the money?
Donations go into your Zanja balance. From your dashboard you cash out to your Airtel, MTN or Zamtel mobile money number or to a Zambian bank account. The minimum cashout is K50. Cashouts are checked and usually sent within one working day.
How does Zanja protect donors?
Every payment is confirmed with the payment processor before it counts. Donors get an email receipt, campaigns show how the money will be used, and Zanja may ask fundraisers for proof such as a medical report or invoice before paying out.
