How to set up a JustGiving page

Raising money online couldn't be simpler. If you choose JustGiving as the online platform to fundraise for Cancer Research UK, we have created a guide to help you set up your page.

Why use JustGiving

  • It’s easy to set up and manage. Your friends and family can sponsor you from anywhere at any time and you don’t need to spend time collecting money.

  • You can use it as well as regular donation forms, giving friends and family two ways to support you.

  • If you are a UK taxpayer, JustGiving will automatically reclaim at least 25% in Gift Aid on your donation at no additional cost to you.

How does JustGiving work

About JustGiving

When you set up a JustGiving fundraising page you can then share the link with your friends and family so they can sponsor you in a matter of minutes.

Donations and payments

JustGiving handles the payment processing and security. For UK charities, JustGiving transfers the funds to the chosen charity weekly, or monthly if the total is below a certain amount.

Make the most of your JustGiving page

Our top tips:

  • Make your page as interesting as possible by adding photos and videos and letting everyone know why you’re raising money for cancer research.

  • Share your page across social media and send a link to your friends and family. More and more donations are being made via social media so be sure to share a link to your page.

  • Let people know that their donation will make a real difference to our research. We are funded entirely by the public and their money can help save lives.

  • Allow your supporters to donate by text using JustTextGiving. Texts are free and 100% of the donation, plus Gift Aid, goes to charity.

  • Use the JustGiving app on your iPhone or Android to update your page.
