Who receives the donation?

As required by federal tax law, once a donation has been processed, it becomes the property of ZEF Global, and ZEF Global has exclusive legal control over the donated funds.  In very rare situations, ZEF Global cannot grant donated funds to the recommended charity when, for example, such charity falls out of compliance with a federal or state regulatory authority. If ZEF Global cannot grant the donation to the charity that you have recommended, ZEF Global may in its sole discretion select an alternate recipient charity or contact you for a different recommendation.

When will the charity get the donation?

If the recommended charity has signed up to receive disbursements through electronic funds transfer, then ZEF Global will disburse all donations, net of fees, typically within fifteen (15) days and no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each month in which ZEF Global has received the donation. If the recommended charity has elected to receive disbursements by check, ZEF Global will mail a check typically within fifteen (15) days and no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each month in which ZEF Global has received the donation, provided that the aggregate donations total at least $9.51, net of processing costs (the “Minimum Disbursement Amount”). ZEF Global shall have the right to update the Minimum Disbursement Amount from time to time in its sole discretion.  If the aggregate donations for the charity do not meet the Minimum Disbursement Amount, ZEF Global will hold such donations until the sum of the aggregate donations meets the Minimum Disbursement Amount.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, ZEF Global will disburse such donations to the charity, net of processing costs, at the end of every twelve (12) months, regardless of whether or not such amount is less than the Minimum Disbursement Amount.

Note that it is possible that donations made on partner websites may or may not be received by ZEF Global in the same month that your donation is made, but ZEF Global will make every attempt to receive and process donations in the earliest month possible.

Will donor information be shared?

On ZEF Global website and most partner websites, we provide you with a choice on whether or not to share your personal information with the recipient charity.  See our Privacy Policy for more information.
