Creating a fundraising page on givestar takes just a few minutes. You can raise for up to four charities at once, set a target, and customise your page before sharing it with friends and family.

Step by step — on givestar.io

1. Log in to your givestar account

Go to givestar.io and sign in. If you don't have an account yet, you can create one for free in under a minute.

2. Go to Your Fundraising

From your profile or homepage, click Your Fundraising then click Create New.

3. Name your page and add a description

Give your page a clear name and write a short description explaining why you're fundraising and why it matters. A personal, heartfelt description makes a real difference to how much you raise.

4. Set your fundraising target and currency

Choose a realistic but ambitious target. You can update this at any time after your page goes live.

5. Choose your charity or charities

Search for and select up to four charities you'd like to fundraise for. If you select more than one, givestar's Split Donate feature divides donations between them automatically.

6. Upload a banner image

Add a banner image to make your page stand out. Recommended size is 820 × 312px. Use a photo that reflects your fundraising story.

7. Add a voucher or promo code

If you have a givestar voucher or promo code, add it here. If not, skip this step.

8. Choose your privacy setting

Public pages appear in givestar search results. Private pages don't appear in search but can still be accessed by anyone with the link — useful if you want to share with a specific group only.
