Where Your Money Goes

We believe you deserve to know exactly where every cent of your donation ends up. Here's the full breakdown:

~92%
To the Shelter

Goes directly to the shelter you choose, funding food, vet care, and shelter operations.

5%
Platform Fee

Keeps Animly running — verification, support, development, and server costs.

~3%
Payment Processing

Stripe securely handles your payment. This is their standard processing fee (2.9% + $0.30).

The exact breakdown is shown at checkout before you confirm any purchase. 1 coin = 1 cent — what you see is what the shelter gets.

Your purchase is a donation to the Animly platform. Coins are donation credits — they let you direct your support to specific shelters and animals. Any undirected coins are donated to the Emergency Pot to help shelters facing urgent needs.
