What you should know before contributing
Your payment is processed by Stripe and sent directly to the student's (or guardian's) connected Stripe account. BackThis never holds, controls, or has access to contributed funds. A 5% platform fee is deducted automatically.
You may optionally provide your name and email address. Your name and contribution amount will be displayed on the student's page unless you choose to contribute anonymously. If you provide an email, you will receive a receipt.
Contributions made through BackThis are personal gifts to individual students and are generally not tax-deductible. BackThis is not a registered charity or 501(c)(3) organization. Consult a tax professional for advice about your specific situation.
You will receive an email receipt for every contribution if you provide an email address.
Students agree to use contributions for education-related expenses as described on their page. BackThis does not guarantee or monitor how funds are ultimately used. For students under 18, a parent or guardian is responsible for managing funds.
