Give locally or from abroad
Campaign currencies offered: CDF, USD. Mobile money networks to check: Airtel Money, Orange Money, and Vodacom M-Pesa.
Check the campaign’s location, named recipient and currency before giving. You can support from another country if a suitable payment method is available. The form shows the applicable payment options and limits.
In DR Congo, choose CDF or USD to match the receiving wallet. Do not assume a wallet accepts both; check the target and payment currency.
From donation to withdrawal
- Mobile money
- Confirmed donations are credited before withdrawal fees. Collection costs are included in the withdrawal deduction. The donor’s operator may also charge a sending fee: check the total on your phone before entering your PIN.
- Cards and overseas donations
- When card payments are available, Stripe Checkout shows eligible methods and currencies. Actual processing fees are deducted before campaign credit. Conversion can change the credit; the estimate excludes later withdrawal deductions. Optional tips go to SenteMe, not the campaign.
- Withdrawals and wallet charges
- The standard deduction is 7.5%. Provider costs and rounding can increase it. The withdrawal screen shows the net payout and limits before confirmation. Cash-out or onward transfers from the wallet may cost extra.
- When are funds available?
- Payment success does not mean immediate withdrawal. Card funds must settle before they become available for withdrawal. The dashboard separates raised, processing and available balances. Identity verification, reviews and provider availability can delay withdrawal; no fixed time is guaranteed.

Choose with confidence
Before you donate or fundraise in DR Congo
01
Check the beneficiary and story
Read the purpose, organizer and updates. A badge records manual campaign review; it does not guarantee the story or final use of funds. Withdrawal identity checks are separate.
02
Choose a platform that pays out locally
For a cause in DR Congo, confirm that the platform can actually deliver funds to a local wallet rather than only to a bank account abroad.
03
Follow the outcome
Return to the public campaign page for contributions, withdrawals and organizer updates instead of depending on a manually updated WhatsApp list.
Common questions
Fundraising in DR Congo
Can I start a SenteMe fundraiser in DR Congo?
DR Congo is included in SenteMe’s campaign country selection. Organisers need a supported payout wallet and must pass withdrawal identity checks. The campaign’s payment screen confirms available donor methods; country page coverage alone does not guarantee every network is available.
Which payment methods work in DR Congo?
Mobile money networks to check for DR Congo include Airtel Money, Orange Money, and Vodacom M-Pesa. Use a wallet and currency offered on the campaign’s payment screen. A donor abroad can use Card when offered; this does not require the donor to live in the organiser’s country.
How much does SenteMe cost?
Campaign creation is free. Withdrawal deductions normally start at 7.5%, with higher provider costs and rounding potentially increasing the deduction. Card processing and conversion are separate. The donor’s operator may charge a sending fee. Review the payment and withdrawal screens.
How can I check where my donation goes?
Public campaigns show a running record of contributions and withdrawals. A transfer record does not prove how funds were ultimately spent. Review the story, beneficiary, organizer updates and verification status before contributing.
