How Charity Pay works
A token's creator fees are pointed at a charity when it launches. The fees go to one Charity Pay address, that money is deposited onto a SolCard card, and the card pays the charity on its own donation page. Money is donated once the fees for a token reach $10.
01Overview
Tokens launched here are ordinary pump.fun coins on Solana: they trade on a bonding curve, then graduate to PumpSwap. The only difference is who receives the creator fees. Instead of the deployer's wallet, each coin's creator is a fee sharing account made for that one coin, which pays a single Charity Pay address. From there the money goes onto a card and is donated to the charity the launcher chose.
- 1
Launch
Anyone launches a token and picks the charity or fundraiser its creator fees are for.
- 2
Trade
Every buy and sell pays a fee. The creator's share collects in the token's own vault.
- 3
Claim
Every 5 minutes those fees are claimed automatically to the Charity Pay address and counted for that token.
- 4
Donate
When a token's fees reach $10, the money goes onto the card and is donated to its charity.
02Launching a token
Connect a Solana wallet, then fill in the launch form:
A launch costs about 0.014 SOL of account rent and network fees, paid by the wallet that signs. Connecting a wallet is all it takes: there is no account and no sign-up.
03Trading
Every token has its own page with a live price, a chart and a buy and sell ticket. Trades are made from your own wallet: you pick an amount, your wallet shows the swap, and you approve it. Charity Pay never holds your funds. Under the ticket, each page shows what the token has raised so far and how close it is to its next donation.
04Where fees go
pump.fun charges a fee on every trade and sets the creator's share itself. That share collects in a vault for this one coin, separate from every other coin's. Of what each coin's vault pays out:
Every token's creator fees are claimed to this address, which anyone can follow: 5CdfSpqYi5V8iQxLnvXFExxbQQVbvCsuiETenx6bjN6k
05When money is donated
Money is donated once the fees for a token reach $10. Each token is counted on its own: a token's page shows the amount raised and a bar filling toward its next $10. When it gets there, everything that token has raised since its last donation is queued, priced in dollars at that moment, and the bar starts again.
- 1
Building up
Fees below $10 stay counted for the token. Nothing is lost by waiting; they're donated with the next batch.
- 2
At the threshold
The whole amount is queued for the charity and moved from the address onto the card.
- 3
Donated
The donation is made by card on the charity's own page.
- 4
Receipt
It's listed on the token's page and on Donations with the amount, the charity and its receipt.
06How the donation is paid
Charities and fundraising pages take cards, not SOL. So the money is deposited onto a SolCard prepaid card, which turns it into a dollar balance, and the card pays the charity the same way any donor would. Every donation is listed on Donations.
07Charities and fundraisers
The directory lists well-known charities, each checked by a person against its own website and its registration. A launcher can also paste a link to any other charity site or fundraiser; those are marked as pasted links and are looked at before any money is sent.
