The campaign administrator collects the funds via Stripe and makes the tranfer/donation to the charity. Connecting an existing Stripe account or creating a new one is part the Crowdfunding campaign set up on GalaBid. And, as part of the Stripe account set up a bank account is connected. This is where the funds collected by the campaign will be sent. See stripe.com for information and the latest pricing.

The proceeds are distributed to the campaign administrator's bank account by Stripe. The first payout can take up to 7 days. The frequency of subsequent payouts can be edited from within the Stripe dashboard. For specific questions about Stripe accounts please contact Stripe's support team. More information here.
