Outcomes

Who is the gift fund for?

Contribution amount

Contributions start at $20 — guests can give more if they want.

Gift fund goal (optional)

Set a target and the pool page shows a progress ring as contributions come in.

Contributors pay Stripe's processing fee (2.9% + 30¢) and Poolsy's 2.5% fee on top of their contribution, so every dollar of the gift fund reaches the recipient. Contributions are gifts to the designated recipient; predictions are for entertainment among invited participants.
