CHARITY
A quarter of placement/revenue goes out
SpotMyMap is a visibility map first. Charity is not a side note - it is baked into the model. When real money flows, a fixed slice of completed placement revenue leaves with it. Until paid placements complete, this page is the promise - not a donation receipt.
OF PLACEMENT REVENUE → CHARITY
Charity = 25% of completed placement revenue excluding VAT, refunds, chargebacks, and payment-processing fees. Hosting, opex, and salary are not deducted before that 25%. After fees, before opex - that order does not change.
How it/works
- You claim a spot on the map. That is a visibility placement, not a donation receipt.
- When paid checkout is live, 25% of completed placement revenue (after VAT, refunds, chargebacks, and payment fees only - before hosting, opex, and salary) goes to causes the community helps pick.
- Causes are chosen in the open. Totals will be published here once real placements begin - no mystery jar, and no fake "already donated" counters in demo.
Picking/causes
Each month the map can run a public poll. You pick up to three causes. When the goal locks, the winning direction gets the next charity slice. You can also float a new idea from the feedback strip on the home page.
- WWF / wildlife & nature
- UNICEF / children
- Médecins Sans Frontières
- Local food banks
- Open education access
Honest/limits
A placement is not a tax-deductible donation. SpotMyMap is not itself a charity. Transfers follow the 25% rule only after paid placements complete.
