The Process

Simple by design. Rigorous where it matters.

01

Find a verified NGO

Browse our curated list of verified NGOs. Every organisation is manually checked — we review registration documents, 80G certificates, financial records, and on-ground activity before listing.

We never list an NGO that hasn't been personally vetted.

02

Donate directly

Choose how much you want to give. Pay via UPI, cards, or net banking — secured by Razorpay. Your donation goes straight to the NGO's account. BharatDonate never holds your money.

100% reaches the NGO. Optional tip to support the platform.

03

Receive your 80G receipt

A tax deduction certificate under Section 80G is issued automatically after every confirmed donation. Download it from your account — no paperwork, no follow-up needed.

Works for donations to any 80G-registered NGO on the platform.

04

Watch the impact

NGOs are required to share regular field updates — reels, photos, stories from the ground. You can see exactly how your donation is being used, in real time.

Follow updates from NGOs you've donated to directly in your feed.

FAQ

Common questions

Does BharatDonate take any fees?

No. 100% of your donation reaches the NGO. BharatDonate sustains itself through optional donor tips — you choose whether to add a tip at checkout.

How do I know an NGO is legitimate?

Every NGO on BharatDonate is manually verified by our team. We review registration documents, 80G certificates, FCRA status where applicable, and on-ground presence. We only list NGOs we would personally donate to.

When will I receive my 80G certificate?

Your 80G receipt is issued automatically once the payment is confirmed — typically within minutes. It's available in your account dashboard and emailed to you.

What payment methods are accepted?

UPI (PhonePe, GPay, Paytm), debit and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, RuPay), net banking, and wallets — all via Razorpay's secure payment gateway.

Can I get a refund?

Donations are generally non-refundable once the payment is confirmed and the NGO has been notified. In exceptional circumstances, please contact us within 24 hours. See our refund policy for full details.

I run an NGO. Can I join?

Yes — but we move carefully. Our vetting process takes time because we're committed to only listing organisations we can stand behind. Apply via the link below.
