Transfer fees reflect the cost to the
GivenGain Foundation of sending the money through the banking system
to an organization's account. GivenGain collects all transaction
fees, charge-backs, refunds, and other amounts by subtracting the
amount the organization owes GivenGain from the funds that GivenGain
has received from the donor for payment to the organization, and
initiates a transfer once the total amount is more than the minimum
amount as determined by the organization. Transfers are initiated on
the 10th and 25th of every month.
