Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about donating, tracking, and partnering with GoodCoin & Eleos.
What is GoodCoin & Eleos?
GoodCoin & Eleos is a donation platform that lets you contribute cryptocurrency — or traditional fiat — to rigorously vetted charities. Every donation is recorded on the blockchain, producing a permanent, verifiable record of impact.
Which cryptocurrencies do you accept?
Today we support Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP. Stablecoins (USDC, USDT) and additional chains are on the roadmap. We also accept USD via credit or debit card.
How do I know my donation actually reached the charity?
When you donate, we generate a GoodCoin receipt and link it to the transaction hash on-chain. You can look up your receipt any time on the Track page to see confirmation status and the destination wallet.
Are crypto donations tax-deductible?
In the U.S., donations to 501(c)(3) organizations — which all our partners are — are generally deductible at fair-market value. You typically avoid capital gains tax on appreciated assets. Consult your tax advisor for specifics to your situation.
Does GoodCoin take a cut of my donation?
No. 100% of your donation reaches the charity. Network fees (gas, miner fees) are charged by the blockchain itself, not by us.
How are charities vetted?
Each charity must provide proof of 501(c)(3) (or international equivalent) status, recent audited financials, governance documentation, and program-outcome reports. We re-review annually and remove partners that fall below our standards.
Can my organization join the platform?
Yes — we welcome applications from registered nonprofits. Create an account on the charity portal and our partnerships team will walk you through verification.
