Welcome to UbuGive

What is UbuGive?

UbuGive is a registered nonprofit that lets people give to you instantly using a QR code and lanyard—no cash needed.
Donors simply scan your unique QR code with their phone and send support directly to your UbuGive account.

How It Works

1. Get Your Lanyard & QR Code

• You’ll receive a lanyard with a unique QR code, either from a community ambassador, charity partner, or at a special event.

• Your QR code is like your digital address for donations—no one else can use it to withdraw your funds.

2. Activate Your QR Code

• Follow the simple instructions

• You only need to give basic details: your name, a photo (if possible), and a mobile number (if you have one).

• An ambassador or staff member can help you if you need assistance.

3. Start Receiving Support

• Donors can scan your QR anytime and send you support, even if you don’t have a bank account yet.

4. Access Your Funds

• Withdraw your donations safely to your bank account

• Need to update details?

• Our support team or community ambassadors can help.

Step 1

Get a lanyard/QR code from an ambassador, charity, or event.

Step 2

Scan the QR code, or follow the instructions to sign up via UbuGive App.

Step 3

Fill in your details (with help if needed).

Step 4

Wait for a confirmation message—then you’re ready to receive support!

How to Sign Up

If you don’t have a phone or need help, an ambassador can assist you in person.
