A team must have at least 2 members to qualify for team achievements, with a maximum of 10 members per team. You do not need to complete your activities together to be ranked as a team or unlock team achievements.
Team leaders can update the team's profile picture, message, and manage members, including the option to remove team members before the event starts.
Donors are eligible for a tax deduction of up to 250% for donations of SGD 50 and above per transaction.
Friends and members of the public can donate via your individual or team profile page without logging in. The funds go directly to the event organiser through a payment gateway, such as Stripe. Togoparts.com does not hold any funds in escrow.
For example, if a team has 3 people (Person A, B & C) and someone donates SGD 90 via the team page, then each person will receive SGD 30 (SGD 90/3). If Person A raises an additional SGD 10 on their own, their total raised amount would be SGD 40. The team's total raised amount would be SGD 90 + SGD 10 = SGD 100. If a 4th person (Person D) joins the team, any further donations received through the team will be divided by 4.
The SGD 100 raised by the individual will be added to the team's total amount raised. The person will become a new member of the team.
