P.S. the profits will be donated to a charity organization
3 comments

If I can kindly suggest, pick the charity and put “all proceeds will go to ___” on the page. It might save you some headaches later. Best of luck!
Or allow a selection of charities as people will have different areas of interest.

Definitely put a note up, though. My first thought when seeing this was a vivid image of someone laughing all the way to the bank.

Yes I will definitely add this feature! thanks! I've tried to add more social proof possible ! even link my twitter profile. I don't want to be a scam!
Is the charity organization called "My Bank Account"? Also, what do you mean by "profits". What are the expenses? After reading about hollywood accounting, I'm always suspicious about "profit".
When exactly?

As far as I can tell this is a never-ending contest, so are you donating the proceeds to charity on a rolling basis as soon as you receive them?

And are you donating 100% to charity, or using a portion to pay for the website/server/bandwidth/development costs?
