We at Ketto give utmost importance to safety. We always strive to make the fundraising process seamless, positive and most importantly secure. We never let authenticity and transparency take a back seat.
Will I get the money I raised from my campaign?
Will my donation actually reach the cause?
Will my money get lost in the cyberspace?
It's your hard-earned money, of course, you have questions. Don't you worry; we're here to answer them!
The NGOs/charity partners that team up with us go through a verification process that requires them to submit valid documents. Each NGO is verified before their account is activated on Ketto.
Similarly, for personal causes or individuals who are raising funds for personal needs, our team does a KYC of the individual before starting the campaign and try too approve only the genuine ones.
Ketto does not encourage donation pages that attempt to avoid the prescribed donation method i.e., posting direct links to alternative payment methods. We direct people to the large ‘Contribute Now' button found on each Ketto donation page.
Please report any pages that request direct payments or users who attempt to contact you to arrange an alternative method of payment.
Do not reveal your personal information like contact number, address details to anyone who requests for it using the ‘Message' feature on your Ketto page. We never contact users through this method. You can share your email address if need be. Additionally, exercise caution if you receive offers from 3rd-party fundraising companies or individuals offering personal assistance.
NEVER arrange to personally meet anyone who contacts you through your Ketto page.
Report any suspicious activity directly to us.

Our secure-server software encrypts all your personal information like name, number, email and address. The encryption process takes the characters you enter and converts them into bits of code that are then securely transmitted over the internet to the payment gateways.
How do I know the campaigner is authentic?
No matter how much we monitor and control, there’s no way to be 100% sure that a Ketto campaign page contains accurate or truthful information. Donors should make a payment only if they personally know and trust the campaigner and his/her cause. Ideally, donors should not contribute to any campaigns unless they fully understand and trust the cause presented.
Umm, I have questions about the campaign. Who do I ask?
We believe in complete transparency. If you have absolutely any concerns about the campaign, you can shoot questions, give suggestions, and directly get in touch with the campaign owner via email or comments. If you have any doubts on the authenticity of the campaign we recommend that you don’t contribute to such a campaign
What if you send my information to random parties?
All the information you submit while making a donation is for safety and security purposes. We prevent unauthorized access. So don’t worry about your information being circulated.
What if my donation never makes it its true beneficiary?
With Ketto, the money you donate goes to the bank account associated with the fundraiser's campaign once the campaigner request to withdraw the funds. There’s no meddling. We assure you!
Why do you not provide the beneficiary direct contact no?
You can get in touch with the an individual directly using the contact us button, the beneficiary if interested can also list their no on the campaign page if they wish too, due to privacy concerns and privacy law we cannot directly share phone nos of any user on the Ketto platform. Also one of the major reasons why users dont directly share their contact nos is a high no of spam calls and messages they get when their campaign is running.
I have more questions!
If you have any concerns apart from these, we’re just an email away. Write to info@ketto.org
