About GivChain
The XRPL-native giving platform where every penny is verifiable.
What is GivChain?
GivChain is a decentralised charitable giving platform built on the XRP Ledger. We connect donors directly with UK-registered charities through wallet-to-wallet transactions — no middlemen, no delays, and a platform fee of just 0.5%.
Every donation is a real, verifiable transaction on the XRP Ledger. Donors receive an NFT receipt stored on IPFS as permanent proof. UK taxpayers can add 25% to their donations through Gift Aid, with GivChain automatically generating the HMRC R68 claim for the charity.
GivChain is fully non-custodial. We never hold donor funds or private keys. Donations flow directly from the donor's wallet to the charity's wallet in 3–5 seconds.
How it works
Connect your wallet
Use Xaman, Crossmark, GemWallet, or a Ledger hardware wallet. No seed phrases are shared with GivChain.
Choose a campaign & give
Pick a cause, choose XRP or RLUSD, see the live exchange rate, and optionally add Gift Aid if you're a UK taxpayer.
Track it on-chain
One tap to sign. Your donation settles in seconds. You get an NFT receipt and a link to verify on the XRPL Explorer.
Why the XRP Ledger?
3–5 second settlement
Donations reach the charity in seconds, not days. No waiting for bank transfers or payment processor batches.
Sub-penny transaction fees
An XRPL transaction costs less than £0.001. Combined with GivChain's 0.5% platform fee, charities keep 99.5% of every donation.
Native escrow for milestones
XRPL's built-in conditional escrow lets campaigns lock funds until milestones are independently verified. Trustless accountability.
NFT receipts on IPFS
Every donor receives a non-transferable NFT as a permanent, tamper-proof donation receipt with metadata stored on IPFS.
Non-custodial by design
GivChain never holds funds or private keys. Donors sign transactions in their own wallet. The charity's XRPL address receives the payment directly.
Team
GivChain was founded by Stuart with a simple mission: prove that blockchain technology can make charitable giving more transparent, more efficient, and more trustworthy — not just for crypto-native donors, but for everyone.
