The fine print
- Where does my money actually go?
- If you tag a surfer, your donation is allocated to that surfer's fund and counts toward their campaign. USC takes no admin fee — only PayFast's standard payment-processing fee is deducted.
- Can I get a Section 18A tax receipt?
- If USC is registered as a Public Benefit Organisation with SARS, yes. NPO/PBO status is pending — this page will be updated once it is confirmed. We cannot issue Section 18A tax receipts until then.
- Can I get a refund?
- Donations support a named surfer and are generally non-refundable. If something went wrong with your donation, email hello@umzumbesurfclub.com and we'll help sort it out.
- What if a campaign over-funds?
- Funds raised beyond the goal stay in the named surfer's general fund (next contest, replacement gear). Never pooled to USC's general account without the surfer/guardian's written agreement.
- Is the donation form secure?
- PayFast handles all card data — USC never sees your card number. The form is POPIA-compliant and operates over HTTPS only.
