2X Matching contributions

🔥 Matching allows contributions to be doubled by a sponsor, increasing the impact of every donation.

Matching is powered by sponsors that creators bring to their project. As a creator, you can secure a sponsor who commits funds to match contributions and boost your campaign.

This creates a powerful dynamic:

  • Sponsors amplify impact

  • Creators raise funds faster

  • Contributors get more value from every sat

How it works

A sponsor commits a budget to match contributions on your project.

When someone contributes:

  • Their contribution is marked as matched

  • The total impact is doubled (2x)

  • Matching continues until the sponsor’s budget is fully allocated

{% hint style="info" %} Matching funds are not automatically distributed. Sponsors are responsible for sending the matched funds manually at a later stage. {% endhint %}

You’ll see a “2x matching” label on the project while it’s active.

For contributors

When you support a project with active matching:

  • Your contribution is counted as 2x impact

  • A sponsor has committed to match your contribution

  • This helps accelerate the project’s funding

Example: You contribute 10,000 sats → Sponsor commits to match 10,000 sats → Project reaches 20,000 sats in impact
