Can I create a new project or fundraiser on Geyser?

No. Geyser no longer offers self-service creation of standard projects, Open Fundraisers or All-or-Nothing campaigns. New campaigns are currently limited to approved Circular Grants prepared with an approved Field Partner and reviewed by Geyser.

What is a Circular Grant?

A Circular Grant gives an approved local entrepreneur or small business capital without creating debt. If and when the recipient is able, they may voluntarily forward money into their community’s Community Fund so that another entrepreneur can receive support. This is a pledge—not a repayment obligation. There is no balance, required payment schedule, interest or penalty.

Who can create a Circular Grant?

Circular Grants are not available for self-service creation. An approved Field Partner can work with Geyser to propose and verify a beneficiary, prepare the campaign and provide local support. Geyser makes the final approval decision.

How can I become a Field Partner?

The pathway includes an application, initial review, interview, verification and approval, followed by onboarding. Apply to become a Field Partner Applying—or being identified as a potential partner—does not guarantee approval, campaign acceptance or funding.

Why is access limited?

Geyser is deliberately scaling the programme according to credible local demand, available grant and operating funding, Field Partner capacity, and our ability to verify and support each campaign safely.

Can I still contribute on Geyser?

Yes. You can support active, approved campaigns shown on Geyser. The available payment methods and campaign terms are displayed on each campaign page.

I already have a Geyser project. What should I do?

Existing creators can use the support guidance for direct payment options, wallet recovery and other account questions. The retirement of new project creation does not remove the support information for existing projects.

How do I request a refund?
