Charitx
Read full descriptionHide full description
CharitX is a platform that allows users to discover, engage with, and participate in social challenges promoted in support of pre-verified charitable organizations. Users can explore charitable initiatives, learn more about the supported organizations, follow challenge activities, and interact with related content. CharitX is not a charitable organization and does not solicit, receive, process, or manage donations or contributions of any kind. The app does not offer in-app purchases, donation functionality, payment processing, or any mechanism to collect funds within the iOS app. If users choose to support a charitable initiative, they may be redirected to an external website opened in their device’s browser, where any optional contribution is completed independently and entirely outside the app.
