Stop being the debt collector in your friend group. Pooled makes it simple to collect money for trips, events, gifts, and shared purchases - without the awkward texts, spreadsheets, or wondering who actually paid. **How it works:** 1. Create a pool in under a minute. Name it, set the goal, and decide the rules upfront. 2. Share the link with your group. Everyone pays their share with a card and sees it happen in real time. 3. Relax. If you hit the goal, funds are released to the organizer's verified bank account. Fall short? Everyone gets refunded automatically. **Why Pooled is different:** - Complete transparency: Everyone sees who's in and who's paid. No guessing, no black boxes. - Clear rules from the start: Know what happens if you fall short or overfund—before the first dollar comes in. - Fair outcomes: Overfunded? The extra gets split back. Underfunded? Automatic refunds for everyone. - Pay by card: Contribute with any major debit or credit card. Payments are processed by Coinflow, a PCI-compliant provider—your card details never touch Pooled's servers. - Withdraw to your bank: Organizers link a bank account via Plaid and receive funds directly. Identity is verified to keep the platform safe. **Perfect for:** - Group trips: Bachelor parties, ski weekends, beach houses. One person books, everyone pays their share upfront. - Tickets and events: Concerts, games, group dinners. Buy the tickets when they go on sale, collect money without the spreadsheet. - Group gifts: Weddings, baby showers, retirements. Pool together for something meaningful. - Shared purchases: Anything your group needs to fund together. **Key features:** - Create pools with custom funding goals and deadlines - Invite friends via shareable links - Track contributions in real time - Card payments powered by Coinflow - Bank linking and withdrawals powered by Plaid - Identity verification for organizers who receive funds - Built-in overfunding and underfunding refund rules - Private pools for invite-only groups - Secure phone number authentication We handle the money so you can focus on the experience.
