Adventure for a cause

Paste your fundraising link. Followers see it under their tap on the back, with a button to back it.

Walking, climbing, rowing or riding for something? Paste your fundraising link and the people following you can back it. They see it right under Give a tap on the back, at the moment they already care.

The money goes straight to your fundraising page. AdventureLive never touches it, and never shows a total.

Add your cause

1. In Account, find Adventure for a cause.
2. Paste your fundraising link: JustGiving, GoFundMe, GivenGain, BackaBuddy or any campaign page. We read the name and picture from the page.
3. If the page doesn’t give a name, type one in.
4. Choose Save.

You have one cause, and it’s the same on AdventureLive, Windline, RunFast and your livedot link. It shows on every trip you go live on.

Links have to start with https. Link shorteners like bit.ly aren’t allowed, because followers should always see where a button goes. Paste the page’s real address; the web address always shows under the name.

A trip for something else

Each trip has its own Adventure for a cause card, on the trip’s page. It shows your cause from Account. You can keep it, Swap for this trip, or Remove for this trip. You don’t need a cause in Account to add one to a single trip.

Add one line on why it matters to you, if you like. Followers see it under the name, in your words.

What followers see

• On your trip’s livedot page (livedot.me/you/trip): your cause under Give a tap on the back, with Support the cause and your line on why. Before you set off it says This trip is for; once you’re out, On this trip for.
• After the trip: This trip was for, with the button.
• On your livedot link: your cause from Account, whether you’re out or not.

It only shows where people can already see you. A People I approve trip shows it only to the people you approve, and your cause never appears on a share picture.

Changing or removing it

Change it any time until the trip ends. When it ends, what it was for is kept as it was, because it’s already happened.

Remove, in Account, takes your cause off straight away. Ended trips that showed it keep the name and lose the button.

If a link stops working

Links are checked slowly in the background. If one keeps failing, the button goes and the name stays. If the page comes back, so does the button.

See something wrong?

Every cause on a follow page has Report this link. A person looks at every report, and a cause that’s taken down is gone everywhere, including from ended trips.
