Presently, BetterWorld is best set up for organizations located within the United States. If your organization has a U.S. bank account, you should be good to go!

Technically, it is possible to connect a bank / Stripe account from any of these countries, but we do not recommend it. Not only will transactions still occur in USD, confusing your donors, but they will incur foreign exchange fees. Additionally, the organization will also incur foreign exchange fees at the time of withdrawal. Organizations in some of these countries may have added restrictions and may take a longer time to be verified by Stripe.

If you're abroad, please reach out to us before making an account with BetterWorld. We'd love to hear from you and see how we can be helpful, presently or in the future. We're also going to be adding new currencies and countries in the near future - so stay tuned!

Note: Donors are still able to participate from anywhere in the world -- these restrictions only apply to organizations setting up accounts.
