How it works

Trykl connects donors with recipients for direct, recurring money. Research-backed. No platform cut. Yours to cancel anytime.

For donors

  1. 1.

    Browse recipient profiles, grouped by need category. Filter by location or situation. Take your time.

  2. 2.

    Pick someone. Set your amount per month and an upfront multiplier. The multiplier is a lump sum the recipient receives when their compendium is complete. You set both numbers freely.

  3. 3.

    Your contract runs until you cancel. No minimum commitment. If a recipient misses a re-assessment, their contract pauses and resumes when they complete it.

  4. 4.

    Multiple contracts are fine. Stack them however you want.

For recipients

  1. 1.

    Create a profile. Describe your situation in your own words. Up to 4,000 characters. Honest and specific works better than vague.

  2. 2.

    Complete the compendium. A thorough research intake covering your situation in detail. It takes time. You can save your progress and return. When complete, your profile goes live.

  3. 3.

    Donors find you and set up contracts. Your first payment from each donor includes their upfront multiplier amount. After that, the per-period amount arrives on the agreed schedule.

  4. 4.

    Keep your assessments current. Periodic re-assessment keeps your contracts active. Miss a deadline, your contracts pause. Complete it, they resume.
