Charities, solidarity operators and support organisations In service with Poto

Link every contribution to how it is used, and show it.

Connect solidarity contributions to how they are used: what the contribution funds, who benefits, with which suppliers and over which period. Earmarkable digital euros are euros, held in a real account, that can only be used for what you decided. Those rules, set before the money is spent, are the earmarking. The Poto solidarity programme works this way. Every payment is recorded on a tamper-proof blockchain.

Two people put together a basket in a neighbourhood grocery shop.

You want to…

You want to connect a contribution to how it is actually used and account for it to every donor, without opening the files of the people you support.

We have the solution: an earmarked collection, spent with authorised suppliers. Each contributor sees tamper-proof evidence of every payment.

You choose who, when, how much, where and what for.

Concrete benefits

What the programme changes for your teams.

Give and collect

You provide funding, or you gather donations and fundraising pots around a defined cause.

Use within a framework

Beneficiaries, suppliers, amounts and periods are set before the spending, then applied to every payment. For example, €150.00 for groceries with an authorised trader.

Each role sees what concerns it

Each role has access to what it needs, with no blanket access to the data of the people supported.

The Poto solidarity programme runs on this model. Solidarity on its own does not sum up everything MAP can do. The evidence covers the payment, not the contents of the basket nor the delivery.

A scenario in three steps

Poto, a solidarity programme in service

The first conversation

The organisation defines the cause, the people supported and the expenditure covered.

Funding and payment

Donations, fundraising pots or the funder’s contribution fund the programme; payments are made with authorised suppliers.

Tracking and reconciliation

The authorised roles see the contributions, the payments and the matching evidence.

Who does what

Funder: A single contributor or several contributors
Decision-maker: Management of the charity or the operator
Who runs the programme: The charity, with the MAP services retained
Beneficiary: The person supported
Supplier: The suppliers opened to the programme

Roles as they would be defined in the programme, to be confirmed in the first conversation.

What you see

The authorised roles see the link between contributions, payments and the cause funded. The evidence is recorded on the blockchain.

Related services

The services retained for this need.

The availability level is stated on each service. The services retained are confirmed with your teams, in the first conversation.

Compose a programme

Fund collection Bring together funds from several funders and link every contribution to the programme it finances. Programme electronic money The earmarkable digital euro: euros, on a real account, that can only be used for what you decided. Issued, allocated, used and redeemed within the programme. Earmarking and rules of use You choose who, when, how much, where and what for. 100% of operations are checked before execution. Accounts and payments A real account, a universal payment card, a QR code and an app. Your beneficiaries pay anywhere in the world and online, within the rules you set. Traceability and blockchain proof Every payment recorded on a tamper-proof blockchain; the proof covers the payment, through to the supplier.

Terms and questions

What we settle with you.

Services, means of payment, rules and tracking are settled in the first conversation, then configured for your programme. The proof covers payments, not the results of your action.

What we establish on the record

The capabilities stated, the documents provided and the wording used are the ones MAP can establish. No client, price, lead time or result is put forward without a source.

Frequently asked questions

Can several contributions be brought together?

Yes: donations, pots and corporate giving. Each contribution is linked to the programme it finances. Every contributor then sees the payments their contribution made possible. The allocation rule, viewing rights and the handling of remaining balances are settled from the first conversation.

Do all funders see all the data?

No. Each role sees what concerns it, and nothing more. A funder follows the payments of its own programme in real time. It has access neither to beneficiaries’ personal data nor to their files.

Does the blockchain prove what was bought?

Every payment is recorded on a tamper-proof blockchain: the amount, the supplier, the date and the rule applied. Nobody can change that record afterwards, neither MAP nor the funder. The proof covers the payment. It does not say what was in the basket, nor whether the goods were delivered. No personal data is written to the chain.
