Gaming for Rainbow Trust FAQs

  • How does it work?

    To get started, decide on how your fundraising will look and get in touch so we can support you throughout your fundraising. From there you can set up your account on Tiltify, a platform designed for gamers who want to fundraise through livestreaming.

    Once you have set up your Tiltify account, you’ll be able to link your Twitch channel, allowing supporters to donate without leaving your Twitch stream.

    Any donations received through Tiltify will automatically come through to Rainbow Trust, you don’t need to do anything.

    If you get a bit stuck or want any more information you can get in touch using the form above or post on our Discord server.
