Feature · Charge on fail

Your stake is never charged if you succeed.

The stake is authorized when you commit. It moves only after a verified failure. Success releases it.

Service fees are disclosed and charged separately from the stake.

No custody

Authorization is not a stake charge

When you create a commitment, the payment provider authorizes the stake on your card. On the Line does not hold it in an account or shared pot. The small base service fee is a separate charge at commit.

  1. Set the terms. Pick a structured goal, a stake, and a pre-declared charity.
  2. Authorize the stake. The card provider confirms the stake is available; On the Line does not take custody of it.
  3. Submit proof. Evidence is checked against criteria fixed before the commitment started.
  4. Settle. Success releases the stake. Verified failure charges it and routes 100% to the chosen charity.

A delay cannot become your failure

Review runs against a published moderation window. If On the Line misses that window, the proof auto-passes. A successful, auto-passed, cancelled, or voided commitment cannot trigger the stake charge.

On success

The full stake authorization is released. A separate success fee applies; no amount is taken from the stake.

On verified failure

The full stake is charged and sent to the pre-declared charity. No success fee applies. On the Line keeps none of the stake.

Every outcome leaves evidence

The Glass Receipt records the authorization, verification result, separate fees, and final destination. Financial state is never reduced to an ambiguous “done.”
