Trust & Transparency
No fine print. No illusions. Every euro explained.
The One Euro Journey is not a traditional charity — and we don’t pretend it is.
This is a public, transparency-first project operated by OEJ OÜ (Estonia). On this website, a €1 contribution is a purchase of a digital product (“Producer Credit”), not a tax-deductible charity donation.
The impact is delivered via milestone-based transfers to eligible animal welfare organizations, with proof published where legally and ethically appropriate.
Where your €1 goes
25% of gross sales revenue is reserved for milestone impact transfers to eligible animal welfare organizations.
- Released at milestones (not instantly)
- Eligibility verified before any transfer
- Proof/receipts published where appropriate
- Community input (public advisory poll) may be used where active
This covers the real costs required to run and scale the project transparently.
- Payment fees (Stripe / Apple Pay / Google Pay)
- Hosting, tools, and security
- Legal & accounting / compliance
- Taxes (including VAT handling where applicable)
- Content & distribution (to reach 1M people)
Why not 100% to charity?
Because “100% to charity” is often misleading. A public, transparent project has real costs. Instead of hiding expenses, we publish an honest, fixed model and document it openly.
Our standard is proof > promises:
🛡️ Proof, not hype
We don’t ask you to “believe us.” We publish verifiable evidence.
- Milestone transfer proof where appropriate
- Progress and allocation shown publicly
- Method notes (timing, settlement, reconciliation)
- What worked and what didn’t gets documented
🔒 Privacy by design
Transparency applies to us — not to exposing your private data.
- We do not sell personal data
- Public reporting is privacy-safe (aggregate totals)
- Emails are used for receipts and essential messages; marketing only with opt-in
- You can choose to appear publicly as anonymous (where listings exist)
