Happy Pot

Happy Pot is a Swiss online fundraising platform designed to make collective giving simple, transparent, and emotionally resonant. It allows users to create personalized cagnottes for life events, emergencies, community causes, or shared expenses, offering an intuitive interface that lowers the barrier to starting or supporting a fundraiser. The platform has become a trusted space for solidarity in Switzerland, hosting hundreds of public and private collections that help individuals and communities mobilize support quickly.

At the heart of Happy Pot’s model is a step‑by‑step creation process that guides users from choosing a category—such as anniversaries, associations, emergencies, or entrepreneurial projects—to customizing their story with images, goals, and privacy settings. Contributors can donate using bank cards, Twint, or bank transfers, while organizers track progress and adjust details in real time. This flexibility has made Happy Pot a go‑to tool for both intimate family moments and large‑scale community mobilizations.

Happy Pot also serves as a public window into Swiss solidarity movements, showcasing cagnottes that respond to tragedies, medical needs, social causes, and international humanitarian efforts. From supporting families after fires in Crans‑Montana to backing global flotilla initiatives, the platform reflects a culture of collective care and rapid civic response. By combining ease of use with emotional storytelling, Happy Pot has positioned itself as a modern digital commons for generosity in Switzerland.
