Rounds lets people and organisations on Backed in without a wait - Product News

Anyone with a Backed account joins Rounds at once, with no access request to wait on, and can give an organisation they act for on a grant maker's portal its own Rounds page.

Rounds is the community app, separate from Backed's grant management, so this has no Help Centre article.

What's new

  • Join Rounds at once. If you have a Backed account, Rounds now says Join Rounds where it used to say Request access. Agree to Rounds' terms and privacy policy and you are a member straight away, with no request for our team to approve. If you already sent a request, it is approved when you confirm your email address.
  • Your organisations on Backed. After you join, and at the top of Organisations, Rounds lists the organisations you act for on a grant maker's Backed portal, with the grant maker each one is registered with. Create this organisation's Rounds page gives one a page with you as its owner. Only the organisation's name is copied. Nothing else from its registration reaches Rounds.
  • One page per organisation. If the organisation already has a page on Rounds, Rounds links to it rather than making a second one, even when the organisation is registered with several grant makers. If another organisation of the same name is on Rounds, Rounds names it, and you can still make a page if yours is a different organisation.
  • Verified later. A page made this way starts unverified. Claim it in the usual way to verify it and post as it.
