> This is the Markdown of a Backed Help Centre page, https://admin.backed.giving/help/news/2026/2026-11-08-rounds-backed-members.md. Every page is listed at https://admin.backed.giving/help/llms.txt.

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.
