Why travellers choose More to Roam
See exactly what's being funded
Route, dates and a line-by-line budget. No mystery totals, no vague ‘experiences fund'. You'll know where every pound is going.
Encourage planning skills
Your child builds the itinerary, sets a realistic budget and writes their own pitch. It's part fundraiser, part life-admin masterclass.
A modern gift for godparents
Grandparents, aunts, uncles and family friends often want to give something meaningful for an 18th or 21st. Now they can.
Live in under 10 minutes
Three simple steps between you and your first contribution.
- 1
Set up together
Under-18s can use More to Roam with a parent as the account owner and Stripe payee. Signup walks you through it.
- 2
Build the trip
Your child adds destinations, dates and a story. You can review the budget before it goes live.
- 3
Share with the family
A tasteful, private link the whole family can back — no group chats begging for money.
“We were going to gift our daughter a lump sum for her gap year. Instead we launched a page — and the wider family contributed £1,900 we didn't have to. She felt truly supported.”
Questions, answered
- Can my child use this if they're under 18?
- Yes. A parent or guardian owns the account and the Stripe payout account, so funds land in your bank. Your child manages the trip page under your supervision.
- Can I keep the page private?
- Yes — pages can be shared only via a private link. Nothing is posted publicly unless you choose to.
- Where does the money actually go?
- Straight to the bank account you connect. Not a wallet, not a gift card, not held by us until the trip ends.
Give them the gap year. Let the family help.
Set up your child's trip page in 10 minutes — free, transparent, and built for families.
