Once you have created a login and completed your profile, you will be asked to type the name of your Seva Community. If you are not part of an existing Seva Community, then you can click on Create a Seva Community.

Please Note:
You will be asked for your credit card if you select a plan other than the Neighborhood plan. Note that you can try all the features of the app in a Sandbox community. Please be aware that all Sandbox communities are automatically deleted after 7 days. Please send us an email at [email protected], if your community cannot afford to pay the minimum of $15/month and/or if the Neighborhood plan is too limiting for you.

1.  Please add a pic for your Seva Community Logo as it is mandatory. If you do not have a logo, just find a photo that represents your community.

2.  You will type in the name of your Seva Community. For example, I will name my Seva Community, Sampletown, or something like that.

3.  You will then elaborate on what the purpose of your Seva Community is. This does not have to be super detailed as you can always come back to your Seva profile and re-edit it later. Just right in something that will excite your community members to join.

4.  Only check the Restricted Seva Community box, if you are a political campaign or you are a nonprofit that disables user-to-user transactions. Meaning, volunteers can volunteer for you and receive Seva credits, but they will have to redeem their Seva credits in a different non-restricted Seva Community.

5.  Select the address on the map, where your physical meetings will take place. Otherwise, it defaults to your current location.

6.  You will then add your billing details.

7.  Choose the plan that is right for you. The Neighborhood Plan is the free default plan and is best when you are just starting and do not have many members, eg. less than 25. The Community Plan is best for smaller communities, Community Plus is best for larger communities, and the Nonprofit Plan is if you are already a registered nonprofit or have multiple branches associated with your nonprofit. For example, Catholic Charities may have regional branches and finally, the Enterprise Plan is for Corporations that want this as a benefit for their employees. Once you select your plan, you are now set!
