# Collective to Collective

## Within the same Fiscal Host

If you have a Collective with funds in its balance, you may use that as a payment method when contributing to another Collective within the same [Fiscal Host](/help/fiscal-hosts/fiscal-hosts.md). There are no fees for this payment method. Simply make a contribution to the payee Collective and select the payer Collective as your payment method during checkout.

## Across different Fiscal Hosts

We are working on the functionality to enable Collectives to give directly to Collectives in a different host (see [#3190](https://github.com/opencollective/opencollective/issues/3190)). As a workaround for now, use the following process:

1. Contact the Fiscal Host of the payee Collective and ask them to submit an expense to the payer Collective for your donation
2. The payer Collective will approve the expense and its Fiscal Host will pay the Fiscal Host of the payee Collective.
3. The payee Fiscal Host will then allocate the money to the payee Collective manually using '[add funds](/help/fiscal-hosts/receiving-money/add-funds-manually.md)'.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.opencollective.com/help/financial-contributors/collective-to-collective.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
