Only individuals can benefit from the UBI.
5.2. Being a valid Beneficiary, if you wish to receive the monetary amount that you are entitled to, you should inform your Valora’s account number, where the UBI designated is deposited every time you claim through the impactMarket’s App. The smart contract parameters amount per claim, frequency of claiming, total amount per beneficiary and time increment per claim are predefined when the community is created and can’t be changed after all. When you are a beneficiary, what you will receive is exactly what was defined when the community you are part of was created.
5.3. Once you become a beneficiary, you can benefit from the UBI until you claim the total amount designated to you in the community’s smart contract. After receiving the total amount, you can’t be added again as a beneficiary of any community in impactMarket’s App. The community manager has the right to remove you as a beneficiary from the community, and if so, you won’t have the right to benefit from the UBI related to the community's smart contract anymore.
