Yes, all dollar amounts mentioned on the website refer to SGD (Singapore Dollar).
For example, if a team has 3 people (Person A, B & C) and someone donates SGD 90 via the team page, then each person will receive SGD 30 (SGD 90/3). If Person A raises an additional SGD 10 on their own, their total raised amount would be SGD 40. The team's total raised amount would be SGD 90 + SGD 10 = SGD 100. If a 4th person (Person D) joins the team, any further donations received through the team will be divided by 4.
The SGD 100 raised by the individual will be added to the team's total amount raised. The person will become a new member of the team.
