DONATE™ is proud to announce that it has raised over £500,000 for good causes through its unique mobile giving facility.

A Milestone for Digital Giving

This milestone reflects the growing adoption of digital fundraising across the UK charitable sector. With charges from just 2.5%, DONATE™ is one of the lowest-cost routes for charities to fundraise - and as fewer people carry cash day to day, mobile giving is rapidly becoming the preferred channel for many supporters.

About DONATE™

DONATE™ simplifies the fundraising process for organisations through a suite of simple tools and data capture designed to maximise fundraising campaigns.

The platform provides:

  • Text giving - supporters donate by text, charged to their phone bill
  • Web and mobile donations - online giving for any amount
  • Contactless giving - via tap+DONATE™ boxes at events and venues
  • Gift Aid collection - included as standard across all channels
  • Real-time reporting - giving campaign managers instant visibility of results

The Road Ahead

£500,000 is a significant milestone - but it is just the beginning. As more charities adopt digital fundraising and more supporters become comfortable giving by text and contactless, the potential for growth is substantial.

DONATE™ is committed to remaining the most accessible, most affordable, and most effective digital giving platform for UK charities. If your organisation has not yet explored what DONATE™ can do for your fundraising, now is the time to find out.
