Nobody carries
cash. Take
donations anyway.

Collection tins stopped working when people stopped carrying coins. A contactless donation point at a fixed amount is the modern equivalent, and it takes about a minute to set up.

Live within the week

Services, durations, prices and staff loaded in — usually an afternoon's work. You take bookings the same week.

Keep your diary and your clients

Coming off Fresha, Treatwell or paper? We migrate the client list and forward bookings so nothing drops.

Your rules, enforced automatically

Deposits, cancellation windows and no-show fees set the way you want — so the system has the awkward conversation, not you.

What it does

Give people a
way to give.

Contactless donation points

Fixed-amount tap points at events, in receptions and at collection sites. One tap, one donation, no fumbling for change.

Event ticketing

Sell tickets for fundraisers, dinners and open days up front, so you know your numbers before catering does.

Regular giving

Recurring donations charged automatically to a card on file — the difference between a one-off and an income stream.

Charity shop takings

Full retail till for shops, with stock if you need it and simple reporting for the trustees.

Memberships and subscriptions

Membership schemes billed automatically with renewal handled without a volunteer chasing anyone.

Reporting trustees can read

Income by source, event and site. Straightforward numbers for board packs and annual reports.

A day on the job

From tin
to tap.

Cash donations fall every year. The organisations that adapt keep their income.

01

Set up — a tap point in minutes

A Reader or Terminal set to a fixed donation amount. Put it on the desk, at the door, or on a stand at an event.

02

At events — payment isn't the barrier

Tickets, raffle, bar and donations all handled on the same kit, so nobody's turned away for having no cash.

03

Regular giving — set and forget

Supporters set up a monthly donation once and it collects itself. Predictable income instead of campaign spikes.

04

Reporting — clean for the board

Income by source and site, exportable, without a volunteer rebuilding it in a spreadsheet.

Questions

The ones we get asked.

Are there charity rates on processing?

We quote your rate individually rather than applying a standard published one, and can go well below it on volume. Some providers advertise charity rates, and we'll tell you honestly if another option would genuinely cost you less.

Can we take Gift Aid?

Square doesn't handle Gift Aid declarations itself. You'd collect those separately, and we'll be straight with you about that rather than implying it's built in.

Can we set a fixed donation amount?

Yes — a preset amount for one-tap giving, which converts far better than asking people to enter a number.

Can we use it at multiple sites and events?

Yes, with reporting by location and event so you can see which activity actually raises money.

money you've
already earned.
