Facilipay for Charities

Take card donations on payment terminals in person, in self-service kiosk mode and through shareable donation pay-by-link — all from one Donations app.

Donations made simple — in person, at a kiosk or by link

Cash giving keeps declining, but supporters still want to give in the moment — at an event, in your foyer, after a service or when an appeal lands in their inbox. Facilipay's Donations app makes that easy. Volunteers can take a tap-to-donate on a smart terminal, an unattended kiosk in the lobby can collect donations 24/7, and a shareable donation link lets supporters give from a single tap on their phone. Every donation, from every channel, flows into one place.

Capture more donations on the spot

Take card and contactless donations the moment supporters want to give — no fumbling for cash, no app downloads, no friction.

One donations app, every channel

The same Facilipay Donations app powers in-person terminals, unattended kiosks and shareable donation links from one place.

Built for charities, not retailers

Suggested amounts, gift-aid style prompts, branded receipts and clear donation reporting — designed for fundraising teams, not tills.

How charities take donations with Facilipay

Donations App on Payment Terminals

Install the Facilipay Donations app on your payment terminals and turn every device into a portable fundraising tool. Volunteers and staff can prompt for a donation in seconds at events, in-store, at the church door, after a service or anywhere supporters are ready to give.

  • Tap-to-donate on smart terminals
  • Suggested giving amounts
  • Branded on-screen and printed receipts

Self-Service Donation Kiosks (with Gift Aid)

Run the Donations app in unattended kiosk mode and place a giving point exactly where footfall is — in the foyer, at the back of the room, beside an exhibit or at a community event. Merchants configure one or more predefined donation amounts that supporters tap to donate in seconds. The kiosk is fully Gift Aid compatible: donors can register the donation against their name and address on-screen so your charity can claim Gift Aid on every eligible gift.

  • Predefined donation amounts — tap to donate
  • Gift Aid compatible with on-screen donor capture
  • Unattended, 24/7 giving with no staff needed

Donation Pay-by-Link

Send a donation link by SMS, email, WhatsApp or social post. Supporters tap the link, choose an amount and pay with card, Apple Pay or Google Pay — no donation form to build, no plugin to install, no website redesign required.

  • Shareable donation links
  • Card, Apple Pay & Google Pay
  • Perfect for campaigns and appeals

  • One configuration, every channel
  • Multi-cause and multi-campaign support
  • Centralised donation management

  • Average gift and conversion tracking
  • Exportable data for your finance team

Built around how charities actually fundraise

Events and collections

Hand volunteers a Facilipay terminal at a fundraising event, gala or street collection so no donor walks away because they didn't have cash.

Foyers, lobbies and venues

Place a self-service donation kiosk in a high-footfall area so supporters can give on their way in or out — completely unattended.

Appeals and campaigns

Share a donation pay-by-link with your supporter database, on social or in a printed mailer to drive donations to a specific campaign or appeal.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions
Can charities take card donations on a payment terminal?
Yes. The Facilipay Donations app runs on smart payment terminals, so charities can prompt for a donation amount and accept card, contactless and mobile wallet payments anywhere a terminal can be carried.
Can the same terminal be used in self-service kiosk mode?
Yes. The Donations app can switch into kiosk mode so a terminal becomes an unattended donation point. Merchants set one or more predefined donation amounts that supporters tap to donate, and the kiosk completes the gift without any staff present.
Is the Facilipay donations kiosk Gift Aid compatible?
Yes. The self-service donations flow is fully Gift Aid compatible. Donors can register their donation against their name and address directly on the kiosk screen, so your charity can claim Gift Aid on every eligible gift and report on it from the same dashboard.
Can charities send donation links?
Yes. Facilipay lets you generate donation pay-by-links that can be sent by SMS, email, WhatsApp or shared on social. Donors tap the link, pick an amount and pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay — no website integration needed.
Do donations from terminals, kiosks and links all come together?
Yes. All giving channels flow into the same Facilipay Donations app, so charities have one place to manage suggested amounts, branding, campaigns and reporting across every donation route.
Can we run multiple campaigns or causes at once?
Yes. Charities can run multiple causes or campaigns side by side and tag each donation against the right one, so you can see exactly which appeal, event or location drove which donations.
Can supporters get a receipt for their donation?
Yes. Branded receipts can be printed on the terminal, shown on the kiosk screen or emailed to the donor — useful for the donor's records and for charities that need to evidence donations.
Does Facilipay provide reporting for charities?
Yes. Charities get reporting on donations by channel, campaign and location, average gift size, donor conversion on pay-by-link and exportable data for the finance and fundraising team.
