Manage your Pennies Integration

Pennies 11 years with 125 million micro- donations, is an award-winning FinTech charity with an important mission: to protect and grow micro-donations, ensuring people have digital ways to keep donating the small amount of money that are so vital.

Making giving simple with micro-donations | Pennies 

Pennies’ ‘digital charity box’ is an upgrade of the traditional charity collection tin, designed to fit with our increasingly cashless lifestyles. It gives people the opportunity to donate a few pence to charity when paying by card or digital wallet with the press of a button.

Just some of the businesses offering Pennies include Domino’s Pizza, Travelodge, Poundland, Zizzi, The Entertainer, Oasis Fashions, Boots Opticians, Evans Cycles, Whitbread and Greene King.

Charities that have benefited so far include Age UK, Breast Cancer Care, CLIC Sargent, Macmillan Cancer Support, Make-A-Wish UK, many more including local and regional organisations supporting their communities. :clap:

 

If you would be interested in integrating with Pennies, please email our support team (support@QikServe.com) and they will have a member of the sales team get in touch.
