Ditch the Card Reader: How Small Charities Are Taking Contactless Donations for Free

Tuesday 23 June 2026
11:00 to 12:00

Card readers are expensive. Monthly subscriptions eat into your fundraising. And collecting cash at events means missing out on Gift Aid, losing valuable donor data, and facing reconciliation headaches and a trip to the bank afterwards.

In this practical session, we'll show you how small charities are using free smartphone technology to take contactless donations anywhere - at events, on street collections, at the door - with no card reader, no subscription and no hidden fees.

We'll walk you through exactly how it works, what you need to get started (spoiler: just your phone), and how it fits alongside your other fundraising. Come with questions - we'll make sure you leave ready to go.

Perfect for: small charities wanting to modernise their in-person fundraising without the cost.
