❤️ From Collection Day to Contactless Giving
Yesterday, Special Olympics Ireland held its Collection Day across Northern Ireland, following its Republic of Ireland collection the previous week. It is the organisation’s largest community fundraiser of the year, operating across more than 115 locations. This year’s campaign combined traditional collections with online fundraising and contactless giving.
It shows just how much fundraising has changed.
If you’ve seen campaigns like this and thought:
“We’d love to accept contactless donations, but we wouldn’t know where to start.”
That’s exactly where Tap2Donate can help.
Whether you’re a charity, church, sports club, community organisation, event organiser or business supporting a good cause, we can help you create a simple way for people to give.
With Tap2Donate you can benefit from:
💳 Contactless giving with cards and digital wallets
📍 Dedicated physical donation points that stay visible in your location
💶 Preset donation amounts plus the option for another amount
📊 Reporting and visibility over donations collected
🎨 Customised units to reflect your organisation or campaign
🏢 Permanent or event-based solutions depending on how you fundraise
🤝 Support getting set up, rather than having to figure everything out yourself
A donation point could work in a church, hotel reception, charity shop, clubhouse, visitor attraction, café, office reception or at an event.
The important thing is making giving easy at the moment somebody feels inspired to support you.
❤️ The Power to Give, in the Right Place.
If your organisation would like to start accepting contactless donations, or you’re simply not sure what setup would suit you, talk to us.
