What is {listing}?

Pennies is a UK-based charity that facilitates micro-donations through digital platforms, allowing consumers to easily donate small amounts to charities as part of their everyday transactions. By partnering with retailers, payment providers, and charities, Pennies supports the integration of donation options into payment processes, enabling customers to add a few pence to their purchases when paying by card, digital wallet, or in-app.

This initiative not only offers a simple and private way for individuals to contribute to charitable causes but also helps businesses demonstrate social responsibility and enhance their brand image. 100% of the funds raised through Pennies go directly to the supported charities.

As a leader in digital micro-donations, Pennies aims to make giving a routine part of daily life, fostering a sustainable stream of funding for charities while leveraging technology to maximize community impact.

What makes {listing} different than competitors?

Pennies distinguishes itself by offering a seamless, anonymous micro-donation solution integrated directly into the payment process of everyday transactions. Unlike other eCommerce tools that may focus solely on profit, Pennies prioritizes charitable giving, ensuring that 100% of the donations reach the designated charities.

Its approach is designed to be frictionless for both businesses and consumers, encouraging spontaneous generosity without the need for personal data exchange. By partnering with a wide range of retailers and payment platforms, Pennies enables a broad reach, making it easy for consumers to contribute small amounts regularly, thereby creating a significant cumulative impact on various charitable causes.

What metrics is {listing} going to improve for my eCommerce store?

Pennies can enhance key eCommerce metrics such as customer engagement and brand loyalty by integrating charitable giving into transactions. It encourages repeat business through positive brand association and increases conversion rates by providing a seamless, value-added checkout experience, where small donations contribute to a broader social impact.

Who has to manage {listing} and how long does it take to setup?

Who in a Team Would Use Pennies:

Marketing and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) teams would utilize Pennies to enhance brand image and align with social impact goals. Additionally, IT and eCommerce managers would be involved in integrating the tool within the payment systems, ensuring a smooth user experience during transactions.

Project Size for Setup:

Setting up Pennies is typically a medium-scale project, requiring collaboration between IT, finance, and operations teams. The integration process involves technical adjustments to existing payment systems and may require some time for testing and optimization. However, the charity offers support to streamline implementation, making it manageable for most businesses.

Is {listing} right for my store?

Pennies is ideal for businesses that handle a high volume of transactions, such as retailers, restaurants, and online platforms, where integrating micro-donations can significantly contribute to charitable causes. It's particularly beneficial for businesses with a strong commitment to corporate social responsibility and those seeking to enhance customer engagement through positive social impact.

However, Pennies might not be suitable for very small businesses or those with low transaction volumes, where the setup costs and integration efforts might not justify the potential benefits. Additionally, businesses that do not use digital payment systems or prioritize other forms of social responsibility might find Pennies less applicable.
