The UK’s payment technology industry has a large part to play in the fast-growing micro-donations movement with the “climate right for the payments industry to be a big player in improving lives”, say Al Lukies CBE.
40% of 2,025 UK consumers revealed they have stopped shopping at retailers they considered not to have an ethical stance, found fintech charity Pennies in a recent survey.
A partnership between fintech charity Pennies and retail technology company K3 Retail has won Best Charity Initiative at the 10th annual Emerging Payments Awards, held on 5 October 2017 in London.
Pennies and payment partner Verifone announce that their partnership has seen consumer donations double over the last 12 months.
Pennies has welcomed Dixons Carphone, Boots Opticians, Hobbycraft, Virgin Holidays and MRH GB limited to its digital customer giving movement – the latter giving many thousands of drivers the opportunity to donate when using their convenience stores and buying fuel across the UK.
