For Charities and other Organisations
Unlike other online facilitators, we do not charge a membership or subscription fee. Therefore there is no initial cost to your organisation. We charge only a 5% transaction fee on gross donations, which when offset against the donation you receive and the Gift Aid you can reclaim means you still receive more than the face value of the gift. In addition, we provide you with the following:
- Your own free fundraising page
(e.g. www.zakatonline.org.uk/oxfam) for specific projects and for your charity generally - The facility to receive both regular and one-off donations to your organisation using a secure server
- Your organisation can benefit from both Zakat and projects by setting up fund raising events (eg Fitrah, other events)
- We do not charge your organisation for adding more projects, you can add as many as you like
- A tracking facility so you can see at a glance how much you have raised so far, who has donated, how many people have donated, how much each person has donated and whether their gift is a regular donation or a one-off donation
- A facility to send regular newsletters to your donors so they can see the results of their donations
- Automatic Gift Aid reclaim, meaning your organisation can claim 28% more on gifts from UK taxpayers, and no form filling on your part
- Donations transferred weekly to your bank account
- Gift Aid reclaimed monthly on your behalf and paid in to your bank account
- Friendly and professional online support from a team of technical specialists
For Donors
As an organisation, we are committed to the principles of Zakat and therefore understand how important your gift is to you, and to the charity who will receive it. Therefore we offer you:
- A website offering you a range of different projects to donate to
- A secure way of giving online which is hassle free and easy to use
- A way of ensuring your chosen project receives more money through the Gift Aid scheme (for more information, please see the Help section)
We can even help you to calculate how much Zakat you should be paying, by using simple Zakat calculator.
