Your organization stays in control.
No card data stored on the device
Card data is encrypted instantly and sent directly to Stripe’s infrastructure. Nothing on a fundraiser’s phone can reconstruct a card number.
Scoped permissions
Fundraisers can collect donations and nothing else. No dashboard access, and no donor data beyond what’s required for the transaction.
Safe for personal devices
Extend access to staff and volunteers with confidence. There is no card data on the device for anyone to see or misuse.
FAQ
Tap to Donate is currently available only for events in the United States.
Yes. Tap to Donate is part of the Fundraise Up platform and requires an organization account.
Square processes a payment. Tap to Donate processes a donation, attributed to a campaign and linked to a donor record in the same platform as your online giving. The gift shows up in your dashboard, connects to the donor's history, and is ready for follow-up. A standalone terminal can't do that.
No. Tap to Donate turns a supported smartphone into a donation terminal — no card reader, no external hardware, no new vendor. If your fundraisers have a compatible phone, they're ready to collect.
iPhone XS or newer running iOS 16.4+ and compatible NFC-capable Android phones running Android 11+. Tap to Donate isn’t supported on iPads, Android tablets, or external terminals at this time.
Yes. Payments run through Stripe; card data isn’t stored on the device, and specialists have tightly scoped access.
Yes. Multiple specialists can collect in parallel; each specialist sees only the donations they collected.
First name, last name, email, and phone. For one-time gifts it can be skipped; for recurring gifts it’s required.
Yes. Tap to Donate supports recurring giving at any frequency enabled on the campaign: daily, weekly, biweekly, every 4 weeks, monthly, bimonthly, quarterly, semiannually, or annually.
No. An internet connection is required (cellular is fine). If the connection drops mid-transaction, the card isn’t charged.
