Donation Devices for Churches

Secure and simple to use contactless digital giving

A church is an important and sacred space for a community and often times visitors and worshippers will give generously, to support the mission and ministry at its core.

With giving an integral part of church life – a donation system should serve a Church well by making donating funds easy and safe. Whether donating as a visitor or a congregation member, it’s important that the donor can feel connected with a church’s fundraising aims.

We believe a church can benefit immensely from adding a donation device to its ministry. The Donation Station is designed to act as a fundraiser for your church, with numerous customisable features, it really is a purposeful digital tool for your benefit.

Why use a digital giving device?

While not replacing cash, the Donation Station adds an additional donation method at services and events. This ensures a church benefits from contactless or chip and pin card donations, as we increasingly find ourselves using digital payments over cash.

Both visitors and congregations can use the Donation Station to support fundraising causes like conservation or outreach work, whenever the church is open, and even when church representatives are not available.

Helping churches use digital services

The team at GWD knows how to deliver projects and installations with minimal disruption and complete respect for surroundings.  

Our approach is centred on support: we know the challenge of adding digital services isn’t always easy. We work hard to make the process straightforward, and to help achieve the most from a device.

We supply one-to-one support and easy-to-follow training materials to explain the Donation Station design, view collection data and even download reports. Your investment needs to deliver a good return; we have experience in adapting our services to achieve this.

Our work with churches has involved many different variations: ask us how your church could use a donation device.

Conversation Starter

Converting an initial donation into a meaningful relationship is also part of the Donation Station experience. Key prompts for information gathering allow you to capture data from donors that can be used to continue the conversation into the future.

Attract Loop

Part of the Donation Station’s key visual design features, the Attract Loop are screensavers purposefully designed to run on a loop. Created by GWD with your input, they use visuals or photography, plus an emotive call to action, to catch the donors interest and lead them towards donation through interactive storytelling.

Custom Branding

The entire Donation Station is open to branding, from external display to on-screen logos, photography and your brand look and feel.

Our design support service can adapt visuals and graphics to suit your brand.

Wifi or 4G/5G Data SIM

Where you need it, the Donation Station can be supplied with Data or Wifi connectivity.

If using the device in a remote location or at an event, it’s worth considering the signal strength available – GWD can support you to ensure there’s a smooth running operation on the day.

Encourages Promotion​

The opportunity to engage further with donors, and start a longer lasting relationship that converts to membership or legacy funding is here too.

We’ve designed the user journey to allow for interactive storytelling, to capture interest and guide the donor towards this goal.

Safe & Secure

All data is transmitted with full encryption, so you can be sure that all individual donor data is safely used, in accordance with GDPR regulations.

Specific Purpose Donation

Giving choice on where the donor wants their money to be spent empowers them further. The Donation Station asks this question and gives charities freedom to present their causes and activites as separate campaigns.

Gift Aid Up Sell

An integrated Gift Aid function on all Donation Stations helps boost fundraising a further 25%. This tax relief can be claimed from HRMC from any donor that supplies their contact details and makes a declaration, as a UK tax payer. The Donation Station is designed to encourage and secure this additional fundraising income easily, through simple reports that can be downloaded and submitted to HMRC as part of a Gift Aid claim.
