How much do brands donate when I shop with them?
•
Most brands pay a % of what you spend with them as a donation, for example if
you spend £150 on a hotel via booking.com, they will donate 3% which is £4.50.
•
Some retailers pay a flat amount, for example is you buy car insurance with
confused.com via easyfundraising, they will donate a flat £15 regardless of the
cost of the policy.
How many brands partner with easyfundraising?
•
We work with over 8,100 brands
Why do brands donate?
•
Brands are always looking for people to come to their websites to browse their
products and offers. Those brands pay websites like ours a commission if the
people we send to their website, go on to make a purchase.
How does easyfundraising make money?
•
Brands pay us a commission when a sale is made on their website from a
customer who has come via easyfundraising. We pass on at least 50% of that
commission to the cause you have chosen to support.
•
The donation amount you see on our website, app or browser extension is the
amount we pay across to the cause.
•
We also make money from advertising retailer offers and promotions in emails and
on our website
Do you have a browser extension?
•
Yes! Once you have an account set up on easyfundraising, you will have the
option to install our browser extension which we call, our Donation Reminder.
•
It will pop up on every retailer site where a donation is available which means you
don’t have to remember to come to easyfundraising first!
Do you have an App?
Yes! You can download our App from the Apple or Google Play stores.
Will using easyfundraising impact my loyalty points on websites I shop with?
•
No, for the main loyalty point providers the collection of points is unaffected when
you shop via easyfundraising.
•
If you want to double check a specific website or retailer, drop us a note at
support@easyfundraising.org.uk
Can I choose to support more than one cause?
•
You can only select one cause at a time for your donations to be added to, but you
can change this as often as you like
How does the cause I support get paid the donations?
•
We collect payment details from a cause when they register on the platform. Then,
once a quarter, we send across all donations which have been paid out by the
brands.
•
A cause needs to hit a minimum threshold of £15 before a payment is triggered
Does using easyfundraising make my online spend more expensive?
•
No. Using easyfundraising does not add any cost to your online shopping. The
brand covers the cost of the donation meaning it’s 100% free to use!
