Give A Little Named Finalist in Two Categories at The Card & Payment Awards 2026!

These nominations recognise Give A Little’s mission to make cashless giving simple, accessible, and sustainable for charitable organisations of every size — from national organisations to small community groups.

Over 10,800 charities are now using Give A Little to raise funds through contactless, QR, mobile, and online giving. These charitable organisations have raised more than £73 million through the platform, supporting causes across healthcare, heritage, environment, faith, and social welfare.

A key innovation in the past 12 months is the Give A Little Champion App, which enables charities to invite supporters at scale to collect donations using Tap to Pay on their smartphones — no card reader required. Payments are processed by leading payment processor, Stripe and the app was piloted with the support of Mastercard, which generously enabled new charities to Give A Little to try the app for six months free of charge during the pilot. This helped remove financial barriers and made it easier for charities to experience the benefits of supporter-led fundraising.

From air ambulances and hospices to churches, arts charities, and community groups, Give A Little is empowering thousands of organisations to raise more and create more impact.

Being recognised in these two categories celebrates how digital innovation with a focus on affordability and scalability can enhance donor choice, reduce barriers, and change lives in communities across the UK and beyond.

A huge thank you to the amazing charitable organisations in the Give A Little community, and to Mastercard for helping charitable organisations pilot this new technology. 

Together, we’re making giving easier, more impactful, and more inclusive — one tap at a time.
