Councils in the UK receive funding from a range of places, including:
Council tax, grants, business rates and fees and charges.
Many councils find these funds do not fully cover the full spectrum of projects they would like to support within the communities they serve. Hence, there is a need to raise additional resources. With contactless technology, these projects can be given a boost with self-service terminals that do not require a huge initial outlay, extra staff or extensive training.
Here are some great examples of fundraising projects that can be supported with contactless donation terminals.
A great example from Cambridge City Council who have utilised contactless technology on the streets – with the public making small donations in a fight to tackle homelessness. For as little as £3 – the price of a cup of coffee.

Placing self-service donation terminals in areas with high footfall is a great way to raise funds. It is quick and easy for donors to ‘tap and go’ as regularly as they like. Providers like Dona donations make it easy for charities to collect Gift Aid too, enhancing each eligible donation value by 25%.
The local library, leisure centre or shopping mall are all places that could raise much needed funds. Each terminal can have location specific funds that users can donate to making them more likely to give to a fund that would personally benefit them or their community.
Councils often run local events, such as firework displays or carnivals. Contactless terminals are perfect for placing at these events where a large part of the community will be gathering and enjoying local entertainment.
Dona Donations are an excellent choice of partner for contactless fundraising terminals and provide a custom solution for councils. See how the features and benefits below can help to boost local campaigns:
