All businesses need to find solutions and systems that suit them exactly, and one that some struggle to find complete satisfaction with is in making secure, reliable financial transactions. For NFP’s in particular, it is often vitally important to allow supporters easy and secure ways to submit donations, as difficulties can cost you business, and mistakes can take unnecessary time and resources to unravel.

PoliPayments, an online payment system that has been in operation since 2007 has recently adjusted their rate scale to offer discounted rates to NFPs, and it is well worth considering to meet the needs of your organisation.

Connected to online banking services, PoliPayment is a secure way to pay for goods and services, and can be connected to your NFP’s website and Facebook page with an instant and easy to install app. It is then available to your customers from any online device, so making donations is equally easy from the PC in the office to the phone in your patron’s pocket. It is a straightforward system, with autofill options, making using it even faster. There is no sign-up involved, so no delays in getting started, and no extra password to remember!

Connecting to internet banking has the added benefit of utilising bank security, as well as PoliPayment security systems. PoliPayment makes special commitment to ensure confidentiality and security in all payments. Records for payment recipients are complete, and all donations received are coupled with email addresses of donors, making issuing accurate receipts easy.

PoliPayment’s seamless connection to internet banking services also avoids the extra step (and added fees) paying through credit card systems can entail. Some people hesitate to donate online as they are reluctant to use their credit card for such expenses, and PoliPayment removes this obstacle for them, and your NFP can end up benefiting.

PoliPayments is free for customers, and recipients of payments only pay a nominal fee for each completed transaction, so be sure to look into how it can suit the needs of your NPF.
