Your questions answered
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.
We work with over 8,100 brands
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.
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.
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!
Yes! You can download our App from the Apple or Google Play stores.
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
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
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
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!
