Poll: Would you be more likely to donate to a charity if contactless payments were an option?

Temple Street Children’s Hospital is introducing contactless payment versions of traditional bucket collection.

TEMPLE STREET UNIVERSITY Children’s Hospital in Dublin has said that it is introducing cashless donations in the run-up to Christmas this year. 

The hospital is currently developing CollecTin with VISA and cashless service Sum-up, which allows for contactless payment versions of traditional bucket collection. 

Last year, the Simon Community made a similar move and began accepting Apple Pay and Android Pay on mobile phones. 

So, today we’re asking: Would you be more likely to donate to a charity if contactless payments were an option?
