Charities

A street appeal, a stall, or a donation drive still needs a tin people can actually use. TheTin gives your charity a permanent page and a fundraising QR code, so someone can give without cash in their pocket and without filling in a bank-transfer form later.

In the field

Where a charity QR code earns its keep

Fundraising events — a dinner, a quiz, a fun run: one code on the programme or a table tent.
Stalls and collection points — a market stall or a shop-window tin that still works when the float runs out.
Street and community appeals — volunteers can carry a printed card instead of hoping for coins.
Printed campaign material — posters, flyers, and appeal letters. The address does not change, so last year’s print is not a dead link.

Extra appeals can be sub-pages under the charity’s main address. What “contactless” means compared with tap-to-pay terminals is on Contactless donations.

Money

Donations go to the charity, not to TheTin

Connect your charity’s Stripe account. Givers scan and pay through Stripe Checkout. TheTin never holds the money. Stripe pays out to the charity’s bank on Stripe’s schedule.

TheTin’s fee is 1c–99c NZD per payment. Stripe’s processing fee is separate. Eligible nonprofits may apply to Stripe for a processing discount — that is Stripe’s decision. Nonprofit discount · Fees.

Who it’s for

Charities and churches first

Charities and churches are who TheTin is built for. Anyone collecting occasionally can use the same product. Churches thinking about Sunday offerings should start on Churches.
