Online Purchases

Have you heard about easyfundraising yet? It’s the easiest way to raise money for your group!?34 million people in the UK now shop regularly online. Join easyfundraising and like 1000’s of other organisations, you can earn donations every time one of your supporters makes a purchase on the Web. Sounds too good to be true? Well read on…??

So how does it work?? You can shop with over 2,000 well known stores and each will donate up to 15% of what you spend. For example, John Lewis will donate 1%, Amazon 1.5%, The Body Shop 6%, some insurance retailers will even donate up to £30 simply for taking out a policy with them!

How much can you raise??When a supporter spends £100 with M&S online, they’ll raise £5 for you. £100 spent with Amazon raises £1.50, whilst £100 with WH Smith puts £2.00 in your pocket and so on. Some donations can be as much as 15% of the purchase price. Purchasing with well known insurers such as Aviva will generate a one-off donation, sometimes as much as £40!??

Which retailers are included??easyfundraising works with over 2,000 of the best known online retailers, including all the big brand names such as Amazon, Argos, M&S, John Lewis, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Comet, Boden, netflix, Boots, B&Q, Thomas Cook, Virgin and many, many more. There really is something for everyone!??

Hang on…what’s the catch??No catch. The donation is passed on from the actual retailer as a percentage of the purchase price and doesn’t cost you or your supporters a penny. It’s much cheaper for retailers to sell goods online than in the high street so they’re happy to pass part of the extra profit to your organisation as a donation. 

There is also a handy little tool you can download so make sure you download the Donation Reminder.

 Basically it's an extension to your web browser (i.e. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, or Safari) that will remind you every time a donation is available when you’re shopping online.

·  It’s safe, secure and used by thousands!

·  Absolutely free to use!

·  No adverts, and

·  You’ll never miss valuable donations again!
