Secure contactless payments, powered by Stripe

iDonate Tap runs on Stripe, a leading payment processor with best-in-class security. Card details aren't visible to the phone owner, the cause, or iDonate — they're never stored, and are protected in transit by industry-leading encryption.

Why Irish causes choose contactless donations

Built for volunteers, collectors and fundraisers who need to take a donation there and then.

Donations on the go

Accept a donation anywhere — at the church gate, the finish line, a bucket collection or a shop counter — with a tap of a phone or card.

Lower cost, less admin

As the shift to contactless accelerates, Tap improves efficiency and cuts administrative and hardware costs, freeing up resources for the cause.

An alternative to the cash bucket

Volunteers can use the free app instead of a cash bucket, so donors who don't carry cash can still give in seconds.

Our staff and volunteers used the iDonate Tap App for our National Flag Day event on World Suicide Prevention Day as a way to raise funds and awareness for Pieta's vital services. We had been struggling to find an easy and secure solution to enable supporters who don't carry cash to still donate, and this app was a fantastic addition. We were able to raise more funds on the day and we hope to incorporate this technology for our future campaigns.
