Offerings doubled by contactless collections: Church of England digital giving scheme to go nationwide
from Christian Today:
The successful trial of contactless offerings in the Church of England has led to an extension of the scheme across England and Wales, according to the company behind it.
London-based payment technology company SumUp has introduced the contactless collection box, aimed at making donations and transactions faster and easier for congregations, in a small number of churches. It says they have experienced a doubling of donations since its introduction.
The technology can be used to take contactless payments, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and is capable of supporting 500 transactions without recharging. A fixed table-top version of the solution is also available, enabling people to donate before or after the service.
