Benevity is a global leader in workplace giving and volunteering solutions. Benevity’s flagship product “Spark” is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) application which allows users to engage in their company’s donation and volunteering programs through a web or mobile application. It is common for our clients to run events or campaigns where they would like to collect donations, but this is not easily possible using our existing SaaS application.
For this project, we will leverage modern internet-connected credit card payment technologies to expose Benevity’s powerful donation processing platform via a simple “tap to donate” device, which can be configured for a specific amount and for a specific charity. The device can be left out with accompanying signage anywhere there is an internet connection, and individuals can simply tap to make a quick donation.
