Contactless Donation Kiosks for Churches
The collection plate still matters, but fewer hands reach into a pocket for it each Sunday. A DonorDynamics donation kiosk gives your congregation a second way to give, one that works for the members and visitors who stopped carrying cash years ago, and it captures Gift Aid declarations on eligible donations as they happen.
From a single parish church to a multi-site congregation, every device arrives pre-configured. Unbox it, connect it, and it is ready to take donations the same afternoon.
Why the Collection Plate Needs a Partner
Cash now accounts for roughly one in ten UK payments, and Sunday giving feels that shift before anything else. The generosity has not gone anywhere. The notes and coins have. A kiosk near the door lets a worshipper give in the time it takes to tap a card, at every service, all week long.
- Takes Apple Pay, Google Pay, contactless cards, on screen PIN, and QR code donations
- Runs unattended in locked kiosk mode, so no steward or sidesperson is tied to it
- LED edge lighting picks up your campaign colours and catches the eye in a porch or narthex
- GDPR and PCI DSS compliant, so payment details never become your problem to store
Gift Aid Without the Envelope Scheme
Each device runs Give A Little fundraising software, which captures digital Gift Aid declarations on screen. A UK taxpayer completes a short declaration and your church claims 25% on top from HMRC, with every declaration stored and exported ready for your claim. No envelopes to issue, no paperwork to file in the vestry, no declarations going missing.
Matching a Device to Your Building
A medieval nave, a 1960s church hall and a city-centre church plant all need something different. Five form factors cover them.
CharityTab, £399
The starting point for most parishes. Wireless and VESA-mountable, it sits on a welcome table, fixes to a pillar bracket or hangs by the south door. Many churches begin with one and add a second once the first pays its way.
CharityWall, £439
A fixed giving point for the narthex or entrance lobby. Mounted at eye level, it becomes part of the welcome itself: noticed on the way in, used on the way out.
CharityDesk, £439
Made for staffed spots such as the welcome desk or the church bookshop counter, with a 1.8 m security cable so it stays where you put it.
CharityPole, £729
A freestanding pole with the screen at standing height. Wheel it from the porch for Sunday services to the hall for the midweek toddler group, then out to the summer fete.
CharityStand, £899
The full floor-standing kiosk for cathedrals, minsters and larger churches with real visitor footfall, and for seasonal moments such as Christmas and Easter when the building fills.
Live Before Next Sunday
Give A Little comes pre-installed at the factory. Three things stand between unboxing and your first donation:
- Wi-Fi in the building, or a mobile dongle where the signal struggles
- A free Give A Little account from givealittle.co
- A Stripe account linked to the PCC or church bank account
Connect, sign in, done. No diocesan IT request, no contractor visit.
One Device, Multiple campaigns
Create as many campaigns as you need and customise each one with your own branding, imagery and suggested donation amounts. From the Give A Little dashboard you can change what appears on screen at any time, without anyone touching the device. Switch to the general fund on a Sunday morning, launch a building appeal, or put a Christmas campaign live on 1 December, all controlled remotely.
Questions Churches Ask Us
Do we need a new bank account?
No. Stripe pays out to the account your church or PCC already banks with, on an automatic schedule.
Can members set up regular giving on the kiosk?
Yes. Give A Little supports recurring donations directly on screen, a natural successor to the standing-order form.
Our walls are a metre of stone. What about Wi-Fi?
Common problem, simple fix. A 4G dongle or a small router near the device gives a reliable connection where the parish broadband cannot reach. Ask us and we will recommend a setup for your building.
What does it cost to run?
The hardware is a one-off purchase from DonorDynamics with no subscription. Give A Little applies a platform fee and Stripe charges its standard processing rate. That is the whole cost picture.
