Payroll Giving donations now more important than ever

With so many people in need, our charity partners are now looking for support via Payroll Giving more than ever. During these unprecedented times charities are even more reliant on regular donations from their supporters.

What are the benefits?

Not only is Payroll Giving super simple, but it's also tax-effective. This is because your donation gets deducted before you pay HMRC. For example, if you donate £5, the cost to you in your take-home pay is £4, and HMRC pays the rest!

Payroll Giving donations are worth up to 88% more than cash and direct debit donations. The amount your chosen charity receives will always be equal to or better than Gift Aid. Click here to read more about Payroll Giving vs. Gift Aid.

What if I change my mind?

Charities benefit from regular donations, which help them plan and budget. If you set up a regular donation, you can cancel it, change the amount, or even choose which charities you would like to support at any time.

How much will my donation cost out of my take-home pay?

You donate   You pay
Cost to you as a 20% tax rate payer  
Cost to you as a 40% tax rate payer  
Cost to you as a 45% tax rate payer  

If you are setting up Payroll Giving donations to replace any giving you currently do via Direct Debit, please remember to cancel your Direct Debit.

Which charities can I support?

Donations can be made to any UK-registered national/local charity or recognised good cause, such as places of worship, schools, or scout groups.

You can nominate more than one charity to benefit from your donations, and you can easily change the amount or nominated charities at any time. If your chosen charity is not listed on this site, you can still support them. Just make sure to include their charity number so there is no delay in forwarding your donation. Please contact us via the live chat on the bottom left of your screen if you have any questions.
