How It Works for Charities, Churches & Organisations
BritishPay makes it easy for charities, temples, churches, community centres and non-profit organisations to collect donations — safely, instantly and without complications.
Because our banking partner Griffin Bank does not onboard charities directly, BritishPay offers a simple alternative:
We allow your organisation to register using a representative person (chairperson, treasurer, committee member, etc.).
This representative completes a standard individual KYC check, and BritishPay creates a secure account on their name.
Your organisation can still receive and withdraw all donations to its own charity bank account.
Step-by-Step: How It Works
1. Select Your Organisation Type
During sign-up, choose:
Charity
Church
Temple
Club / Community Centre
Organisation
You’ll immediately see a message explaining that charities cannot be onboarded directly by Griffin Bank.
2. Add a Representative Person
You simply provide:
Full name of the responsible person
Date of birth
Address
Photo ID
This person is only used for verification.
The donations do NOT belong to the representative — they belong to your organisation.
3. BritishPay Creates a Secure Wallet
A BritishPay account is created in the representative’s name, but used exclusively for your organisation.
You'll receive:
A unique QR code for donations
Tap to Pay option for contactless giving
Ability to track incoming donations inside the app
4. Connect Your Charity’s Bank Account
Your organisation’s bank account is added under “Withdrawal Account”.
This is where all funds will be transferred.
5. Receive Donations Anywhere
Supporters can donate through:
QR code
Tap to Pay (NFC)
Send Money (if they are BritishPay users)
6. Withdraw Anytime
All money collected in your BritishPay wallet can be withdrawn directly to your charity’s own bank account.
Fast
Secure
No hidden charges
Never holds the charity’s money permanently
Why This Method?
Regulated partners like Griffin Bank currently do not support onboarding charities or non-profits.
To ensure BritishPay can still help your organisation accept digital donations, we use the legally accepted solution:
Onboarding a representative individual + organisation-owned withdrawal account
This method is fully compliant and commonly used by donation platforms worldwide.
