FAQ's
Is my credit card information safe? All credit card transactions are processed using secure encryption -- the same level of encryption used by leading banks. Card and bank information is tokenized, transmitted, and processed securely on a PCI-Compliant network. We do not transmit or store any card data in our system -- only tokens.
Why is my credit card number showing up when I register my text to give account? If you've made a donation through our website before, the system does have a record of the 'token' as described above.
When will I get my charitable receipt? All charitable receipts will be be available for eligible donations by the end of February next year.
