Have we teamed up with your bank yet?
Your business bank must be displayed in order to use Wonderful Payments. We also have a list of supported banks for customer payments for reference. We’re adding new banks at a pace to match our Head of Tech’s coffee consumption. (Almost.)
If your business bank isn't supported yet, please suggest a business bank and we’ll be in touch.
Back in 2016, we launched wonderful.org - a free charity fundraising platform that teamed up with some of the UK’s most deserving causes. It’s where our journey began, and it’s why we’ve always believed in using tech for good.
Our platform quickly gained traction and was endorsed by the Money Saving Expert. But with all that success came a challenge - the high cost of card processing started holding us back, limiting how much we could do.
Switching to Open Banking was the game-changer. It didn’t just solve our problem, it solved yours too. We believe businesses and charities shouldn’t be hit with high fees just to get paid.
We’re still proudly providing fee-free services to UK charities, because we know charities, donors, and fundraisers do amazing work every day. Now, you and your customers can help support those efforts with a wonderful, hassle-free checkout experience.
“We’ve been using Wonderful for a few months now. Reducing payment processing costs by 99% is a winner, but we’ve also been very impressed with the payments technology. We can use Wonderful's One app to take payment in the showroom or generate a payment link which we email to our customer. Either way, the money is in our account instantly and we remove all the faff of getting paid.
The Wonderful team is very helpful so if you’re new to open banking or have any questions about how it works, they’re always on hand. Getting started is straightforward and you’ll be saving straight away. Highly recommend.”
People who think we're wonderful
“In a world were most organisations are trying to make money out of anyone and everyone, Wonderful has given us a fundraising platform that is free, enabling us to give more funds to our cause and the reason we are here.
Finally we have now found a fundraising platform that is really here for charities. Thank you Wonderful.”
“We're in the open banking space now. It has been a huge priority of mine to exceed user's expectations and if there is a financial benefit to us (free transactions) then it's a no brainer. Thank you to the Wonderful team.”
“Wonderful is our preferred online donation platform where we receive 100% of a donation plus Gift aid. In the current, very challenging fundraising climate this is very important to us as a charity.”
“As a small organisation, every penny counts and we were staggered at the level of service we received from the team, with every penny donated coming back to the charity.”
“Wonderful has been an amazing partner for us and helps us to fulfil our pledge to our donors that 100% of their donations go to the intended deserving recipients of our scholarships.”
“What we like about Wonderful.org is that it is truly a no-fuss platform for people to use to donate to a charity. Easy for people to donate on and easy for us as a charity to log in and find out the information we need for our records.”
“I’ve been really happy to use Wonderful – we’ve predominantly used it for our company challenges to raise money for a small, lesser-known charity. It’s enormously reassuring to know that all the money raised goes to the charity.”
