You can now give online to the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund via Worldpay/NatWest.
The charity now accepts secure multi-currency transactions for gifts by Visa, Mastercard, JCB and Switch. Each donation is translated automatically into any local currency in real time. The donation form states that “Kensington Palace would like the opportunity to thank you for your donation” and asks for a postal address.
It is interesting to note that a charity is once again featuring as the showcase for a new electronic commerce solution. Worldpay chose its deal with The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund to promote its service, just as UUnet-Pipex’s secure online commerce department The Bureau chose the Isle of Eigg Appeal to promote its secure online transaction facility in 1996.
