Halifax credit cards generated £1.5 million in 2005 to Cancer Research UK (CRUK),
Mencap and the NSPCC.
Halifax currently donates £20 to the customer’s chosen charity
when they first use the card. Thereafter it dones 25p for every £100 spend on the
card.

Since 1988 Halifax charity credit cards have raised over £18 million. The company
claims that this makes it “the world’s most successful charity credit card provider.”
