**Online payments company Nochex has introduced CharityChex, a donation handling
service designed particularly for smaller charities.**

The company, which already provides payment services to small and medium sized enterprises
throughout the UK and Europe, claims that it offers “one of the lowest transaction
rates” available to charities.

Donations are handled on a page created for them by [Nochex](http://www.nochex.com).
There is no charge for creating the page. Charities can integrate payment buttons
on their own website or Nochex’s integration team can do this for them.

CharityChex’s regular transaction charge is 1.4% + 10p, which it contrasts with 
other providers who charge more.
CharityChex will claim Gift Aid on behalf of charities“
and not keep any for itself”.

It states that a £50 donation with £12.50 Gift Aid on top would cost a charity just
98p, meaning that the charity would receive £61.52.

## BT MyDonate’s closure

Nochex has been recruiting smaller charities that previously used BT’s MyDonate 
service, which [closes in June](https://fundraising.co.uk/2019/01/21/bt-mydonate-close-june/).
These include All Saints Church (Winterton), Ambassadors Football Ireland, Batley
Homeless Project, the Centre for Adults’ Social Care – Advice, Information and Dispute
Resolution (CASCAIDr), Friends of Attend ABI (fAABI), Giving Sadaqa, and Jamyang
Buddhist Centre Leeds.

Kerry Prest, Director at Jamyang Buddhist Centre Leeds, was looking for a replacement
to BT MyDonate. “We were really very pleased when we learned that a company just
down the road from our new home could help us”, he said. “Nochex has taken care 
of almost everything for us and we are very grateful for their help.”

In addition to online payments, Nochex also provides the facility for its merchant
customers to accept payments over the phone, via email and recurring payments, membership
and payment solutions for clubs and other groups, as well as point of sale.

## Free transaction processing offer

Nochex is offering **free transaction processing** to charities until 31st July 
2019.

Commercial Director Andrew Baiden explains why Nochex has taken the approach of 
not charging charities for three months. He said: “We have had a great take-up among
the charities we approached, but there are just so many smaller charities that we
want to reach out to that offering a free service seemed like a great way to get
our message across.”
