Receiving donations from our amazing supporters always comes with a cost attached, an upfront fee for online activities or time and resources involved in processing funds sent in by traditional methods.
To address these issues, we have been exploring alternatives that ensure both efficient transactions, more choices for our supporters and zero fees for everyone involved.
Yes, such an option exists, and we're happy to invite you to make a donation through our new provider 'Wonderful' which enables account-to-account transactions.
CAFOD has partnered with a supplier called Wonderful who will not charge us - or you, the supporter - any fees for making your donation.

FAQs
We recognise that the banking sector needs to make charges in order to keep businesses flowing. That is why you will see that we, and other platforms, invite our supporters to cover these fees. This makes our work more sustainable, but we also understand that our supporters often don't want to pay these fees.
When we found Wonderful, they understood these limitations and are philanthropic in their mission. Charities get the transactions for free, but companies can use their platform at a slight fee.
You donate using your bank app. It is secure, it is safe and it is direct from your account into CAFOD's bank account, meaning that we can get money to those whose needs are greatest.
