Payroll Giving donations are made from a donor’s gross pay, so Gift Aid cannot be claimed on these donations.
These donations are processed a month in arrears, so a donation made from January salaries will be processed by us in February, to arrive with charities in early March.
Payroll Giving donations are processed in arrears and in accordance with HMRC Regulations.
Payroll Giving donations will arrive in your bank with the reference:
“CHARITABLE GIVING/PAYROLL GIVING”.
Contact preferences
We collect donor contact preferences per charity, these preferences can be found on the far right-hand side of the Payroll Giving report. Please ensure you read the GDPR notice when you log in.
