INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Fintech startup Revolut wants to make it easier to donate to charities
Using a new feature, you can now round up card payments to the nearest whole number and donate a little amount to a charity
Over time, those donations might add up.The startup already has some features to put some money aside and save over time using vaults
Essentially, Revolut is giving you the same tools
But instead of putting money in a vault, you donate that money.In addition to rounding up transactions, you can multiply spare change by a
factor of 2x, 3x, 4x, etc
There are also no fees for charity partners
And, of course, you can stop donations in one tap.Revolut has partnered with three charities for now
You can donate to Save the Children, WWF and ILGA-Europe
There will be more charities in the future.
