Top tips on making sure that your donations track

To make a purchase and earn a donation through easyfundraising, you need to start your shopping through one of our platforms:

• Website
• Mobile Apps
• Donation Reminder Browser Extension

You also need to:

1. Check Brand Terms

   • Before shopping, review the terms on the retailer's listing on our platform to ensure your purchase is eligible for a donation.

2. Activate Your Donation

   • Activate the donation every time before you start shopping to inform the brand of our referral.
   • If modifying an order, such as adding items to a grocery shop after checkout, reactivate the donation before you check out.
   • Aim to complete your shopping in one go to avoid issues with pre-saved or previously added items in your cart.

3. Login to Your Account

   • Always log into your easyfundraising account before you start shopping to ensure that your donations are properly tracked.

4. Use Only easyfundraising Voucher Codes

   • Use only the voucher codes and offers provided through easyfundraising to avoid disqualification of your donation.

5. Accept Cookies on Retailer Websites

   • Ensure you accept cookies when prompted on the retailer's website to allow for proper tracking of your purchases.

6. Avoid Private or Incognito Browsing

   • Use a regular browser window, as private or incognito modes can interfere with donation tracking.

7. Complete Online Purchases

   • If you encounter issues online and must complete your purchase over the phone, this may invalidate your donation. Notify us if this occurs so we can attempt to secure your donation.

8. Browser Settings

   • Ensure that cookies are enabled and that pop-up blockers and ad-blockers are disabled in your browser settings.

9. Enable JavaScript

   • Check that JavaScript is enabled in your browser for optimal website functionality and tracking.

10. Avoid Using a VPN

    • Do not use a VPN during shopping, as it can obscure your location and interfere with tracking.

11. Configure Anti-Virus and Firewall Settings

    • Adjust your anti-virus software and firewall settings to allow affiliate links, which are essential for tracking your purchases.

12. Insurance and Large Purchases

    • When buying insurance or making significant purchases, ensure to start and complete the transaction in one session to guarantee donation tracking.

13. Separate Transactions for Better Donation Rates

    • If purchasing multiple items with different donation rates, consider separate transactions to maximize donation amounts.

14. Multiple Policies or Contracts

    • For multiple insurance policies or mobile contracts, purchase each separately to ensure a donation is credited for each transaction.
