Frequently Asked Questions
Do nonprofits get lower credit card processing rates in Canada?
Yes. Visa and Mastercard offer reduced interchange rates for registered charities and nonprofits. With PaymentsPlus interchange-plus pricing, these savings are passed directly to your organization — typically 0.3-0.5% lower per transaction than standard rates.
How can charities accept recurring monthly donations?
PaymentsPlus provides automated recurring billing where donors authorize a card on file for monthly, quarterly, or annual gifts. Failed payments are retried automatically, and donors receive tax receipts for each successful donation.
Can we accept donations at fundraising events?
Yes. The Clover Go smartphone reader lets volunteers accept tap and chip donations anywhere — at galas, walkathons, door-to-door campaigns, and community events. Each transaction is tagged to the specific campaign or fund for reporting.
