SPCA Waikato gets paws on new donation monitoring system
A recent partnership with recurring payment solutions provider Debitsuccess has seen SPCA Waikato introduce a new
donation monitoring system, enabling more transparency and greater donor engagement.
A not-for-profit animal welfare organisation, SPCA Waikato is funded entirely by the Waikato community. Its core purpose
is to improve the lives of animals which it aims to achieve by preventing cruelty and alleviating suffering, and
providing education and advocacy. According to the organisation’s Executive Officer Sara Elliott-Warren, SPCA Waikato is
already reaping the benefits of working with the payment company.
“We didn’t have a formal regular giving programme in place so with the development of our Guardian Angels programme we
needed a secure and reliable portal for people to donate on a regular basis,” says Sara.
“Debitsuccess is an attractive option for us because of the transparency with costs – it’s an affordable and
professional method. For us, there’s significant value in having a third party that can distribute SPCA Waikato branded
welcome letters to our new clients and engage with a donor if there are changes to their donation, for example change of
details or donation amount.”
This donation monitoring is critical for the SPCA Waikato which has an annual operating budget of $1 million met
entirely through fundraising and donations. With the assistance of Debitsuccess, the not-for-profit organisation now has
a regular giving platform that improves the donor experience, reduces in-house administration and supports regular
cashflow.
Sara adds: “We value the security of our donors’ information and have found Debitsuccess to be extremely helpful and a
valuable component in the launching of our regular giving programme.”
Part of the Transaction Services Group (TSG), a leading global payment solutions provider with a presence in Australasia
and the United Kingdom, Debitsuccess’ business model is based on the subscription economy. This approach is increasingly
being used by small and medium sized businesses through to large companies to secure reliable cash flow, and gives
customers the ability to pay for goods and services via a regular, frequent instalment plan, rather than a large lump
sum.
