What It Is

Give Sadaqa is a contactless donation payment solution tailored for mosques and religious institutions. As cash usage declines sharply and contactless payments become mainstream—reportedly reaching 85% in some regions—the service aims to make Sadaqa, or Islamic charitable giving, easier and safer through dedicated payment terminals.

Core Analysis

• Service type: Provides hardware payment terminals along with donation revenue tracking services.
• Supported payment methods: Supports contactless debit cards and mobile NFC payments, making donations frictionless for both younger and older users.
• Countries/regions covered: Primarily targets the European market. Current customer examples are concentrated in France and the Netherlands, including mosques in Kampen, Amsterdam, and Rotterdam. The service is used by more than 200 mosques.
• Settlement cycle: Donations are transferred directly into the mosque’s bank account, but the exact settlement timeframe is not specified.
• Compliance, licensing, risk controls, API and integrations: None of these details are disclosed in the available text. The service operates as a standalone hardware terminal and does not require the mosque to provide its own network connection, as it includes a built-in 4G SIM card. It is essentially a “plug-and-play” solution, with no clear indication of API integrations.

Pricing

The official website includes a “Pricing” entry point, but it does not publicly disclose specific details such as terminal hardware costs, transaction fees, or monthly subscription fees. You need to contact sales for a quote.

Pros and Cons

Pros: Addresses the specific pain point of declining cash donations in religious settings; built-in 4G connectivity, so venues do not need their own broadband; extremely simple to use, with a discreet and fast payment flow; provides a real-time revenue tracking dashboard.
Cons: Very narrow use case; pricing is not transparent; lacks details on compliance and fund security.

Who It’s For

Mosques and Islamic religious institutions in Europe that urgently need to digitize donations and increase contactless giving revenue.

Access from China

• Network access: Unknown. As this is a hardware terminal service, website accessibility is of limited relevance to end users.
• Payments and alternatives: Chinese payment methods are not supported. For general contactless payment needs, mainstream mPOS terminals such as SumUp and iZettle may be considered. For the religious donation niche, local vertical service providers with similar offerings would need to be identified.
