The Belfast tech startup is leading the way in peer-to-peer donations with their revolutionary app that puts transparency at the core.

100% of the money you donate goes directly to the person who needs it via a prepaid card (one that prevents spending on things like gambling and alcohol).

Plus with monthly updates from the person receiving funds, you\u2019ll be a part of their transformational journey every step of the way.
