New Christmas cards and more…
21st November 2015

New Cards: We’ve introduced 8 new Christmas and Season’s Greetings card designs this year, as well as bringing in cards for a variety of new occasions (Eid, Chanukah, Rakhi, Diwali, Valentine’s Day and Father’s Day). We’ve also improved the quality of our posted cards.

E-vouchers: Meanwhile, our e-vouchers now come with the image you choose, instead of just the voucher image on its own, making them much more attractive for the people getting them.

Pricing: For the first time in four years we’ve made some changes to our pricing structure. This is to help us ensure that we keep the service viable to run, while at the same time being able to afford to keep up with things like the latest website security improvements.

Security: We now use ‘https’, which means you’ll now see the security padlock in the ‘address bar’ at the top of every page, instead of just when you’re making payments. So, whether you’re ordering, redeeming or just contacting us to enquire about vouchers, all your private information is encrypted and safe.

Charity Vouchers shortlisted for ‘Digital Heroes 2015 – Fundraising Section’.
11th August 2015

We’re delighted to announce that Charity Vouchers and its founder have been shortlisted today in the ‘Digital Heroes 2015’ competition, in the Fundraising Section.

The selection reflects our contribution by inventing the Charity Gift Voucher concept and going on to set up and run a not-for-profit company to run the Charity Vouchers service. A service which now generates thousands of pounds every year for UK Registered Charities – large and small, international and local!

There is a prize of £5000 which we would love to win in order to automate our digital vouchers (e-vouchers and print-it-yourself vouchers) so that they could be sent out within seconds of ordering rather than having to wait for us to process them. Not only would this free up our time to do other work but it would be a great improvement for customers in the service they were getting. In turn, we are very hopeful that this would increase sales and, therefore, increase the funds raised for UK charities.

See if you can guess which 5 UK charities were the most popular with Charity Voucher donors in the first 6 months of 2015?

We’ve just done a check. The top five were: Cancer Research UK, The Alzheimer’s society, The British Heart Foundation, Macmillan and Save The Children.

For comparison, in the last 6 months of 2014, the order was Cancer Research UK, Macmillan, The British Heart Foundation, Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) and WaterAid.
