Charity Credit Cards

Charity or affinity credit cards are fast becoming some of the most popular credit cards available. There's no mystery behind affinity cards - they're the same as regular credit cards but each time you use it, you're making a donation to your favourite charity or organisation of choice.

All affinity cards are backed by major credit card providers so you can be assured of a competitive deal and many organisations support a credit card using their branding because of this. Amongst others there are retail credit cards, charity credit cards, football credit cards and travel credit cards available.  By using an affinity credit card as you would any other credit card, you are making donations to charaties and organisations without having to put your hand in your pocket! 

Charity credit cards

Fund raising is a major part of charity to ensure their survival and charities have come up with an innovative approach by teaming up with credit card companies. The credit card companies will issue a credit card on behalf of the charity and for every person who takes out a charity credit card, the charity will receive a donation. More often than not, they will also receive a payment each time you make a purchase with the card.

If you would like to make regular donations to charity but cannot afford to then a charity credit card is a great way of doing it. Our table below shows some of the UK charities that have their own credit card.
