Challenge

Challenges we know well

Round-up micro-donation has enormous potential in Brazil, but integrating with the POS systems of large retail chains was the bottleneck standing between the model and real scale.

Integration with large retail POS systems

Connecting technically to the point-of-sale systems of multiple large retail chains, each running its own technology stack.

Processing millions of micro-transactions

Handling millions of cent-level round-up transactions reliably, without slowing anything down at the register.

Managing distribution across nonprofits

Building a management panel for the careful, automated distribution of collected donations among partner nonprofits.

Transparency for everyone involved

Opening impact reports to donors, retailers and beneficiary nonprofits, with every cent traceable to its destination.

Solution

Our approach
