π’ Sign up process for Charities
A charity registers and assigns Swiftaid as a charity nominee. The charity then links a donation source by selecting their provider in their Swiftaid account.

Once linked, Swiftaid will be notified every time a donation is made through that source by a donor that has signed up to Swiftaid and Gift Aid will make its way directly from HMRC to the charity automatically.
Swiftaid works as a Gift Aid nominee for UK charities and assigns Gift Aid to the relevant charity every time a qualifying donation is found, managing all records and auditing required by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
