Smart digital tools for meaningful fundraising

Empowering digital giving for every community.
We believe every organisation should have access to modern fundraising tools—regardless of size, budget, or technical ability. theOlivepod bridges the digital divide with inclusive, accessible technology that makes giving simple for everyone.

Empowering fundraising with simple, smart & inclusive tools

At theOlivepod, we’re a team of experienced engineers, developers, and solution architects driven by one simple belief: technology should be easy and accessible.

Our journey began in 2022, when a charity came to us with a clear problem—existing donation technology was expensive, complex, and locked behind high hardware and subscription costs. We knew there had to be a better way.

In 2023, we launched theOlivepod: a powerful yet affordable platform for contactless giving. Since then, we’ve expanded to include QR code donations, online fundraising, mobile fundraising, and Gift Aid automation—all in one unified system.

Our mission is simple:
Make digital giving accessible, affordable, and effective for charities, mosques, churches, and community organisations of every size.

We are proudly bootstrapped and community-focused—no outside investors, just a commitment to real-world impact. Every feature is shaped by feedback from our users and designed to scale with your mission.

Contactless donation station allow donors to give instantly using NFC, chip & PIN, and mobile wallets — perfect for environments where speed and simplicity matter.
