Our Work

Small change, big platform

The tech behind a nation of micro-donations

From plugin builds to partner rollouts, analytics to UX, we helped Pennies scale their purpose-driven payments across the eCommerce ecosystem.

Pennies is the fintech-for-good powering micro-donations in UK checkouts. But behind every tap-to-give moment is a serious tech operation - one that needs to work fast, flex across platforms, and protect conversion. We partnered with Pennies to build that infrastructure: platform-agnostic plugins, branded donation flows, onboarding kits for retailers, and impact reporting that speaks in pounds and pence.

Our work helped Pennies become more than a charitable add-on - we helped make it a product. With scalable modules, seamless UX, and retailer-ready integration tools, Pennies can now onboard partners faster, run more campaigns, and tell a stronger story of impact.

This is how micro-donations go macro.
