@N_Abey who do you use? As they recommend cardstream but cardstream isnt eligible for shopify
Topic summary
A Shopify store owner seeks a payment gateway that automatically directs a percentage of transactions to charity. Their current solution, Charity Clear, is incompatible with Shopify because it requires Cardstream, which isn’t natively supported.
Proposed Solutions:
-
Custom Integration: A Shopify partner offers to integrate Cardstream as a private gateway specifically for the store, though this would limit it to that single shop.
-
Alternative Apps: Several Shopify apps were suggested that enable charitable giving from product sales:
- Pledger UK Giving App
- iequalchange (sustainability-focused giveback)
- 1ClickImpact (environmental actions like tree planting with real-time tracking)
These alternatives differ from the original request—they’re donation apps rather than payment gateways with built-in charity routing. The discussion remains open regarding whether the store owner found a suitable payment gateway solution or opted for one of the app-based alternatives.
