Adyen launches Giving in partnership with Gap Inc., Delivery Hero and Crocs
AMSTERDAM, Oct. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Adyen (AMS:ADYEN), the payments platform of choice for many of the world's 
leading companies, has today announced the rollout of Giving - a product 
feature that enables Adyen's merchants to accept charitable donations during 
the online and in-store checkout process, and allows them to strengthen their 
bond with their shoppers by providing a platform for their preferred charitable 
causes. By doing so, Giving converts shoppers' good intentions into additional 
revenue streams for charitable causes.  

Adyen partnered with a host of leading brands to launch Giving, including Gap 
Inc., Delivery Hero and Crocs. In line with the company's philosophy of 
leveraging its technology to make a positive impact, Adyen will absorb the full 
cost of the donation.* 

"Our founder, Don Fisher, firmly believed that 'we do more than sell clothes' 
has always been at the heart of what we do," said Ben Wittman, Senior Director 
at Gap EU. "Adyen has made it simple and accessible for our shoppers to give 
back to their communities in our stores."

"Meal donation is a core part of our Corporate Social Responsibility ambition 
at Delivery Hero. Adyen has been a great partner in building out the donation 
strategy for our ShareTheMeal project," says Jeffrey Oatham, Director of CSR & 
Sustainability of Delivery Hero. 

"Adyen's innovative donation technology provides our shoppers with a seamless 
and transparent way to support our partners, like Feeding America, with one 
click," notes Feliz Papich, Senior Director Ecommerce Product Manager of Crocs. 
"It excites me that through teaming up with Adyen, donating to charitable 
causes is now so frictionless."

"The combined strengths of our merchants' forward-thinking attitudes and our 
technology create a multiplier effect that enables fundraising for charitable 
causes at tremendous scale," comments Pieter van der Does, co-founder and CEO 
of Adyen. "Giving increases the pool of funds available to charities by playing 
into newly evolved donation behavior at a time when charities are increasingly 
unable to rely on traditional means of giving. I'm proud that we're using our 
technology to enable our merchants to cater to these evolving needs - 
especially during a global pandemic, when it's more important than ever for 
charities to have the funds they need."

With a single tap on a point-of-sale terminal or the click of a button at an 
online checkout, shoppers can donate to the merchants' charity of choice. 
Giving transactions seamlessly integrate into existing checkout processes 
across all payment channels, and shoppers' donations are reported and settled 
to the charity of choice directly without impacting the merchants' existing 
reconciliation flow. For more information on Giving, go
