In May 2005 a donation facility was added to this website, enabling anyone in the world with a credit or debit card, or a PayPal account, to make a one-off or regular donation to the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the UK and Ireland. The donation system has a clear interface which allows donors to specify the amount and purpose of the gift with just a few mouse clicks. Gift Aiding the donation is as simple as clicking on one button. Financial processing is handled by PayPal, which is widely recognised as being both simple and efficient. Members who have already set up PayPal accounts for purchases on eBay can authorise payments simply by entering their email address and password, while others can enter their credit or debit card details as they would for any Internet purchase. In the case of donations for local church use (or where the Gift Aid element can be earmarked for a particular local church), the donor has the option of selecting his or her preferred recipient church from a list.
