New Digital Donation Box Set to Launch in February 2026

A new Digital Donation Box is being introduced to make giving simpler and more accessible for parishioners and visitors.


The system allows donations to be made electronically, meaning no cash is needed and supporters can contribute quickly and easily using card or contactless payment. For those who are UK taxpayers, Gift Aid can be added at the point of donation, allowing contributions to go even further at no extra cost to the donor.


The Digital Donation Box will also enable churches to take electronic payments for a range of purposes, including Piety Stall purchases and specific parish appeals, offering greater flexibility and convenience.


Further information will be shared after the Masses on 31st January and 1st February. The official launch is planned for the weekend of 14th and 15th February, when the new system will be available for use.
