ABOUT

Work for Good is a charity fundraising platform for businesses, allowing organisations of any size to easily turn the work they’re already being paid for into funding for the causes they care about. Businesses register via the website and set up a public profile, deciding a target and the charities they’d like to support. After agreeing a piece of work with their client(s), this is then added to the system. Once the work has been completed, the donation is made via the secure payment system.

Hactar were tasked with designing and building the WfG digital platform from scratch, beginning with a phase of intensive workshops and user research, and ending with a polished, secure and simple-to-use web platform. There are four core components to the MVP launch; the public-facing brochure site explains what the service is, and showcases the organisations and charities taking part; a user dashboard, where registered businesses manage their profile - including uploading of photos and videos, setting targets, and assigning charities - with full control over the information they share publicly; the Work and donations system, which integrates with Stripe for secure, manageable payments; and the WfG admin panel, which gives full granular control over every aspect of the platform, from copy editing to payment and user management.

WfG continue to work with Hactar to expand the platform for the future, building on the work done in the initial user research, while testing and learning from the live platform.

WfG soft launched to SME's in late 2016, but have already attracted exceptional attention from larger organisations looking to embed the culture of giving more fully into their businesses.
