Charity & Donation

Charity and Donation Services - what is it?

Donations require most of the time either physical presence (for small amounts) or a more complex procedure like bank transfers or using a credit card on the web for instance. Premium SMS (i.e. SMS messages invoiced at a higher price than standard SMS price) make the donation process widely accessible, everyone owning a mobile phone and a subscription or pre-paid card can make a donation by sending a simple text message.

Premium SMS donations is available in Luxembourg only.
