Mobile apps are advancing rapidly, and organisations that don't adopt mobile technologies will be left behind, including charities. Shockingly, only 25% of charities accept donations via mobile apps, indicating a significant gap in embracing this technology.
Research suggests that millennials spend less than previous generations. However, when they do spend, they prefer brands that promote corporate responsibility and social good. Unsurprisingly, technology is crucial to younger generations, with most preferring digital payment methods over cash.
This preference extends to charitable giving. According to a survey by Moneymailme, 72% of 18 to 25-year-olds would donate to charity via a mobile app if given the option. Additionally, 62% would feel frustrated if forced to donate through other means, such as cash or telephone.
Given these insights, why aren't charities adopting mobile apps? The primary challenge is the complexity of the mobile app industry. Companies like The Café App Ltd are dedicated to helping charities navigate this landscape and develop solutions that promote their brand, engage more donors, and enhance consumer interactions.
Regardless of the industry, apps offer a more meaningful brand experience through rich and engaging content that informs, educates, and entertains users.
However, it's not just about the money. Mobile apps can improve the support experience for individuals who rely on charities, reducing frustration and personalizing the experience to such an extent that users actively engage with the information provided by the charity.
