The donation collection platform of the NGO “Continuation” announced its closure due to the disconnection of payments in the T-Bank service. The publication “Takie Dela” reports this.
“By decision of T-Bank, the company CloudPayments , through which donations are processed for 465 charitable foundations in Russia, has disabled recurring payments on the website of the Continuation fund. This was done without explaining the reasons,” noted the “Continuation”.
Due to the disconnection of payments, 26 thousand people's subscriptions were stopped. The organization added that it helped more than 450 funds every month.
The fundraising platform “Continuation” began work on June 20, it is run by a team of specialists from the foundations “Need Help”, “House with a Lighthouse”, “Ray” and others.
- In February 2023, the publication “Takie Dela” separated from the “Need Help” charitable foundation.
- In early August, the charity foundation “Need Help” announced the cessation of work due to its “foreign agent” status. A little later, the online payment acceptance service CloudPayments (owned by T-Bank ) stopped accepting donations for the publication Takie Dela.
