FYI if you use any app on an iPhone or iPad to make a donation to a charity be aware that Apple will take 30% of your donation for themselves.
This includes fundraisers on Facebook. Apple actually banned Facebook from telling their users this fact and told them to remove the notice from the Facebook app or risk having the app removed from the App Store.
Due to mounting media pressure Apple have given a 3 month window whereby they will waive this fee but after that it is back to 30% cut for any transaction made through any IOS app.
That £20 you sent to your friend's birthday fundraiser... Yep £6 to Apple and only £14 to the charity. 30% is way way over the top of normal payment processing fees and in my opinion disgustingly greedy when it comes to charity payments.
