StiftungSchweiz is subject to the Money Laundering Act. All processes and transactions on our platform are optimized to the highest security standards in order to offer you a secure donation option. Each organization is manually verified and checked for tax exemption.

You can learn more about data security at StiftungSchweiz in the blog post “Digital donations – but secure”.

 

No, only tax-exempt Swiss organizations can be activated on the donation platform. We had to introduce this restriction due to the money laundering act. However, this is how we guarantee that all processes are legally compliant and that donations reach the organizations safely and efficiently.

To use the donation tools, your organization must be tax-exempt. We perform verification based on documents and information that should confirm the tax exemption of your organization.

You start the verification process in the organization menu in the “Verification” tab. In an uncomplicated 3-step process, you upload the necessary documents there and enter the relevant information about your organization. We will check your documents and in the shortest possible time you will receive a decision.
