What is this?

If you are a charitable organization, this PHP web-based application will enable you to receive instant donations from people when they are out and about.

The application gives you the opportunity to generate unlimited trackable QR Codes for each campaign/cause that you run. It will also gather analytics data when people scan them or type in the URL, and the donation amounts made.

It will also generate image overlays for you to use along side your campaign. When people scan these barcodes or type in the URL, they will be able to review the campaign/cause and donate an amount within a range that you specify. The payment is handled by Google Donate or by PayPal mobile.

How does it work?

Each campaign that you create has its own QR Code. You can then display the QR Code on flyers, and give them to people. When the QR Codes are scanned, or the URL address typed in, people will be prompted to enter an amount to donate. They will then be billed by Google Donate or PayPal Mobile.

Each amount they donate is reported back to the admin end. Also QR Code analytics data is gathered when they are scanned, and reported back to the admin.
