The Kallpa Pay guide
How can card payments become donations to charities?
Kallpa Pay rounds purchases up to the next euro. The spare change builds in a donation pool and is distributed monthly to the charities in your Mix. You choose the causes, monthly limit and plan that suit you.

Kallpa Pay at a glance
Round-ups make regular giving simpler: a €4.63 purchase adds €0.37 to your donation pool. You track amounts in the app, control your budget with a monthly limit and choose the charities that benefit.
How it works, step by step
- 1
Choose your plan
With Standard, you securely synchronize your main bank account through Powens and keep using your usual card. Premium adds an account with a French IBAN and a virtual Kallpa Pay Mastercard.
- 2
Enable automatic round-ups
Each card payment is rounded up to the next euro. The difference is added to your donation pool without any repeated action after purchases.
- 3
Set a monthly limit
Choose a limit that fits your budget. Once it is reached, new payments no longer generate round-ups until the following month.
- 4
Build your charity Mix
Choose the charities you want to support. At the end of the month, your donation pool is shared among the organisations in your Mix.
Everyday giving
Why are round-ups so easy to use?
An ice cream, fruit from the market or an online purchase can all contribute to your donation pool. Each amount is small, but they gradually add up throughout the month.
Automation means you do not need to think about donating after every expense. It does not remove your control: your chosen monthly limit remains the maximum.
Example
For a €12.60 payment, the round-up is €0.40. That €0.40 is added to your Kallpa Pay donation pool.
Tangible causes
You choose the charities, not an algorithm.
Your Mix reflects the causes that matter to you. Charities available in Kallpa Pay cover equality, children, solidarity, health, biodiversity, and education.

Why does regular giving matter?
Predictable resources help charities plan their work, support beneficiaries and develop long-term projects.
Round-ups spread the effort over time. They do not replace other forms of giving; they add an accessible way to include generosity in existing habits.

Standard
€0.99 / month

€3.99 / month
