About Gift Aid
Gift Aid is HMRC's scheme for UK charities. When a donor who pays UK Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax makes a Gift Aid declaration, the charity claims back the basic rate tax they paid on the gift: 25p for every £1, at no cost to them.
Your donation links and the donations added to Tickets ask donors for a declaration in HMRC's own words, with their home address and postcode, and keep it with the gift. Your reports show how much you can claim, and the Gift Aid schedule exports the donations in the columns HMRC's Charities Online asks for, to upload with your claim.
Gift Aid is for donations in pounds sterling only: a payment for a Ticket or anything else in return isn't a gift, so it can't be claimed on. Your charity needs to be registered with HMRC for Gift Aid, with its HMRC charity reference, before you claim.
