Payroll Giving

A simple and tax-free way to support animals monthly

Payroll Giving

What is Payroll Giving?

Payroll giving is the easiest and most efficient way to make a tax-free regular donation. It allows you to donate directly from your gross salary each month, before tax. All you have to do is complete a simple online form to start donating, and we’ll make sure your company operates a payroll giving scheme.

How does Payroll Giving work?

Your donation has a bigger impact for innocent animals.

You pledge £5 monthly to support ROLDA rescues

Actual costs to you:
a. standard rate tax payer: £4
b. higher rate tax payer: £3

ROLDA UK receives the full £5.

Benefits of Payroll Giving

It’s easy

Payroll giving is quick and simple to set up. All you need are your employment details and national insurance number to get started

It’s tax effective

Donate directly from your gross salary each month

It provides reliable support for animals

That payday feeling is even better, knowing you’re supporting hundreds of homeless, injured and abused dogs every month.

It’s secure

The Impact of Your Giving

Your gift goes even further with Payroll Giving. One meal for a dog costs just 12p.

If you sign up to give £5 a month, and you’re a basic-rate taxpayer, it will cost you just £4 – while ROLDA receives the full £5.

That extra £1 every month is enough to provide 8 meals for hungry dogs.

Over the course of a year, that’s 100 extra meals – simply because you chose Payroll Giving.

FAQs about Payroll Giving

When do my donations start?

Your first Payroll Giving donation will be made on your next payday unless you sign up just after your company’s payroll has been produced, in which case your first donation will be deducted on the following payday.

How does the tax relief work?

Your Payroll Giving donation is made up of two parts: your salary donation plus the tax you would have paid on that part of your salary had you not made a donation. For example, if you are a basic rate, 20%, taxpayer, to donate £10, only £8.00 would be deducted from your salary. £2.00 is the tax you would have paid on the £10, and that is paid to the charity. The tax effect means that, for the same net cost to you, ROLDA UK receives even more from higher-rate taxpayers. This tax element is paid directly to the charity. The charity does not have to claim it. It is, therefore, a very cost-effective way for us to receive donations.

How do I know that ROLDA UK have received my donation?

When donations start being taken from your salary they will appear on your payslip.

What should I do if my employer doesn’t currently have a Payroll Giving scheme?

That’s not a problem, fill out the form anyway and we can check for you. We’re also very happy to recommend an HMRC verified Payroll Giving Agency (PGA).

Can I change how much I am donating if I want to?

Yes, you can change how much you want to donate at any time. To change your donation amount, please contact your company’s payroll department.

Can I stop giving when I want?

Yes, all you would need to do is notify your payroll department.

When I leave my job, what happens to my Payroll Giving donation?

Your Payroll Giving donation will stop. If you work for another employer, contact the payroll department at your new workplace and tell them that you would like to make charitable donations via Payroll Giving. If you are retiring you might like to think about Payroll Giving from your pension. If you have a personal pension, ask your pension provider if they have a Payroll Giving Scheme and tell them you would like to join.

Can I give to more than one charity?

Of course! You can donate to as many UK-registered charities as you want to.

Can I Gift Aid my Payroll Giving donation?

No. It is a different system. If you give by Direct Debit you can Gift Aid it. With Payroll Giving, there is no need. Your donation is taken from pre-tax pay. The tax element is automatically taken care of. Payroll Giving is particularly effective if you are a 40% or 45% taxpayer. It ensures we receive all the tax relating to your donation.
