“How can a major humanitarian nonprofit modernise its digital donation infrastructure to maximise recurring donor revenue at scale?”
The Canadian Red Cross is a century-old humanitarian nonprofit that relies heavily on digital online donations from over 250,000 individual donors annually. In 2022-2023, it underwent a digital transformation of its fundraising infrastructure, consolidating fragmented tools by adopting Stripe Payments and Stripe Radar alongside Fundraise Up to modernise one-time and recurring gift processing. The embedded finance footprint is narrow — focused on payment acceptance and fraud prevention rather than banking, lending, or payroll products.
Canadian Red Cross processes payments through Stripe.
Canadian Red Cross is founded in 1896 and headquartered in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
