Payroll Giving in Action (PGA) has launched a smartphone-friendly payroll donation service called Go Mobile.

Owners of smartphone devices, including iPhone, Blackberry and HTC, can access the online giving initiative, which allows employers to create and promote their own payroll giving website to employees.

The site can be shared with employees electronically or via a quick response code.

Jeremy Colwill, founder and director of Payroll Giving in Action, said: “Giving online is already the easiest way for employers and employees to support their favourite charities on a regular and tax-free basis.

“With Go Mobile we have now made this service fully compatible with all smartphone devices, meaning that staff can donate to charity anywhere, any time, quickly and securely.

“With the increasing uptake of smartphones having a direct effect on the use of mobile internet, we believe the service represents a fantastic new arena for charities to benefit from payroll giving.”
