Company Giving
Manage your Company Charitable Giving Wisely
Our Company Giving account is designed for those who make donations to charity from a company fund rather than from their personal account. Philanthropy-minded company directors use this approach to benefit from the tax relief towards their company’s corporation tax liability. Download the full brochure.
- No more compliance and paperwork hassles. Save time and effort when you direct your giving through a single convenient platform. There’s no need to collect and file details of individual donations to multiple charities. Plus, leave the due diligence to us.
- Park funds until you’re ready to allocate them. Deposit your charitable funds into your AAC company account monthly, at the end of the financial year, or whenever you wish. This gives you time to decide who the ultimate recipients will be and when to donate to them.
- Tax relief on international donations too. Receive tax relief on all of your donations – even if the recipient charity is located abroad.
- Get clarity. With our highly renowned online platform, you’re always just one click away from your next donation and report. Stop struggling with inflexible systems and fragile spreadsheets.
- Safe giving. You’ll feel at ease, knowing every charity you can donate to on your AAC account is a legitimate charity that’s been through meticulous scrutiny by our compliance team. Our team performs rigorous and regular checks on everyone of the 3,000+ charities on our online portal, both in the UK and abroad. Larger donations are also subject to specific compliance checks.

This commission goes directly to administrative costs, including compliance procedures, charity checking and report filing.
