Jumah Pay

What Jumah Pay does

Jumah Pay is a UK-based online charity platform operated by The Web Address JP Ltd, headquartered at 71-75 Shelton Street in Covent Garden, London. The company provides a mobile-first donation platform that connects individual donors with verified charitable campaigns, with particular focus on Islamic charitable giving including Zakat, Sadaqah, and Fitrana. The platform serves two primary customer segments: individual Muslim donors seeking convenient mobile-based giving experiences, and charities/NGOs seeking online fundraising capabilities. Secondary targeting extends to mosques and religious institutions requiring construction, repair, and operational funding.

The underlying technology is built on Firebase for authentication (supporting Google Sign-In and Apple Sign-In), GPS for real-time campaign discovery, and QR code scanning for account access and campaign engagement. The platform comprises five core products: the JumahPay Mobile App (iOS/Android), the JumahPay Online Donation Platform (web portal), a Fundraising Portal for charity onboarding, a Gift Aid Processing Service for UK tax reclamation, and a Donor Portal for account management. Payment processing is enabled through Google Pay and Apple Pay. The company claims compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and PCI DSS standards.

The business model is transaction-based, with charities registering free of charge and the platform recouping costs through a 5% service fee plus 2.9% charity admin fee on donated amounts. An additional revenue mechanism involves claiming UK Gift Aid (25% basic rate tax relief) on eligible donations on behalf of charities, with the platform deducting its fee from the reclaimed amount monthly. The platform supports six currencies (USD, GBP, EUR, PKR, AED, SAR), enabling international donations across UK, US, Europe, Pakistan, UAE, and Saudi Arabia. Go-to-market combines a product-led self-serve motion (free charity registration, mobile-first UX) with community-led acquisition through mosques, Islamic centers, and word-of-mouth within Muslim donor networks. The company holds a registered "Jumahpay" trademark and operates without disclosed external funding, suggesting a bootstrapped, founder-led operating model.

Direct peers

• LaunchGood: LaunchGood is a crowdfunding platform purpose-built for Muslim creators and causes worldwide, offering Zakat, Sadaqah, and project fundraising. It is the closest direct competitor to Jumah Pay in Islamic charitable giving, targeting the same Muslim diaspora donor base with a similar fee-based model.
• Funraise: Funraise is a nonprofit fundraising platform providing donation forms, CRM, and campaign tools with transaction-based pricing. It targets the same charity and NGO fundraising market that Jumah Pay serves, with overlapping donor-experience features.
• GiveButter: GiveButter is a free online fundraising platform for nonprofits with zero platform fees and optional donor tipping. It competes for the same small-to-mid nonprofit segment and offers a fee alternative that pressures Jumah Pay's 7.9% take rate.
• JustGiving: JustGiving is a UK-headquartered online fundraising platform for charities and individuals. It directly competes with Jumah Pay in the UK charitable giving space and operates a similar take-rate revenue model on donations, including Gift Aid processing.
• Donorbox: Donorbox is a recurring donation platform for nonprofits, offering online forms, campaign pages, and payment processing with a SaaS-plus-transaction-fee model. It competes with Jumah Pay for the same nonprofit charity segment seeking online fundraising infrastructure.
• GlobalGiving: GlobalGiving is a nonprofit crowdfunding platform connecting donors with vetted charitable projects worldwide. Comparable as a donation marketplace targeting both individual donors and registered NGOs with a take-rate revenue model.

Others

• Islamic Relief Worldwide: Islamic Relief is a major international Muslim humanitarian organization with its own donation infrastructure for Zakat and Sadaqah. It is comparable as a faith-based charity with established donor relationships, representing a potential integration partner or direct competitor on the charity side of the marketplace.
• Muslim Aid: Muslim Aid is a UK-based international NGO running its own Zakat, Sadaqah, and emergency appeals programs. It is comparable as an Islamic charitable organization capturing donations directly rather than through a platform, representing both a potential partner and a competitor for donor dollars.
• Penny Appeal: Penny Appeal is a UK-based Muslim charity running international humanitarian and development programs with online donation capabilities. Comparable as a UK-anchored Islamic charity with direct donor relationships and campaigns overlapping Jumah Pay's core use cases.

Broad incumbents

• GoFundMe: GoFundMe is the largest global crowdfunding platform with a broad personal-cause and charity focus. While not faith-specific, it competes for the same donor wallet on charitable campaigns and benefits from far greater scale, brand recognition, and international reach.
