!INFORMATION ABOUT THE ONLINE PAYMENT FACILITY
%%(color:red)
The Bank has asked that anyone using the online facility MUST NOT use a corporate card (for example a University or Institute card) – UNLESS it has a personal name on the card (not just the name of the institute or department). Corporate cards may be rejected. It is therefore better to use a personal card.

\\
*The __online payment facility__ (use the Donate button above) is hosted by the Academia Europaea bank - The Charities Aid Foundation (CAF). This is a specialist Bank. It is also, itself, a UK registered charity.

*The Bank provides us with support to process your membership payment and also any general donations.

*The payment form is hosted on the Banks own secure server not the Academy server and is therefore completely safe. The Bank will send you an __email receipt__ when your payment has been correctly submitted. It will be sent to the email address entered when making the transaction.

*The payment will appear on your credit or debit card statement as ‘Donate via CAF Internet’. But please be assured, the payment will reach us. 

*__NOTE: If you are a UK based member and pay tax in the UK, then please "Gift Aid" your payment.__
