The Predator Conservation Trust now have the facility to accept donations via our website. We have chosen to use Paypal for this service. Clicking on the donate button takes you to the Paypal secure website which will process the transaction.

If you would like to make a contribution, however small, to this vital work you can donate via Paypal using a credit card using the links below. Donations of £24 a year (just £2 per month) and over will receive our newsletters with updates on the projects we support (if you wish to receive them). Alternatively you can set up a standing order using the standing order form, or make a one-off donation by completing the donation form. Both forms include a gift aid declaration section for UK taxpayers.

If you already have a Paypal account, then you can pay using this. If you do not have a Paypal account then when you click on the donate button and visit the Paypal site, you will be prompted to create one - this is totally free. Paypal are part of eBay and are one of the most widely used internet payment companies, boasting over 40 million users worldwide.

Security

PayPal automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to theirs using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128-bits (the highest level commercially available). Before you even register or log in to the Paypal site, the server checks that you're using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher.

Once your information reaches Paypal, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. The Paypal servers sit behind an electronic firewall so your private information is secure.

Your credit card details are not passed to Predator Conservation Trust - these are processed by Paypal and the information is not shared with PCT.
