It captures the supporter who wants to give but has no coins.
Collection boxes, banners and pledge cards are printed for a campaign and reused for years. The platform behind them will change at least once in that time.
For fundraising teams who have already migrated giving platforms.

Fewer people carry cash every year, and collection tins now serve mostly as a symbol rather than a channel. Charities respond by printing a giving link onto boxes, banners and pledge cards, then discover that payment platforms merge, change their fee structure or retire a product line. Because fundraising print is produced in bulk by donated design time and stored between events, replacing it is genuinely difficult, and the giving link is the part most likely to break first.
Fundraising print is donated, bulk produced and stored for years between campaigns.

A code per venue or per event separates the results.

A large code on the stand aimed at the campaign page.

A code on printed material handed out at services or talks.
It reaches people at the point they are most persuaded.
Yes, if the printed code points at your own short link. When you migrate you repoint it once, and every tin, banner and pledge card already in circulation starts sending supporters to the new giving page.
They tend to raise a larger average gift while reaching fewer people, since scanning takes more commitment than dropping coins. Most organisations run both rather than replacing the tin, because the two reach genuinely different supporters.
Suggested amounts and a single-step checkout, with any regular giving option below rather than in front. Asking someone standing in a hall to create an account before giving is where the majority of scans are abandoned.
