Collecting donations during Ramadan: Iftar, Zakat and Sadaqah.
For many mosque communities and Muslim relief organizations, Ramadan is the most important time of the year for donations. More people come to prayer and to Iftar – and many want to give. With a donation terminal this works without cash, too.

Where people give during Ramadan
- At the shared Iftar – at the entrance or at the food counter.
- After Tarawih prayer at the exit.
- At Friday prayer along the rows – with the mobile Dayaa Go.
- Around the clock at the entrance – with the Dayaa Wall or the donation kiosk Dayaa Tower.
Separate campaigns for every purpose
In the Dayaa Management Platform create a separate campaign for every purpose – for example Iftar donations, Zakat, Sadaqah or a relief project – and send it to the devices. You decide the texts on the screen yourself, also in Arabic or Turkish. You see every donation in real time and separately by campaign.
Prepare in good time
So that everything is running for Ramadan, the devices should be ordered a few weeks in advance: delivery is in person and pre-configured, usually within 7–14 days. More on mosques: Donations in the mosque and Mosques & Islamic organizations.
