World Vision deploys a secured payment gateway on our website which automatically converts donors' credit card details into “unique token ID” for our internal records.

This enhances the security level for our donors as this means that your credit card information is only transmitted, processed and stored by the secured payment gateway which is compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).

World Vision regularly reviews developments in security and encryption technologies and we will take reasonable steps to keep your information secure by having safe systems in place.

Recurring deductions are also automatically processed via the payment gateway based on the preferred donation frequency indicated when you make a recurring donation.

If you are not comfortable with recurring donations taking place automatically without advance notification, you can choose to give a one-time donation for 3, 6 or 12 months of the monthly pledge amount. We can then send you a reminder letter to make the next one-time donation.
