Oktay Dogramaci, VP of Giving at PayPal shares what trends are on the horizon in the giving space and how the company is making it easier to give online.
Giving online no longer happens just on a charity’s website. It happens on Facebook, at checkout, on GoFundMe and a host of other places. One of those “places” is on PayPal. PayPal is using the power of its technology and network to grow generosity around the world.
In today’s episode, Engage for Good’s Alli Murphy is joined by Oktay Dogramaci, VP of Giving at PayPal. The duo dive into what PayPal does in the giving space, who their customers are, what their data says and how giving is built on top of the core PayPal model (instead of being a standalone program).
They also highlight PayPal’s new app which includes all the things you’re used to plus an exciting way to give.
