MasterCard Is Offering COMMUNITYcash Program

MasterCard has entered into an agreement with Nietech Corp. to give MasterCard cardholders the ability to convert accumulated rewards points into cash donations for the nonprofits and schools of their choice.

The program, known as COMMUNITYcash, is available to all MasterCard credit and debit card issuers in the U.S.

The accumulated points can be redeemed as cash rewards and directed to up to three nonprofits and/or schools of the cardholder's choice.

"Nietech's technology platform puts to bed 'fundraising fatigue' by electronically linking cardholders with the nonprofits and schools they want to support," said Barbara Rambo, CEO, Nietech Corp.
