About Beam Impact

Beam Impact allows consumers to support charitable causes through their everyday purchases by linking their debit or credit cards to its platform. When users shop at partner brands, a portion of their spending is automatically donated to a nonprofit of their choice, at no extra cost. This model helps brands enhance their corporate social responsibility efforts while attracting socially-conscious customers. The goal of Beam Impact is to leverage consumer spending to drive charitable donations, benefiting consumers, brands, and nonprofits.
