Wikipedia already accepts donations through Apple Pay on its website

Today we cannot live without mobile devices, but neither can we live without the internet in general. A clear example of our dependence on the network is the Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that has largely replaced the old physical (and digital) encyclopedias to allow everyone access to your information. Reliable or not, it has an army of people who review the veracity of your information every day, so we can feel on neutral ground. Obviously in Wikipedia they have to live on something, on donations ... Now they have just updated their website allowing the payment of donations with Apple Pay.

A means of payment that at the moment is not available to everyone but that will undoubtedly make more people decide to checkout. In the donations section we will now see all the payment options, including Apple PayWith just a few taps we can decide to go to the checkout and make a donation of the money we want to Wikipedia using the cards stored in Apple Wallet.

How will they use our donations? Well, according to what they tell us on the website itself (non profit), part of the income goes to tecology: Servers, bandwidth, maintenance, development. Wikipedia is one of the most visited websites in the world, but it works with a fraction of the resources that other sites use. And another part of the income goes to their own platform employees: The other 10 most visited websites employ thousands of people. We just we have 550 employeesTherefore, your donation represents a great investment in a highly efficient non-profit organization. So now you know, if you believe in a medium like Wikipedia, come and contribute your grain of sand, so you will defend the freedom of information.
