GivrWay Company Profile, Contacts & Intelligence

GivrWay Overview

Co-founded by Adam Waites and Geoff Gourley, the GivrWay story is rooted in banking where we helped make the cashless economy a reality. As the technology advanced we started using cards more and more – happily tapping away, first with cards, and then with digital wallets. But while we were enjoying tap-tap-tapping, it became obvious that not everyone was having as much fun – the guys that sat outside Southern Cross station were collecting fewer and fewer coins from all the bankers (and others) that walked past them at the end of the day. The same issue was affecting buskers and street performers – “great show but sorry, I’ve got no cash”. Same problem for charities trying to connect with the community and raise much needed funds. It was obvious that something needed to be done to prevent the cashless society making their lives even more difficult, but it wasn’t easy to see what the answer was. Having worked closely with charities to provide electronic payment capabilities, we understood that technology solutions had a lot of benefits, but they also had significant challenges – payment devices can be expensive and tricky to manage. It’s clear that technology is the answer, but that the technology needs to be in the right place. Existing solutions put the technology burden on the recipient. We think it makes more sense to give the receiver a low tech way to connecting with the high tech gear we all carry – our smart phones. So bankers who helped create the issue are now trying to solve it, bringing spontaneous acts of kindness into the digital age through Social Innovation and Digital Giving.
