Inquiries and Requests for Forms
Give by Credit Card
You can make a donation by specifying the recipient on the "Donation Form". Individuals can donate by credit card, UnionPay card, or Internet banking (Pay-easy), and corporations can donate by bank transfer.
The types of credit cards accepted are as follows
Schedule a Recurring Gift through Your Credit Card
We welcome monthly or yearly gifts of a fixed amount (starting with 1,000 yen), paid by credit card.
Please note:
・ It is not possible to make monthly or yearly gifts through online bank transfers (Pay-Easy). Online bank transfers are available only to those who have bank accounts in Japan.
・ If you would like to make a recurring gift, please pay by credit card.
[Support Plans]
We offer the choice of monthly or yearly gifts.
[Credit Cards]
We accept the following types of credit cards.
[Payment Dates]
・ Based on the terms and conditions of each credit card company, your gift will be paid for in the same way as other transactions using that card.
・ The payment date is usually a month or two after you use your credit card, but please confirm details on your credit card statement.
[Transaction Dates]
■ Yearly Support
The first transaction date is the date you sign up to give yearly support. Subsequent transactions are made on April 15 of the following fiscal year.
Please note: The fiscal year is from April 1 to March 31 of the following year. For example, if you sign up on March 1, the first transaction date is that same day (March 1), and the next transaction will be on April 15 that same calendar year.
■ Monthly Support
The first transaction date is the date you sign up to give monthly support. Subsequent transactions will be made at the end of each month (except for December, when transactions will be made on the 15th).
[Receipt and Copy of the Certificate of Tax-Deductible Donation]
■ Yearly Support
We will send you a receipt and a copy of the certificate of tax-deductible donation after we receive the payment from each credit card company. This will be a month or two after you sign up to give support.
For subsequent payments, the transaction will take place on April 15 of the following fiscal year, and we will send you the receipt and copy of the certificate a month or two after that.
■ Monthly Support
We will send you a receipt and a copy of the certificate of tax-deductible donation once a year in January, compiling all gifts we received from January to December of the previous year.
Please note: The date of the receipt will be the date when Waseda receives your gift through the credit card company, not the date you signed up or the date the credit card payment was made.
Please also note: If you first sign up on or after November 15, the receipt may be issued in the following year. In this case, any tax deductions will also apply to the following year.
