Fast and friendly funds disbursement
How it works
We begin every partnership finding out about your organisation and how we can support you and your beneficiaries. Our expert team then develop a bespoke distribution solution for you, and work quickly and efficiently to put these actions in place.
We’ve distributed funds through prepaid cards, gift cards & digital codes that can be used at all major supermarkets and popular retailers. By providing food, shopping, fuel and school lunch vouchers in this way we find that recipients are more likely to use the money on goods they need – rather than funds getting lost on overdraft payments.
Our fast, reliable and scalable Payments for Good solutions
Digital Codes
Select is our online platform that delivers codes electronically to your recipients. Codes are then swapped for gift cards or eGifts from a wide range of retailers, including supermarkets.
Open Loop Prepaid Cards
Prepaid cards are ideal for helping people pay for fuel, or when you need to distribute a large number of cash funds. Our Prepaid Mastercard® can be used anywhere that Mastercard® is accepted and is available as a single load or reloadable card.
Multi-Retailer Gift Cards
Our One4all gift card can be spent at a wide range of retailers nationwide, in-store and online. Retail sectors that accept our popular gift card include restaurants, home and clothing.

We’ve partnered with a growing number of charities and non-profit organisations, including the Licensed Trade Charity (LTC), who support people in the hospitality industry when they go through a difficult patch.
LTC’s Grant Manager kindly commented on our partnership:
“In less than a week we received over 3,000 applications in a 48-hour period, that volume is what we usually deal with in a year. It meant we needed to send out –eCodes really quickly to ensure people were not in financial hardship for too long. We were very impressed with the transparency, honesty and friendly approach that the Blackhawk Network team took to ensure that the project would go smoothly.”
