Political party donations from consumer goods sales

摘要

A computer-implemented method for causing a donation to be made to a political party. The method includes receiving, from each of a plurality of consumers, order data indicative of a desired consumer transaction and a proposed donation to a political party; consummating the desired consumer transaction; on the basis of the order data, determining a donation amount for the proposed donation; for each political party, periodically determining a proposed accumulated donation amount to that political party, the accumulated donation amount being determined at least in part on the basis of proposed donations from the plurality of consumers; and consummating the proposed donations on behalf of the consumers to the extent permitted by a donation cap on accumulated donations to the political party.
