// one could get rewards from multiple businesses for
a single donation// if you've not VERY careful you'll
cause arbitrage resulting in people getting more than
they give to charities. |

I'm going to start a charity to give aid to the owners of bankrupt local coffee shops. |

No, if the coffee shop wants to support the relief effort, they should. If you and I want to, we should too. I think that more money would go to the actual people in need if we didn't make it so complicated. We don't need to spend money on this infrastructure, and loose money to fraud from people trying to work this system. [-] |

What's in it for the coffee shop? I can't see a reason why a business would participate. |

It will cost a lot of money to hire people to process these codes therefore defeating the pupose. Also, if you donated $25 and expect something back in return, then did you only really donate $20? |
