Register to receive donations

Register your organisation to receive 10-cent container refunds from your supporters. Your organisation becomes a donation partner. You will receive an ID to share with your community, so they can donate to you.

How to register

Step 1

Register with CDS Vic
Obtain your donation partner ID by completing our registration form. You will require a valid ABN.

Step 2

Activate your donation partner ID with your local zone operator so you can receive donated refunds. Statewide organisations may wish to activate with all three zone operators.

Step 3

Share your donation partner ID
Share your ID with your supporters so they can donate their 10-cent refunds to your organisation at refund points or through their zone operator app.

Start sharing your cause

Once you’re registered let everyone know, so they can support your organisation.
