CASE STUDY · ASSOCIATION / COMMUNITY

    Multilingual membership platform with EPC-QR sponsorship in one click.

    A cultural association wanted to make sponsorship accessible for a multilingual audience. We built a community platform where members can work in their own language, and every sponsorship contribution is received with one scan via SEPA transfer.

    THE CHALLENGE

    Asking for sponsorship shouldn't feel like a barrier or administrative burden.

    Donations were disorganised

    Amounts, messages, and IBAN had to be passed on manually. Incorrect references made accounting difficult.

    Two language groups, one platform needed

    Members spoke Dutch or Turkish. A monolingual approach always partially excluded one group.

    No material to share

    There was nothing to share on paper or social media that allowed people to contribute immediately.

    Member and child registration on paper

    Member registration was done via forms. Registration of children for educational lessons also happened on paper. All of that has been replaced, which saves at least 16 hours per week.

    Tools versus payment tools

    Separate payment providers meant fees, accounts, and extra bookkeeping. Far too much for a non-profit.

    OUR SOLUTION

    One multilingual platform with sponsorship via EPC-QR.

    We built a community platform with central settings (org, IBAN, BIC) and a sponsorship flow that generates an EPC-compliant QR code in real-time. Scanning with your banking app automatically fills in payee, amount, and message.

    EPC-QR generator

    Standard SEPA EPC payload with payee, IBAN, BIC, amount, and structured message. Works in every Belgian banking app.

    Sponsoring page

    Visitor chooses amount and message, immediately sees a QR code with all details correctly filled in.

    Download as PNG

    One click to download the QR as an image for flyers, social posts, or WhatsApp campaigns.

    Multi-language UI

    Fully translated (NL + TR), with i18n architecture allowing additional languages to be added without code changes.

    Centralised Org settings

    IBAN, name, and BIC are managed centrally. One place to update, automatically correct everywhere.

    Ready for member management

    Architecture set up for easy expansion to membership, events, and internal communication.
