What a CDC Foundation gift card actually does
A CDC Foundation gift card is a charitable donation instrument. The recipient redeems the card and 85% of the face value is directed to the CDC Foundation, the independent 501(c)(3) chartered by Congress to back the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The remaining float covers issuance and the registered third-party charity rail that handles redemption inside the US.
So when you pay in crypto on uSwap, you’re not buying retail credit — you’re funding outbreak response, vaccine equity programs, lab capacity, and the field epidemiology work that sits behind the CDC. The card lands as an email code, the recipient follows the redemption link, picks the cause, and the dollars route to the foundation.
Why pay for the donation in crypto
People holding BTC, ETH, USDT, XMR, SOL and similar assets often want to give without first converting on a centralized exchange — that path triggers a taxable disposal, KYC paperwork, and bank-wire delays that defeat the purpose of an end-of-year or emergency-response gift.
Paying directly with crypto on uSwap is faster. You pick the card amount, send any of 30+ supported assets, and the recipient gets a redeemable code in their inbox. The donation is timestamped the same day the swap confirms. For donors who hold privacy-preserving assets like Monero, this is also the cleanest way to convert a quiet stash into a public-good outcome without an exchange account in between.
Crypto-to-card pricing, plainly
uSwap charges 0% on the crypto side. There is no spread baked into the swap quote and no platform fee skimmed from the asset you send. The engine routes your payment across the cheapest path it can find and quotes you the real number.
The spend side — the gift-card leg — carries a small retail markup that the issuer sets. That markup is what funds the engine and keeps the crypto side at zero. We surface the all-in price before you confirm, so the cost to mint a $50 CDC Foundation card is shown in your chosen asset with no surprise at the bridge step.
Use cases worth being specific about
End-of-year giving is the obvious one — donors clearing positions before a tax cutoff who want the donation recorded in the current calendar year. Memorial and honor gifts are another natural fit: a fixed-amount card sent in someone’s name, redeemable at the recipient’s discretion.
Corporate giving programs and crypto-native DAOs also use these cards to disburse charitable budgets without standing up a custodian relationship with a foundation. And in the wake of any acute public-health event, the CDC Foundation runs targeted response funds. Crypto donations through a gift card hit those funds without the donor needing to register, off-ramp, or hand over a passport.
US redemption, no account on either side
CDC Foundation gift cards are issued for US redemption — the recipient lands at the charityontop.org redemption page and routes the donation through the US 501(c)(3) rail. The code itself works anywhere with a browser, but the destination charity is the US foundation.
On the uSwap side there is no account to create. You land on the brand page, choose a denomination, send crypto to the address shown, and the code arrives at the email you specify. The bridge URL we generate is persistent — bookmark it and one address handles every future swap from this device, including future donation cards.
