Are crypto donations tax deductible?

Save the Children has a Deductible Gift Recipient 1 (DGR) status with the Australian Tax Office and will provide you with a tax receipt when you provide your email address.

The ATO considers cryptocurrency as an asset, so in some situations your donation will not be subject to capital gains and will be tax deductible.

We recommend consulting a qualified, professional tax advisor about your situation and the tax deduction benefits that apply to you, based on where you live and pay tax.
