Every $10 donation is one entry. Ten donations on one card is ten entries, and every card you add earns more.

What is Paze?
Paze is an online checkout wallet built by the big US banks (Chase, Bank of America, Capital One, Citi, PNC, Truist, U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo and more). There is no app to download and no account to create. Your eligible credit and debit cards are already in it, and you unlock them at checkout with the email or phone number on file with your bank. Amex cards are not in Paze.
How to donate $10 with Paze
- Click Donate $10 with Paze.
- Enter your first name, last name and email address on the checkout page.
- Under Select payment method, choose Paze.
- Enter the email address or mobile number your bank has on file for you, then enter the one-time code your bank sends. If Paze says no wallet found, try the other one — your bank may have an older address.
- Paze shows your eligible cards with this banner at the top of the Paze window: If you see that banner, your donation qualifies. Pick a card. No banner means no credit — check it every time you switch cards.
- Click Pay $10.00. You'll get a green checkmark and an emailed receipt.
- Come back to this page and do it again. Each donation is a separate $10 checkout. Ten $10 donations on one card can earn $100 back on that card.
Have more than one card? Every eligible card in your Paze wallet earns its own 10 credits. Switch cards at step 5.
If checkout errors out after about 6 donations
That's normal and it isn't broken. Clover often errors after roughly 6 payments in a row on the same card. Your earlier donations went through — check for the receipt emails. Switch to another card and keep going. The first card usually works again after 1 to 2 days, so come back before September 10.
Every eligible card, up to 10 times, through September 10.
Setting up Paze the first time
Most people need to do nothing — if your bank participates, your cards appear automatically at step 5. If a card is missing, add it from your bank's app or website.
- Chase: Chase app → More → Digital Wallet → Paze, and add each card.
- Bank of America, Capital One, Citi, PNC, Truist, U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo: log in, search "Paze," and turn on each card. Make sure the email and phone on your bank profile match what you type at checkout.

Where your $10 goes
Lev Teen Center is where teens go when they need somewhere to be. Some nights that is a table, a sefer, a friend and something to eat, well past the hour anyone else is still open.
Other times it is putting a busload of them on dirt bikes in the desert — because a kid who feels written off changes when someone spends real money proving he is not.
FAQ
Will I really get $10 back?
The credit comes from Paze under its "Spend $10, Get $10 Back" offer, not from Lev Teen Center. Paze's published exclusions are gambling, pharmacies, financial services, adult content, guns, government fines, political fundraising, medical services and a few specialty categories. Charitable donations are not on that list, and our Paze checkout shows the offer banner, which is Paze confirming the donation counts. Paze can change merchant categories at any time, so we cannot guarantee a credit. Read the terms at paze.com/offers.
When does the credit post?
Paze says within 2 billing cycles. Many people see credits within days, some wait weeks. It appears on your card statement as a credit, not as a discount at checkout.
Do I have to donate exactly $10?
No. The credit is $10 per qualifying transaction of $10 or more. A $9.99 donation does not qualify, which is why the button is fixed at $10. Ten separate $10 donations earn ten credits; one $100 donation earns one — so if you want to give more, give $10 at a time.
Can I use several cards?
Yes. Each eligible card earns up to 10 credits. Debit and credit cards from participating banks both qualify.
Do I need a Paze account or app?
No. Paze is built into your bank. You verify with a one-time code from your bank at checkout.
Is it secure?
Paze never shares your card number with us, and Clover, our payment processor, hosts the checkout page. We only see your name, email and the amount.
Will I get a receipt?
Yes, an emailed receipt arrives after each donation. Lev Teen Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. No goods or services are provided in exchange for your donation.
Is my donation tax deductible?
Lev Teen Center is a 501(c)(3), so donations are generally deductible. Because Paze may credit you $10 back, please consult your tax advisor about how that affects your deduction.
The Paze button is not showing at checkout.
Use a regular mobile or desktop browser, not an in-app browser inside WhatsApp or Instagram. Make sure you clicked through to the Clover checkout page. If it still doesn't appear, email us a screenshot.
Can I donate $10 ten times in a row?
Yes. Finish one checkout, return to this page, click the button again. Some banks send a new one-time code each time.
