SUPPORT PRAGUE ZOO’S CONSERVATION PROJECTS BY USING OUR UNIQUE KIOSKS!

These kiosks were installed at Prague Zoo in cooperation with Mastercard and Ingenico. The devices were made-to-measure for Prague zoo, which is the first in the world to use them for donations. Visitors can find three of them in the zoo’s lower grounds - by the Educational Centre, the Gorilla Pavilion and the Felines and Reptiles Pavilion – and another two in the upper grounds – by the Indonesian Jungle Pavilion and Elephant Valley.

The touch screens provide visitors with lots of interesting facts about Prague Zoo’s in-situ projects as well as allowing them to make an instant donation of CZK 50, 100, 200, 300 or 499 to one of four projects. The projects are: The Return of the Wild Horses (Przewalski’s horses) to the wilds of Mongolia, The Wandering Bus (conservation of western lowland gorillas and other endangered species in Central Africa), the protection of the gharial on the Chambal River in India or the conservation of the critically endangered Laotian rock rat in Laos.

There are two ways to pay, by holding a contactless payment card above the touch screen, or by using the Masterpass digital payment service when scanning a QR code. Both payment methods are simple, safe and fast.

Everybody who makes a donation, regardless of the amount, automatically receives an instant signature from the animal concerned in the form of a sticker with a footprint. Moreover, those that contribute CZK 499 will also receive a link to an online documentary film about reintroducing the Przewalski’s horse to the Gobi Desert in Mongolia.
