Wonder how much, if any, of the donation goes to the company processing the transaction. (like with credit cards)

Where is that planet smashing asteroid? Getting tired of waiting for it.

The donation goes into an account which is managed by a case worker who ensures that the money is spent on agreed targets, such as saving for a rental deposit or a new passport.

So, instead of giving cash directly to a homeless person, you get to put funds in a slush fund that will be "managed" (skimmed).

The left wants, and is working for, a society in which some a$$holes have jobs, and some privileged individuals don’t, and in which money is automatically taken from the workers and given to the indolent.
It’s called communism but they don’t use the name.

And what’s to prevent someone from recruiting others (maybe for a joint or bottle of wine) to wear the same medallion in shifts, 24/7, to make a killing and gig the system? Guaranteed this will happen.

Homeless people wearing barcodes

I was once jogging around Washington Square Park in the late 80s, early in the morning, and there was a homeless vagrant in a sleeping bag. As I came around a second time, his alarm clock went off, and he got up....

I never give to beggars. If someone else wants to...shrug.

I hate it when panhandlers come up to me on the street and ask me to scan them.

Charity becomes a business, and business is good. Just ask the Clinton Foundation.
