Humble Bundle has reversed its controversial decision to remove charity sliders from its bundle pages – a move that would have significantly reduced the percentage of payments players were able to donate charity.<\/p>\n

Humble Bundle has long permitted customers to choose how they want to split their bundle payments between a charity, a game’s publisher, and Humble Bundle itself, even allowing them to donate 100% of their money to charity if they so choose – a split determined by shifting a number of sliders.<\/p>\n

It’s a system that’s so far helped Humble Bundle raise a whopping $195m USD<\/a> (around \u00a3140m) for charity over the decade it’s been in operation. Last month, however, the company announced it would be doing away with bundle sliders<\/a> (and admitted it had already quietly removed them for some users back in March as a “test”), replacing them with a toggle system offering a fixed payment split instead – a move the company said it was making to bring its bundle pages “more in line with how our other products support charity”.<\/p>\n
