Are you thinking of SwipeGood (http://swipegood.com/)? I don’t know of any credit cards that do that, but several banks have a “save the change” option that rounds up purchases and puts the extra pennies into a nominated savings account. As far as I understand it (the “FAQ” link just sends me back to their homepage), SwipeGood links into those systems to donate the money to charities instead, minus a 5% commission.
Maybe. Googling the obvious key words lead me to their site but clicking on “FAQ” and “Charities” just sends me back to the main page.
In any case, this is something that can help increase donations. Or it might have a negative effect because people tend to think that they are already donating “enough”, so they do not need to do anything more.
