Online Giving

The Giving module takes contributions inside ChurchNET, processed through Stripe.

Before members can use it, an administrator has to set it up.

Making a gift​

  1. Open Giving.
  2. Choose the fund you're giving to — General, Benevolence, Building, or whatever your church has set up.
  3. Enter the amount. The minimum is $1.00; anything lower is refused with Minimum donation is $1.00.
  4. Complete the payment.

You'll see Thank you for your gift! when it goes through. If the card is declined you'll get Payment failed with the reason from the card issuer.

Recurring giving​

You can set a gift to repeat rather than remembering it each month.

Setting one up takes you out to Stripe to authorize it — you'll see Redirecting to complete recurring giving setup... on the way.

Managing a recurring gift​

Your recurring gifts are listed with their Fund and Next payment date. Someone with none set up sees No recurring giving set up.

To stop one, choose to cancel. You'll be asked Cancel Recurring Giving? with the choice to Keep it or Cancel Giving. Confirming reports Recurring giving canceled.

Cancelling stops future payments. It doesn't refund gifts already made.

Giving history​

Giving History lists your contributions, each showing the amount, the date, the fund, and the payment method. Recurring gifts are marked with a Recurring tag.

Before you've given anything it reads No donations yet.

This is your record, not a tax statement

Giving History shows what the app recorded. For a year-end contribution statement, ask the church office.
