More and more churches are exploring how their congregations can give beyond the offering plate. But deciding which digital company to use for these giving options is confusing! Here's some help.
Nearly all leading companies offer essentially the same giving services. These services include:
- Online Giving
- Text to Give
- Giving Kiosk
- Mobile App
- Automated Recurring Gifts
The biggest differences are found in pricing for monthly subscription plans and customer service. Here's an at-a-glance comparison of subscription rates from a few of the top digital giving platforms.

Our church ended up going with Vanco for our online giving. We called the company we got our church database software from (Servant Keeper) and that's who they suggested. Their customer service is very good and it integrates with our database so we can download transaction information for yearly totals and whatnot. I don't remember what the pricing information ended up being though.
