Electronic giving - What did we ever do without it.

We are very fortunate to be able to us Faithlife Giving. We hope to add additional features to our Faithlife Giving program as they become available.

PROS

Electronic giving has become an essential part of our church's stewardship program. There have been Sundays when electronic giving has almost equaled in person/by U.S. mail giving. Electronic giving was important before COVID. In the age of COVID, it is essential. Having access to giving records on one's Faithlife account is essential.

CONS

Our Senior Pastor is working with Faithlife staff to set up a mechanism so that we can take payment for events such as poinsettia purchases at Christmas and lily purchases at Easter.

Reason for choosing Faithlife Giving

We wanted to integrate our giving program into our overall Faithlife program.

Reasons for switching to Faithlife Giving

We wanted to integrate our giving program with the Faithlife program and our Faithlife website.

Good solution for Faithlife Users

This solution helped bring online giving to our church. It is not mainstream so it does require users to set up a new account to support repeat giving.

PROS

This integrates well with the Faithlife suite of products.

CONS

Does not work well with outside products or alternative ways of payment.

Reason for choosing Faithlife Giving

Connection to existing tools. Ease of implementation as an existing customer of Faithlife. Lower cost fees than some other options.

Worth your time to check out Faithlife giving

So far, we are pleased!

PROS

Easy to implement, less expensive to use than several other processing programs.

CONS

The $ transfer to my account is the same as other software. It would be very nice to see it in one day instead of two.

Reason for choosing Faithlife Giving

We are already in the faithlife family, and it was the same or better price point

Reasons for switching to Faithlife Giving

Already a Faithlife user, this option is much less expensive for us to use than our previous.
