YOUR CHOICES FOR SERVICE PROVIDERS

Online Tithing services are provided by third-party companies that are not part of our direct supervision and scope of responsibilities. All of the services providers we recommend come with good customer satisfaction experiences. They are all able to accept major credit cards, debit cards and online check transactions. They can all accept one-time donations as well as recurring donations (weekly or monthly).

However, we do not warranty their services and we are not responsible for any transactions made through them. All we can do is recommend several companies that we know are some of the leading service providers in the industry. In the end, the choice is yours to pick the one that best meets the needs of your parish.

1. PAYPAL. They are the leading and most trusted provider of online payment services on the internet today. Anyone who has done online shopping is aware of Paypal. They consistently show a very high perceived consumer confidence rating. They charge an average of about 2.9% for each transaction. You can find more information about them at www.paypal.com.

2. GOOGLE CHECKOUT. This company is the most recognizable brand name on the internet and comes with very high consumer confidence ratings. Another advantage they offer is free processing fees for all 501(c)3 institutions until 2009.

3. PARISHPAY, LLC. This company is one of the leading online tithing companies that deal with Catholic parishes. We recommend that you look at their pricing structure to have a better understanding of the fees involved. They also provide a better account management interface that is specifically designed for parishes. Click here to read more about it.

The choice is yours. Once you've made up your mind, all we do is initiate the programming of the link from our website to their payment processing web portal.
