FAQ's about Giving Online 

These are some questions and corresponding answers that we think will be beneficial to potential questions or concerns you may have. If you still have questions, please contact us and we will try to help as soon as possible. 

Is it safe to give online?

Yes. In many ways giving online is safer than writing a check because an electronic gift cannot be lost or stolen. The security of the system is continually managed by CDM+ Engage.

What type of bank accounts can I give from?

You can give online from your checking account, MasterCard, Visa, or Discover Card.

Are there fees involved with giving online?

Not to you. You will not pay any fees with an online gift. In addition, online gifts are a more cost efficient way for the church to process donations.

Can I make a one-time contribution?

Yes. The system allows you the option of either making a one-time contribution or setting up a recurring contribution. For a one-time contribution, you can designate that the contribution should be made immediately or, for both one-time and recurring contributions, you can schedule the contributions to come out of your bank account on the date(s) specified by you.

If I want to set-up a recurring gift, what are my options for frequency of my gift?

For recurring gifts, you have the option of giving weekly, twice a month, every two weeks or once a month.

Can I change my personal information or the frequency of my gift once I have set it up?

Yes. You can change or cancel your contribution at any time before the date of your next contribution. Simply log in to the system using your user name and password and make the necessary changes in the system.

Yes. The church will continue to send year-end contribution statements to your address on file for tax purposes.

When will contributions be taken from my account?

Contributions will be taken from your specified bank account within 48 business hours of the date you requested. This time frame allows time for the contribution to process through your bank and the church’s bank. If the date of your contribution falls on a weekend or a holiday, the transaction will be initiated on the next banking day.

Can I designate my gift to a particular cause?

Yes, you can designate your gift. There is a drop down box to choose which fund you would like your offering to go to.

Immediately after submitting your contribution, you will receive an e-mail verifying your contribution.

No. Any browser will work.

Will I be able to give to special DCOG campaigns online?

During times when these campaigns are occurring, you will be able to give a one-time contribution to support the given initiative or campaign.

Can I use a debit card?

You can use a debit card from Visa or MasterCard, but true debit check cards are not accepted through the Churchteams system due to the sensitivity of securely requesting a Personal Identification Number (PIN). ACH bank drafts can be used instead for true debits
