Frequently Asked Questions
Should we use a church-specific platform?
For donations and recurring giving, dedicated platforms (Tithe.ly, Pushpay) often work better than general POS. Use Square or similar for bookstore sales and event registrations.
What fees should churches expect?
Most processors charge 2.2-2.9% for nonprofits. Some church-specific platforms offer lower rates. ACH/bank transfers cost 0.5-1% and are better for larger donations.
