A Tailored Online Giving Tool Proven To Increase Generosity
While PayPal can send and receive payments, it wasn’t designed with the Church in mind, so it lacks the vast array of tools and features Church leaders, staff, and congregations need:
- Pushpay’s Donor Development Dashboard allows administrators to track individuals’ giving history, forecast recurring gifts and online donations, view new contributions, provide annual giving statements, and review transactions.
- Our platform empowers your congregants to contribute to a specific fund from their credit card or debit card so that they can give to the projects and ministries they feel most connected with.
- On average, churches that make full use of Pushpay’s giving solution see a 12% increase in donations and a 24% boost in recurring givers. What’s more, churches using both our ChMS and Giving Solutions see an average increase twenty-one times larger than their subscription cost.

Fully Customizable Branding On Your Giving App
Instead of a cold and impersonal tool, our customized giving app improves donor management and ensures your Church family feels connected through a digital experience that embraces everything that makes your Church unique:
- Our simple admin tools let you incorporate your colors, logos, and background imagery to ensure the heart of your church shines through.
- Pushpay is the only Church giving platform that offers custom Thank You notes, allowing you to tailor your message to which ministry an individual gave to and add a personal note of thanks.
- Our platform allows you to choose between several animations to acknowledge each gift from your congregants, as yet another (adorable!) way to say thank you.
The Power of Recurring Giving
A strong base of recurring givers helps you more accurately forecast your budget for annual operations and future ministry projects. Instead of hoping your members consistently make donations, Pushpay’s Recurring Giving feature allows regular gifts to be scheduled, which benefits your members and your administrative team:
- Pushpay makes Recurring Giving incredibly simple. Your members can set up their automatic gift in just moments, taking one more responsibility off their plate.
- Only Pushpay offers Recurring Suggestions, a feature that uses patent-pending A.I. and Machine Learning technology to gently encourage your congregation toward establishing good giving practices.
- If you already have recurring givers through a different giving solution, Pushpay’s Recurring Migration tools make transitioning them to our platform as easy and stress-free as possible.
- Pushpay customers using our online giving platform see a higher share of recurring giving compared to other giving solutions.
Over 80 Powerful Integrations
Pushpay maintains the breadth and depth of features your growing ministry needs. Our seamless integrations with popular church solutions like Checkr, Quickbooks, Mailchimp, Resi, PCO, Rock RMS and more have been proven to decrease administrative workload by as much as 65%.
