Sharefaith Releases Platform for Churches to Scale Tithing and Donations
Sharefaith announces the release of Sharefaith Giving, available today. With new research suggesting that only 15% of church-going Christians tithe, Sharefaith has the goal of partnering with churches to change that trend.
“We strongly believe in the Biblical principle of giving, and wanted to create a more convenient, simpler and more secure way for anyone to give.” said Hein van Wyk, CEO and President of Sharefaith.
Unlike other giving platforms, Sharefaith’s solution does not require church members to download an app to their phone. Rather, it gives church staff the ability to build and share giving forms on any web, mobile or social media platform. By sharing the auto-generated link, button or QR code, churches enable members to securely give in seconds. Giving forms also include the church’s identity so each church can invite their congregation to tithe and donate in a familiar place.
The tool also can be enabled for text-giving, an optional add-on for $10/m, that gives church members the opportunity to easily give during the service or special event. It’s easy to set up, maintain, and see reports.
“Through our partnership with churches, we know it’s not a one-size fits all model,” said van Wyk. “We’ve always made our tools scalable and Sharefaith Giving shares this focus. We’ve developed an approach that allows churches to customize the look, feel, and functionality of the tithing experience. We also built it on the expectation of security, transparency and accountability. As a result, churches have direct monitoring of funds and donors, time-based data exporting and direct integration with church management software such as Church Community Builder.”
In brief, Sharefaith Giving offers a better, simpler and more secure way for anyone to give.
Sharefaith Giving is part of a suite of award-winning solutions from Sharefaith, a ministry-minded team who has pioneered the realm of technology and innovation for churches and ministries around the globe for the past 15 years.
Implementation is easy with a current Sharefaith Plan because Sharefaith Giving is free to all current members, regardless of plan. Activation and enrollment is fast, simple and secure. For new members, a Sharefaith membership is required first, before activating the Sharefaith Giving.
