Customer Reviews
I have tried numerous solutions for my website needs and stumbled upon Online Church Solutions a few months ago. After talking with Mark, I felt the inexpensive commitment was worth trying yet another solution. When I did, I was amazed. I was able to completely rebuild our site (44 pages) in a matter of hours. After discussing with Mark the only small drawback I ran into, he redesigned the feature going far beyond what I had talked to him about.
If your church needs an easy tithing and donation solution, then our Text to Give Tool is exactly what you need. We provide you with 10-second or less giving: just text the amount and keyword (such as "50 youth" to your church or ministry's unique texting phone number (with your same area code, if available). Just sign up for a merchant account with our partner, no contract required. Your members' donations and tithes are secure, with all credit card info passing to the merchant account provider. These are using encrypted SSL forms hosted directly by them, plus tokenization for increased giving security.
