Give from the app
The Give tab (/app/donations) accepts one-time card gifts.
TL;DR
Tap Give, choose the fund and amount, decide whether to cover the fees, and tap Donate $X. On iPhone, Give opens Safari on your church’s giving page.
Before you start
- Your church must have online donations available. Otherwise the Give button does not appear and the screen shows Online donations unavailable.
- You need a card accepted by Stripe.
Steps (web or installed app)
- Tap Give in the bottom bar.
- Under Designation, choose the fund. To split the amount, use Add another fund.
- Under Select an amount, choose an amount or type one in Or enter custom amount.
- Keep Cover the fees on if you want the church to receive 100%. Review Donation, Fee, and Total.
- Tap Donate $X and complete payment on Stripe’s secure page.
On iPhone (native app)
- Tap Give in the app’s bottom bar. Safari opens your church’s giving page (
/give). - The first time in that browser you will see Give to your church. Enter the email you use for Ministrium in Email and tap Send code.
- Check your email, enter the 6-digit code, and tap Continue. If the code expired, use Resend code. If you prefer your password, use Sign in with my password instead.
- Your church’s giving form opens with the greeting Hi, {firstName}. Choose the fund and amount and complete payment on Stripe’s secure page.
- When you finish you will see Thank you, {firstName}!. Then return to the Ministrium app.
Next time, Give takes you straight to the form without a code. If you sign out of the app, you will be asked for a new code next time.
If your account is not linked to a church member yet, you will see “Your account isn’t linked to a member of this church yet.” and the Give as a guest option.
Inside the iPhone app, the Give tab of /app/donations shows the card To give, use the Give tab below.
Verification
After payment you will see Thank You! on Give (web or installed app) or Thank You for Your Generosity! on the giving page. A guest who gives from the public page (/give/<slug>) sees Thank You for Your Generosity!. The church will see the transaction in Finance.
Your gift then appears in the My giving history tab.
