The short version

  • Only eGiving has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: easyTithe the 500 record limit on the Pro plan makes its bundled church management unusable for any congregation above that size, so mid-sized churches end up paying for a separate ChMS anyway.; eGiving being rebranded to Amplify by Ministry Brands, so the eGiving name is on its way out and egiving.com redirects to ministrybrands.com
  • They diverge on capability: easyTithe covers Online giving pages, eGiving covers Online Giving.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

easyTithe

  • The 500 record limit on the Pro plan makes its bundled church management unusable for any congregation above that size, so mid-sized churches end up paying for a separate ChMS anyway.
  • Processing rates are higher than a church could negotiate directly with a merchant acquirer at volume, so large congregations giving over $25,000 a month should push for the discounted rate rather than accept published pricing.
  • It is one brand among many at Ministry Brands, and product investment has concentrated on the group's larger integrated platforms, so feature development here is slow.
  • The church management capability on Pro is thin next to Breeze or Planning Center, lacking real volunteer scheduling, service planning and child check-in depth.
  • A $10 monthly minimum applies regardless of activity, which is a small but real cost for a seasonal or plant church with quiet months.

eGiving

  • Being rebranded to Amplify by Ministry Brands, so the eGiving name is on its way out and egiving.com redirects to ministrybrands.com
  • Sold as part of a wider church management suite rather than as standalone giving software
  • Pricing is not published and requires a demo

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

easyTithe: Which plan is cheapest for us?

Do the arithmetic. The $19 plan at 3.00% and the $49 plan at 2.6% cross over around $7,500 of monthly card giving. Below that, take the cheap plan.

eGiving: How much does Ministry Brands eGiving cost?

Ministry Brands does not publish pricing for eGiving (now part of Ministry Brands Amplify). The vendor directs interested organizations to 'Book your demo' to discuss pricing based on organizational needs and the specific modules needed (People, Giving, Mobile App, Websites, Streaming, Accounting, Safety, Media, Communications).

Source
easyTithe: Can we get a better rate?

Yes, if you process more than about $25,000 a month. easyTithe states that higher volume churches can qualify for reduced transaction rates on request.

eGiving: What is the eGiving pricing model?

Ministry Brands uses a custom, contact-based pricing model where costs depend on which modules an organization adopts and its specific requirements. Pricing is discussed individually with their sales team rather than through published rate cards.

Source
easyTithe: Does the Pro plan replace our church management software?

Only for churches under 500 records, and even then it is a light database rather than a full ChMS.

easyTithe: What is the cheapest way to receive a gift?

ACH at 1.00% plus $0.42 on every plan. Moving recurring givers off cards is the single largest saving available.
