The short version

  • 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.; TouchPoint starts at 6000 USD annually, priced per active record (a household that donated once in 12 months or an individual who registered/attended twice) rather than a flat per-seat tier
  • They diverge on capability: easyTithe covers Online giving pages, TouchPoint covers Membership Management.

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.

TouchPoint

  • Starts at 6000 USD annually, priced per active record (a household that donated once in 12 months or an individual who registered/attended twice) rather than a flat per-seat tier

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.

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.

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.
