  • Only eGiving has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: eGiving being rebranded to Amplify by Ministry Brands, so the eGiving name is on its way out and egiving.com redirects to ministrybrands.com; Pushpay Church App pricing page lists Core, Advanced and Complete tiers with no dollar figures shown, directing buyers to request a demo or call 1-844-PUSHPAY for a quote
  • They diverge on capability: eGiving covers Online Giving, Pushpay Church App covers Announcements.
