  • Reaching a quote requires contacting sales by phone

Tithe.ly

  • Card giving carries a 2.9% plus $0.30 fee, so every donation is reduced before it reaches the church
  • American Express is charged at 3.5% plus $0.30
  • ACH at 1% plus $0.30 makes small bank transfers proportionally expensive
