Online giving is an easy, safe and
convenient option. It is not replacing the traditional ways we have
always given!
Each of you should give what you have
decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under
compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to
bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having
all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
2 Corinthians 9:7-9

Online
giving is not replacing any of the traditional ways we
already give, but is an additional option to those who
prefer to make their donations by computer, cell phone,
or other mobile device. College Street is using a church
donation system provided by the EasyTithe
corporation. EasyTithe is church specific and is
currently used by hundreds of churches across the
nation.
You can
make a regularly scheduled contribution or you can
specify recurring donations. You can specify whether the
contribution should go to the general budget or to
designated categories. A credit card (MasterCard, Visa,
or Discover) or a debit card can be used, as well as a
regular checking account. The process is secure and
confidential and you will have continual access to your
giving records.
What is Online Giving? Online Giving is a direct
payment program whereby your contribution is debited
automatically from your checking, savings, or credit
card account into your church's bank account.
What are the advantages
of Online Giving? Aside from being convenient, it
makes it easier to fulfill stewardship commitments, even
when you are unable to attend church. It can help your
consistency and faithfulness in giving. Also, it
eliminates the need to bring cash or to write checks to
church. Also, a complete record of your giving is
available to you online 24 hours per day.
Is Online Giving secure? Yes, all
account information you enter is secure. No one has
access to your data unless authorized by you. Also, when
you login, look for a little "locked padlock" icon in
your browser's address bar. EasyTithe is a PCI
Compliant Class 1 service provider. PCI, or PCI DSS
stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.
It was developed by the major credit card companies
(Visa, MasterCard, etc…) as a guideline to help
organizations that process card payments prevent credit
card fraud, hacking and various other security
vulnerabilities and threats.
How much does Online Giving cost? It costs you
nothing and saves you time. The fee to the church is
nominal.
What if I change bank accounts or credit/debit
cards? You can update your profile and banking
information for recurring giving at any time. Simply
login and update your account information.
What if I try Online Giving and don’t like it?
You can cancel your authorization by deleting your
accounts and donation dates.
