Vanco Giving gives churches tools to accept donations and engage their congregations. Its suite includes online giving, a mobile app, event registration and management, text-to-give, in-stream giving, and a mobile card reader. Donors can set recurring gifts through online, streaming, and text channels. Churches can customize giving pages with colors and logos, then link to or embed them on a website. Reports can organize donation and financial records by fund, member, payment type, and other categories. Online pages accept major debit and credit cards, as well as bank transfers or ACH. Vanco says it supports more than 60 church management systems, including ACS Technologies, Realm, Parish Data Systems, Church Windows, and Ministry Platform. GROW is 0.00 USD per month; card processing is 2.90% + $0.45 per transaction and ACH is 1.00% + $0.45. THRIVE is 54.00 USD per month; card processing is 2.65% + $0.39 and ACH is .90% + $0.39 per transaction. Plans are month to month with no contract or cancellation fees.
