Naturally to do that one task requires that we do a multitude of functions behind the curtain so that you don't have to worry.
We provide your church with a secure dedicated site for your donations. For example let's say that a church named "Northside Christian" has its website at www.northsidechristian.org . Master Tithe will supply your church with a secure site like secure.northsidechristian.org . It works with your existing site with no change except to add a button to link your members to the tithing site.
Why is this important? Most online giving systems take your
members AWAY from your site. Who wants, "Tithing at PayPal?" Leaving your
site to go to some PayPal type collections company doesn't inspire the
confidence of your members. These church leaders then wonder why giving
doesn't increase. Master Tithe provides a site that bears your
domain name and your church logo (brand). Your members know and trust
their church and are much more likely to give when they see their church
domain name on
the site and can inspect the certificate to see that it belongs to their
church.
It is the relationship factor. It happens this way, your member says
to himself, "I know my church so I'll give to my church." versus
"I know my church but I'm not sure about giving to XYZ.com. I think I'll
just do it later." When your member starts to question you loose.
Our primary business is to enable you to accept online donations additionally we have a full feature hosting system because our clients have requested it.
