A couple of years ago, an alternative to PayPal was sought after for my church to make online giving less complicated. Givelify helped us out, and also it's great when you need to check on how much you give, if you want the same amount of donations to recur, and if you want to check information for tax purposes. Cons There aren't too many cons about the software. Again it's simple and easy to use. Switched from [PayPal](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/) Though I and a few other church members were okay with using PayPal, majority of the church members were not and found it complicated. When Givelify was introduced, many church members found it easier to use. I volunteer as the technology coordinator for my church. Whenever church members came for assistance with paying online, I found showing them around Givelify was easier than with PayPal. Review Source CS Cedric S. CEO Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The futuristic way to give" August 27, 2021 5.0 This has definitely provided a more convenient and secure way for everyone to give. If this was a difficult platform then most people would be discouraged. Fortunately that was not the case for us! Pros Givelify revived the finances of our ministry. Since Covid-19, a large chunk of the congregation remained at home and had no way to bring their donations to the church. Now everyone is able to give from the comfort of their home at any time. This has also helped the in person members remain socially distant since they can give from their seat as well. Cons An improvement to the system would be a way to break the total amount you desire to give into different categories when needed. You literally have to make different transactions if you desire to give in multiple areas. Switched from [Cash App](https://www.capterra.com/p/246167/Cash-App/) We saved on fees and givelify seemed like a better platform for our ministry. Review Source EB Erin B. Young Adult Missionary Coordinator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Givelify" January 19, 2019 1.0 Pros I like that you can give and or donate to your church via an app. Cons I've had a lot of trouble with this app, even after I download it I'm unable to give with out wifi. This makes it very difficult during offering time if I don't have cash or checks. Review Source Response from Givelify January 23, 2019 Hi Erin. I'm sorry you're having difficulties with the app. I checked your account and I saw that you last successfully made a donation on Dec. 29, 2016. Have you been attempting to donate since then and had this issue? Your app may be an outdated version. I recommend that you delete the app, reinstall it, and try making a donation again. If you're still having trouble, please reach out to our support team at 317-663-3088 for assistance. We're always happy to help. - Matt FW Felicia W. Credit Specialist Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Efficient product" December 8, 2020 5.0 Givelify has allowed our giving to increase substantially do to ease of use we get donations nationwide now that would not have been possible with Givelify app. Pros This software program has made donations receipt, as well as record keeping so efficient. The software literally dies all the hard work. It is Agra at product for the cost. Cons Donors can’t make corrections to their profile after initial set up. Some donors have multiple profiles as they could not edit a mistake with initial setup. Alternatives considered [Card Z3N](https://www.capterra.com/p/186063/Merchant-Services/) Reason for choosing Givelify With the current pandemic, donors have been able to give from home. The swipe card machine required donors to be present to donate. More donors can give from the ease of app On theirphones. Review Source JH Josette H. Church Administrator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Black Owned Giving App" June 23, 2022 5.0 Overall, Givelify is a good app. I definitely recommend it to the churches I consult. Pros Givelify is easy! Easy to deploy, easy to manage, and easy for donors. Being black owned is a bonus Cons The one thing I dislike is that Givelify does not offer the OPTION to cover the fees like Tithe.ly does. This would give them 10's across the board from me. Another con is Givelify does not integrate with many church management systems (i.e BreezeCHMS, Planning Center), which means you need to manually enter/import giving into those systems Alternatives considered [Tithe.ly](https://www.capterra.com/p/154664/Tithe-ly-Church-Giving/) Reason for choosing Givelify Black owned. All of the churches I consult with are black, so this is a way to support our community. Review Source MM Mark M. Lead Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Using Givelify for Your Church" September 29, 2020 5.0 Our experience has been that we have gone as a congregation from at first about 5% choosing to use this app to almost 30% using it due to it's user friendliness and convenience. Pros The best feature is it's ease of use and the many options you can select on setting up the frequency of your donations/offerings. Being able to track your giving and having the capability to print reports is an added bonus as well. Cons It would be nice to have more of a direct link than at first to have to search for the organization name so that with one click you are directly at the point of action. Alternatives considered [Tithe.ly](https://www.capterra.com/p/154664/Tithe-ly-Church-Giving/) Reason for choosing Givelify We liked the overall look and all of the options that were offered by Givelify over the other apps. We also appreciated that their percentage user fee was lower that the competition apps. Review Source DF Dan F. Trustee Religious Institutions Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Givelify" November 21, 2020 5.0 Overall we are very pleased, but have just started. The customer service is something better than superior. They are quick to respond and the responses make sense. You can tell they actually read the input and then developed the appropriate answer rather than just reading off que cards. Very pleased with the service. Pros The software and web site are both easy to use and very well done. It is simple and straight forward plus it does not cost anything other than processing costs which is very reasonable. The app is also easy to use and is user friendly. Cons We just started using it, so I have two things that I think are very bad. First, the set up is laborious because of all the personal and banking info they company wants. Instead of telling the user up front what all is required, we go through steps with each step taking a day while we wait on Givelify to accept or reject it. Then on to the next step with its different documentation requirements. DO it all at once on one screen and be done with it. The other thing, which is quite bothersome, is that the app does not give the donor the option of plussing up the donation by the amount of the service charges. Competitors do that and I was surprised Givelify did not. Alternatives considered [Elvanto](https://www.capterra.com/p/125780/Elvanto/) Reason for choosing Givelify Seemed to be simple and fit our needs without any extra effort. Review Source KT Keith T. Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "GIVELIFY. Give on the Fly " December 8, 2020 5.0 Pros The ease to use the software and easy platform Cons Nothing. The software worked great and was an ease. Switched from [PayPal Point of Sale](https://www.capterra.com/p/171165/PayPal-Here-app/) We gave it a try 2 years ago at a different church and loved it. Review Source Stella N. Lab Technician Chemicals Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Manage donations for our community" November 14, 2020 5.0 We have been collecting donations as a goodwill for people of our community in need. We were using physical boxes but malicious people keep robbing it. Therefore, we swwtched to use Facebook's donations system. However, after we realize Givelify has less commision per donation, we switched to it we are happy. Pros Givelify charging less fee per donation compared to other providers. It is recording and reporting is useful. While we can keep our records to report them to tax office, we can giveour donors receipts of their donations from one place. Their money processing time is also fast, when we need to cash out, they send it to community bank account just in a day. Cons I wish they have an SMS donations integration with all the mobile phone providers. Review Source DS Darlene S. Finance Secretary Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Finance insight" October 21, 2020 4.0 I truly love it and from this our contributions seem to have increased. Pros Membership is comfortable with using it and that is very important when we have such a large membership and not able to come together during this tiem. Cons It allowed members to set up duplicate accounts and I had to request help to combine Reason for choosing Givelify Our Baptist National Congress advised that we use this Switched from [QuickBooks Enterprise](https://www.capterra.com/p/174984/QuickBooks-Enterprise/) Not able to produce the reports that was requested Review Source TB Theresa B. Director of Administrative Services Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Givelify review for Sweet Home Baptist Church of Round Rock" February 14, 2017 4.0 We have utilized Givelify since 2014 and have seen great strides in accessibility. The greatest upgrades were the ability to give via phone and most recently the ability to schedule payments. Over the past 6 months, we have increased our users by more than 30%. Our congregation love the system. On my wish list is the ability to create other reports. Pros The fact that you can access it from your phone or computer. Cons Would like to see the ability to create specialized reports. Review Source LL Linda L. Funeral Concierge Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Hi Tech Managing of Tithes and Offerings" September 24, 2018 5.0 The overall experience among fellow congregants has been favorable. The app is convenient and gives little excuse not to give under any circumstances. Pros Givefly keeps members focused on my commitment to maintain my tithes and offerings to the church. The benefit of having the Givefly app is that it keeps the membership connected so, no matter the location members can send in tithes and offerings to the church. So, I would say convenience and a consistent enhancement to the church fund. Cons When you first downloaded the app I found it a little confusing to use. I had trouble understanding if I could connect more than one account as a payment option. Review Source ES Elisabeth S. Outreach Coordinator Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Givelify Review " July 27, 2019 5.0 Givelify makes fundraising easy and effortless. Pros Givelify is so easy to use for donors as well as non-profits (users). Our non profit uses it for fundraising and it is super easy and straightforward. Also, everything is automatic and I can easily track how much money we raised over a certain period or how much money a certain person donated. Cons There is really nothing I don't like. I've been a user first and then I set it up for our non-profit as well. Review Source HS Hannah S.

Pros I love that this software offers a report of everyone who has donated within a specific range. That is very useful for tracking purposes. Cons I do not like that you cannot pick specific date ranges for what you want to see. You are limited to the date ranges they offer. Review Source JD Jacqui D.

We use this at church and all we do is search our church organization, link the account and send our money. Cons The app retains your account information. Review Source PH Paula H. Coo Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Givelify at The Empowered Church" February 23, 2017 5.0 I love the convenience of Givelify. Our young people not only give more but give more frequently. We initially thought our members would not use it because of electronic submissions. The older members are just as excited to use it as the younger members. I love to see the expressions on an older person's face as a teenager loads an app on their phone. They walk away like, " I've got Givelify". Our members give all weekinds long. We no longer have the drop on income during the summer when vacations are taken. At offering time you see people pulling out their phones and giving like they've been Giveliflying for years we love it. Pros Convenience Cons None Review Source LN LeVar N.
