FAQS

What is E-Giving

E-Giving is short for electronic giving. It is an automatic transfer program that allows you to make contributions without the hassle of writing checks.

How does it work?

Go to our website, www.valleygrovebc.org and click on the "e-Giving" icon at the top of the page. Then, simply follow the directions to authorize an ACH deduction and you can make a donation via your checking or savings account or credit/debit card; it will be transferred directly to the church's account.

Can I donate to various funds and causes in the Church

Absolutely. Just select which one and how much you would like to give. If you would like to see a fund added please email us at admin@valleygrovebc.org 

How often will the amount be deducted from my account?

That's up to you. You can make a one-time donation or set up recurring donations.

What if I make a mistake during the process?

No problem! You will have a chance to confirm, cancel or change any transaction before it is submitted.

What if I try it and I don't like it?

You can cancel your automatic deduction schedule on the website at any time.

Can I look up my donations on line?

You can view all donations completed online print out a statement, and even use it for tax purposes. Please note that the online statement will not show any offerings you gave at the church (e.g. checks and envelope giving). You may obtain your complete donation statement from the church treasurer.

How much does E-Giving cost?

Nothing to you and a nominal fee to the church. Debit card fees are slightly higher for the church than ACH transactions from your checking or savings accounts. Additionally, we only allow ACH transactions for checking, savings, and debit cards as we do not want to encourage credit card giving. 

Can anyone at the church see my accounts numbers?

No. 

Did you know that there also is an APP for that? That's right you can download an APP for your Droid or iPhone which will enable you to use e-Giving via your cellphone.
