Is it safe and secure? Online gifts meet the same security and standards as online banking. Just be sure to use a secure internet connection (no public wifi).
When are my gifts automatically taken from my account? One-time gifts are immediately processed and the transaction should on your bank/credit card statement within a few days. If you chose to make a recurring gift, your first donation will process immediately. Then, you will receive an email to create an online donor account. Your account allows you to choose the frequency of your gifts as well as a date on which the funds will be automatically withdrawn from a checking account or charged to a credit card. You can also pause or cancel a recurring gift at any time.
What if my bank account or credit card information changes? If a donor has a recurring gift, they will be able to log into their online donor account to make any necessary changes or updates to banking account, credit card, and contact information. Donor accounts also allow donors to update any details to their gifts including pausing or cancelling a scheduled gift.
What if I try an online donor account but do not wish to continue using it? Recurring gift accounts can be set up or cancelled at anytime. If you attempt to cancel a gift after it has begun processing, you will need to contact the parish for a refund.
