Imagine yourself in church as the collection plate is passed around. You reach into your wallet only to find some change, and you remember that you left your checkbook at home. So you open the church’s website on your smartphone and try to make an online donation. But the website isn’t mobile friendly, and by now the person next to you is getting bothered by your phone use during the service. How are you supposed to offer a gift to the church? 

Now imagine the same scenario, but this time with a church giving app. You open your church’s app and with just a few taps you’ve quickly and easily made a donation. 

These scenarios illustrate why some of the most popular online donation tools today are church giving apps. Church giving apps are mobile apps that allow people to easily donate through their mobile devices. Mobile donations have tripled over the last few years, as the best church donation apps are rapidly replacing collection plates in many countries.
