Are there fees for giving by text?
If you pay per text message, you will have those usual fees. The transaction amount will NOT
appear on your cellular bill and is handled directly through your PayPal account, our online,
text, and kiosk giving provider. As with any credit card transaction service, PayPal retains a
small percentage and is the same whether giving online, by text, or kiosk. These additional
giving options have been made available for your convenience. If you’d like to ensure the lowest
fees on your gift to the church, you can give by cash or check in the offering plate.
