Gyve exists to help people encounter Christ and engage in community. We strongly believe that the faith of a community is directly related to its journey of generosity. So Gyve is not here to move churches and congregations from one giving tool to another. Rather, it is here to unlock generosity among non-givers and increase giving in their churches and communities.

Gyve has many church-centric features that help churches accelerate generosity in their congregations. Just like many other church-giving apps, Gyve also has a full-fledged feature list that helps the church as an end-to-end provider to simplify generosity in their congregations. Click here to see the full list of features.

However, a unique feature that Gyve offers for churches is a round-up functionality that helps congregants give to the church while making everyday purchases especially when they are not in church or giving to their church. This feature lets them give from Monday to Saturday by rounding up change on all purchases and not just during offering time on Sunday.

PayPal has been the leader in payment aggregation and serves some churches that need a simple giving solution. However, churches have been moving over from PayPal to Gyve because of the need for specific church-giving functionalities. Click here to understand why churches move from PayPal to Gyve and how this simple transition can be accomplished seamlessly.

We understand and we get asked this question all the time. Write to us at support@gyve.io and we will take this up on a case-by-case basis and help give you the best options. Consider this just as the case of how an AT&T user is helped by T-Mobile to switch to a new provider and a better solution. And all those new T-mobile converts cried “Amen!”.

Most giving providers might tell you that you can get started in an hour but we can’t and don’t start that way.

We ensure that we have a great onboarding session at the start for you and once that’s done, Gyve can be integrated into your church in a matter of hours.
