How to adjust online giving fees

Customize the fees for both one-time and recurring online donations. These settings only affect online giving and are powered by your Stripe

This article shows you how to view and change the processing fee tier used for your online giving.

View & Change Your Giving Fees

You can reach the fee settings from either the Funds page or the Giving page:

  1. Go to Funds (or Giving) from the left-hand menu.

  2. Open the actions menu and click Configure online fees.

  3. A side panel opens. Click Edit settings to make changes:

    • One-time transactions: select your preferred fee tier.

    • Recurring transactions: choose the extra recurring fee (0.5% or 0.7%).

  4. Click Save settings to confirm, or Discard changes to cancel.

The available one-time tiers are 1.5% + $0.20, 1.5% + $0.25, 1.7% + $0.30, 2.2% + $0.30, 2.9% + $0.30 (the default), and 2.9% + $4.50.

⚠️ Note: These rates also appear in your Stripe account, since online card giving is processed through Stripe.


Tip for Nonprofits

If your church is a registered nonprofit, you can apply to Stripe's nonprofit program to qualify for a lower rate (for example, 2.2% + $0.30 instead of the standard 2.9% + $0.30). Once approved, come back here and select the matching lower tier — several reduced tiers are available, not just one.

👉 To apply, visit the Stripe Nonprofit Discount Page and submit your organization details.
