As members across all demographics continue to adopt online giving methods in droves (see data from the Winkler Group), the shift to Web-based giving presents churches with new opportunities to increase donations and engagement within their communities.

• Automated email notification for users with cards due to expire
• Contributions sync with LOGOS’ church management software, LOGOS II

“The updated online giving is a win for both donors and churches,” said Jonathan Prisant, Director of Product Development for LOGOS Management Software, “The web 2.0 look and feel will increase the use of features like recurring giving, creating increased proportionate income for the church.”
