Setting Up and Managing Member Giving Accounts

Breeze simplifies online giving by enabling donors to manage their contributions and recurring gifts with ease. A standout feature is the ability to save payment methods, such as cards or bank accounts, for faster transactions in future donations. "Can you save payment methods for online giving?" Absolutely. This convenience ensures a seamless donation process for users with a Breeze account, enhancing the overall experience of supporting your church's mission. Whether setting up new donations or adjusting recurring ones, saved payment methods make giving straightforward and hassle-free.

 

Giving accounts, also known as "Member Access Accounts," are great for donors who wish to:

  • Manage their recurring gifts

Donors will first need a Breeze account to log in with. You can either create it for them or allow them to create it themselves .
To set up a donation on the user's end:
  1. Log into Breeze and Click on "Give Now".
  2. Make a contribution using your chosen payment method.

The Give Now tab when logged into your Breeze account as a User or Member is an internal link and cannot be customized as it includes only the fields necessary for an individual submitting an online gift to your church.
