How to Have a Magical In-App Giving Experience - By Simple Donation

As a giver, being able to give directly through your churchʼs app vs. getting redirected to a browser is a better experience. Giving via Apple or Google Pay further enhances the experience and this greatly reduces friction when completing first and future gifts to your church!

All of this is now available by using Simple Donation in your Apollos or Rock Mobile powered app.

This fall we enabled ITOWN Church to launch their in-app giving directly from within their Rock Mobile app. Hear a bit about their experience:

"In App giving may sound like a small feature but it definitely helps create a consistent excellent experience. Our senior pastors have instilled the vision that excellence creates peace, peace creates comfort, and comfort creates an open heart. That is our goal in all arenas of the church.

Simple Donation fully understood our vision and stood beside us to make this idea a reality. We had such a great experience partnering with Simple Donation throughout the process of researching requirements and communicating with partner vendors. Jeff and his team are insightful, flexible, and willing to do whatever they can to help make giving easier for church staff and simple for givers! We are looking forward to continuing working closely with them!"

-Melissa Shankle, Digital Systems Administrator, ITOWN Church

"I love that I can use Apple Pay for giving now! Itʼs super convenient to not have to remember account numbers or make sure my wallet is always around. Which seems silly but as I'm always on the go is an added convenience I very much appreciate!"

-Anonymous Giver, ITOWN Church

The setup is simple:

We will create the appropriate mobile pages in coordination with your communications team. We'll guide you through the straightforward Apple Pay integration process. It can be a challenge to navigate the app store review process, but we'll help you get your app approved and in compliance.

The experience is simple:

Any donor using your app can give directly through your app. Donors can give one-time or setup a recurring donation, and complete this gift in seconds without any requirement to create a RockRMS or Simple Donation account. We keep the required fields minimal to make that first gift fast, easy, and simple!

Like everything that we do at Simple Donation to ensure that you keep your overall costs low, we allow the donor to cover the fee for the gift.

Why make it so simple?

Simple Donationʼs mission is to be the best giving/payments platform for Churches that use RockRMS. This is done by focusing on building the best experience for donors, church finance staff, and stewardship/discipleship pastors.
