When giving, registering, or paying via the Tithe.ly web giving form you do NOT have to create a Tithe.ly account to make one-time or recurring donations. Simply enter your payment details and click the Give button.

General giving to the church is not classed as tax deductible by the ATO as the church is not classed as a deductible gift recipient (DGR)

By creating an account, you’ll be able to securely store your payment method (so you don’t have to enter it each time), setup and manage recurring donations, see your online giving history, and manage your account yourself 24/7.

Yes! Tithe.ly takes data and payment information security very seriously. All sensitive financial information is stored with bank level security. All information transmission to Tithe.ly’s banking partner and on our site is done via an encrypted HTTPS (SSL) connection, and stored by the banking partner to PCI DSS Level 1 compliant standards.

All electronic giving involves processing fees. These fees help cover the cost of processing each electronic transaction, and maintaining a secure and safe environment for your transactions. By selecting the “Cover card processing fees” option, you increase your donation by the amount of the fee, ensuring the Sydney Church of Christ receives your fully intended gift amount.

The processing fees are 1.9% + AU$0.30 per successful charge – VISA, MasterCard, Maestro & American Express

Anytime you are charged you will receive an email notification from Tithe.ly.

Your personal data will never be sold, traded, or given out to third parties. Your information will be stored only for the purposes of processing your gifts and providing you with giving statements. Read the Tithe.ly privacy policy.
