Northside has set up an account through the Presbyterian Foundation to accept electronic funds transfer (EFTs) and credit/debit card payments at any time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You may set up recurring gifts so your pledge giving continues even when you are on vacation and cannot attend services. You can also make one-time payments for special and designated offerings. The church is charged a 2% administrative fee for all gifts received to cover the reasonable and customary costs of operation of the giving site, but you can opt to add a percentage of your gift to cover the transaction fees (you do get tax credit for the extra amount).
The secure form is where you will log in and manage your transactions. On your first visit you will need to set up a profile using your email as your User ID and creating a secure password. Once set up, you can make your donations. Per the Presbyterian Foundation, the information Vanco (the service provider) receives from you will only be used to process your transactions and will never be shared with any other party, except as required by law. Your information will be safeguarded in strict compliance with federal standards for nonpublic personal information.
