Do I have to have a Tithe.ly account to give?

No! You can absolutely donate, register, or pay without signing up for a Tithe.ly account except for when using text-to-give or the Tithe.ly mobile app where having an account is required.

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. We wanted to make that process easy and pain-free.  You can start giving from your favorite organization's website at any time.

However if you'd like to make giving as easy as possible and have the opportunity to take advantage of all the Tithe.ly features, you'll have to create an account.

The below features become available to you with an account:

  • Securely store your payment method (so you don't have to type it out each time)
  • Setup / cancel a recurring donation
  • See your giving history
  • Manage your account yourself 24/7
