Txt2Give
What it is
Txt2Give is a donation platform for churches and nonprofits that lets supporters give by texting a keyword and amount. Donors use their phone’s built-in messaging app, without downloading an app or creating an account. The platform handles payment processing and sends emailed receipts. Supporters can schedule recurring gifts weekly, every two weeks, monthly, or on the 1st and 15th. Plans include unlimited causes and keywords, a branded online giving page, a real-time dashboard, and reporting. Named integrations include Planning Center, FellowshipOne, and Community Church Builder; additional connections are available through export. The platform lists English, French, and Spanish support and is available on Android, iOS, and web. Txt2Give says Stripe processes payments and tokenizes card details rather than storing them on its servers. The Donor-Supported Plan is free, with a 15% tip prompt followed by 5%; a 1% fee applies only when donors decline both. The Flat Rate Plan is $25 per month plus 1% per gift, without a donor tip prompt. Both plans also have Stripe processing fees of 2.3% + $0.30 per transaction. Push messaging is a separately priced add-on requiring regulatory approval.
