Getting Started with Contactless

In the last ten years the use of cash has slowly diminished and now twice the value and volume of payments are made by card and contactless methods compared to cash. With this in mind we must consider how this impacts how people give to our churches, and we must ensure there is an option for them to give contactlessy.

Discover the Contactless Devices and opportunities for your church to make the most of cashless giving. It will be helpful for newcomers to contactless giving, and an opportunity for all to ask questions.
