Worship Through Giving
Bill Pay from Your Bank
With this option, you go through your bank to have a check drawn from your account and automatically mailed to the church. Most financial institutions offer this service for free. The church will incur no additional fees if you choose this option. It’s just like you writing a check.
Online Donation – Through Realm
You may also give online via Realm. With this service, you can give using your checking/savings account or credit/debit cards. You can set up a one-time transaction and/or recurring transactions to satisfy your commitment. With each transaction completed, there is a processing fee (2.75%) which the church will pay. You may also choose to add an amount to your gift to help offset fees the church incurs with online and credit/debit card giving.
Text Your Contribution
Simply send a text to 73256 with FirstFarragut $xx, the amount you would like to contribute. Make sure to include the dollar sign before the amount (example: $500).
Within a few minutes, you’ll be sent a text with a link to register. Click on the link and enter your cardholder name and credit or debit card information. Once your registration is complete, you will receive a text verification and a receipt via email.
For future giving, simply send a text with the amount you wish to give, and it will process automatically! With each transaction completed using a credit or debit card for your Texted gift, there is a processing fee (2.75%), which the church will pay. You may also choose to add an amount to your gift to help offset fees the church incurs with text giving.
