I made a mistake…
I made a mistake and donated the wrong amount. How can I get a refund?
Contact the parish office and they will be able to credit the amount donated in error back to your account – just like when you return an item you bought at a store or online. It is very important that the mistake is caught as soon as possible. Credits cannot be made more than a few days after a transaction has been processed.
What proof will I see?
What can I use to show I made a donation?
The itemized list of electronic transactions that appear on your bank or credit card statement can be used as proof of your donations.
Credit Card or Bank Account?
What payment methods can I use to donate?
Donations can be made with all major debit/credit cards currently accepted by your church. You can also give or pay using your checking or savings account.
When?
When will my contributions be processed?
Your contributions will be processed on the date(s) you authorize.
Receipt?
Will I receive a receipt?
Yes. You will receive a receipt via email, and you will also be able to view transactions in your giving history. Guest donors will receive a receipt if they choose to enter their email address when completing a donation.
Can I give to my parish?
Can I give to my parish?
Yes! You can specify which parish you wish you donate to in for each line item (envelopes, special offerings, etc). You may notice on your bank statement or credit card that it says St. Catherine Parish. That is only because all the online giving is processed through one account and then we split everything internally.
