Church

One of the biggest challenges that you, as a church leader, face with regards to fundraising is, how do you go about raising the additional funds you need for a ministry project without interupting the normal giving habits of your congregation?

Locker 81 provides an answer and a solution with their SMART GIVING Program.

In this program the members of your congregation generate funds for a special ministry project by simply using a church sponsored SMART GIVING VISA DEBIT CARD to make their normal everyday purchases.

When a purchase is made by a cardholder with a SMART GIVING VISA DEBIT CARD
a percentage of the merchant processing fees that are paid to VISA by the merchant are redirected to your church.

In other words, the normal giving patterns of your congregation are un-affected because the funds that are generated, come from the regular cost-of-doing-business processing fees paid by the merchant. So now monies that your congregation regularly spends for gas and groceries can now create funds for your church and designated ministries.

So think of it, special offerings and sponsorships for things like youth camps and missions trips that used to compete with the regular tithes and offerings can now be funded through the SMART GIVING Program. And because the SMART GIVING VISA DEBIT CARD continues to be used year-round by the cardholder it monthly revenues are generated for the church even after the special ministry project is completed.
