Financial Stewardship

Sunday cash, physical checks, and online giving reconciled in one place.

Most giving platforms pretend the offering plate is obsolete. Tent54 provides Monday counters with fast check/cash envelope batch entry, alongside online card giving that deposits straight into your church's bank account through its own Stripe account.

Honest Financial Stewardship

Keep more of every tithe for local ministry.

In smaller churches, every hundred dollars saved in software and credit card fees is money that funds youth camps, benevolence, or pastoral care.

01

Low online fee

Tent54 takes 0.2% of each online gift: $2 on a $1,000 gift. Givers can choose to cover the processing fees. Bank transfers (ACH) are coming. When they arrive, Tent54's fee on a bank gift will be capped at $5.

02

Fast Monday Check & Cash Batches

Your counters type checks and cash envelopes with rapid 10-key numeric input. The system automatically creates a bank deposit slip, balances the drawer, and attributes gifts to donor tax records.

03

Year-end giving statements

In January, print a statement for every donor at once. Cash, checks and online gifts appear together on one statement.

Under-500 Stewardship

Honoring kingdom tithes with capped fees and zero donation taxes

Every dollar given on Sunday represents the sacrifice of faithful members. We believe giving tools should protect those tithes, not tax your church with higher software subscriptions as generosity grows.

  • ✓ Zero Donation Volume Penalties: Receive 50 or 500 donations every month without triggering software tier price jumps.
  • ✓ Low online fee: 0.2% to Tent54, with Stripe's processing fee separate. Givers can choose to cover the fees.
  • ✓ Cash, checks and online gifts together: every gift lands on the donor's one year-end statement.
