Pros

“We have been using Pushpay for 9 years and find it to be a great way to receive donations from anyone, anywhere, at any time. ”

Fred P.

Associate Pastor

“The only way to contact them is through a portal requesting a call back and setting an appointment, which is automatically confirmed on a calendar only to have the rep repeatedly fail to keep.”

Patrick B.

Lead Pastor

“I’m hoping they provide this feature to allow donors to put a single amount for example of $120 and be able to break it down to say Tithes & Offerings $100 and Building project $20. ”

Isaac T.

Treasurer

Pros

“The ability to encourage someone in their spiritual walk while not losing sight of any detail along the way.”

Glen M.

Connections and Communications Pastor

“ChMS is a very substantial church management tool, even when we were using it several years ago before PushPay acquired it”

Benjamin F.

Creative and Communications Director

“It would be helpful if when using the app on a cell phone had the same direct access as a laptop.”

Amy B.

Ministry Lead

Cons

“Our church does not use Pushpay's customized church app feature or church management software because we found it lacking in comparison to competitor's products.”

Taylor S.

Student Ministry Director

“They mislead donors by thinking they are paying the fee for the church but in reality they are just giving more which Pushpay takes their percentage off the total and still bills the church the full amount plus the extra.”

Naomi M.

Finance Clerk

“Having emails and messages filtered through care@pushpay.com caused a delay and allowed for misunderstandings.”

Troyann W.

Executive Director

Cons

“ChMS can go toe-to-toe with the top Church Management Softwares out there, but at the time of our utilization, we were not using the software to its full extent, and that made it hard to justify given the price of the overall tool.”

Benjamin F.

Creative and Communications Director

“Hard to find answers to questions and workarounds at times.”

Jim P.

Adult Ministries Pastor

“We have never used the software at our church, other than the giving, and we don't want to.”

Tiffanie L.

Admin Assistant
