A Note on Deposits

Once your first donation is made through your ChurchSpring Giving platform, the first deposit/payout processed by Stripe may take 7-14 days. After that, funds will be deposited into your bank every 2 days.

NOTE: The Stripe account comes with extra security called “Radar Standard,” and it charges $0.05 per scanned transaction. Radar Standard is a great option packed with advanced features, but if your ministry doesn’t need the extra customization and reporting tools, Radar Lite offers the same core fraud protection completely free. You can learn how to downgrade to Radar Lite here.
