3 Simple Steps to Give Online1. First time users may create a user id and password for simplicity with future giving. Do this by clicking on "First Time?" There is also an option to send a one-time gift by clicking on "Quick Give." View History allows you to update you account information and view and print your giving history. Security We use an online database called EasyTithe. This system enables us to provide you with secure access to your contribution records and allows you to make donations online. EasyTithe provides all of the security for the system. EasyTithe is used by churches throughout the country. There are two aspects of security related to the system. First, EasyTithe provides data security using the latest technology and best practices. The following statement is from their security documentation: “EasyTithe uses 128 Bit SSL technology for data transactions. All personal, credit card, & bank information is submitted using 128 bit encryption. There is no stronger form of protection than this encryption and by doing this, we eliminate the possibility that someone might “tap” the line and extract your personal data from it. 128-bit SSL encryption has never been broken and according to RSL Labs, it would take a “trillion-trillion years” to crack the code using today’s technology.” Blue Ridge Christian Church does not electronically store credit card information. Please help us to keep your information safe by protecting your login information. Access to sensitive personal and financial information can be gained by letting someone else use your account or by leaving the information for someone else to see. We will never call you to ask for your login information. Fequently Asked Questions Q: What types of credit cards are accepted? Q: Are there any fees involved with giving online?
