Free Church Donation Tracking Software

Church donation tracking software is used to record contributions, organize donor information, and monitor giving over time. Churches use it to track tithes, offerings, event donations, and pledges in a centralized system. With Jotform, churches can collect donations online, store contribution records, and manage reports using forms, payment integrations, approvals, and Jotform Tables.

Build a church donation form that matches your ministry

Churches collect various types of giving, including weekly tithes, mission funds, building campaigns, special events, and pledge commitments. You can start from a church donation template, build from scratch, or generate a form with a prompt, then customize the fields and funds to match your ministry needs.

Benefits

Benefits of using Jotform as church donation tracking software

Collect online donations securely

Churches can accept payments directly through online forms using supported payment gateways. This allows members to give through credit card, debit card, or other supported methods while keeping transactions connected to the donation record.

Track recurring tithes and pledges

Recurring giving is common for weekly or monthly tithes. Donation forms can include recurring payment options so contributions are automatically processed on a set schedule and tracked in the system.

Organize donations by fund or campaign

Churches often allocate donations to specific funds such as missions, youth ministry, outreach, or building projects. You can include fund selection fields in your form and organize records in Jotform Tables, where contributions can be filtered by fund, date, or donor.

Automate confirmations and internal notifications

After a donation is submitted, confirmation emails can be sent automatically to donors. Internal notifications can also alert church staff when large or campaign-specific donations are received.

Route donation reviews or special requests

If certain donations require review, such as designated gifts or pledge approvals, they can be routed through review steps using approval workflows.

Support mobile and in-person giving

Donation forms can be shared by link or QR code and accessed from phones or tablets. This supports in-person events, special services, and community outreach where quick access to giving forms is needed.

Common use cases

Weekly tithes and offerings

Collect recurring or one-time tithes through an online form and track contributions by member name, date, and fund.

Special campaigns and building funds

Create separate forms for capital campaigns, mission trips, or seasonal giving and organize each campaign in a centralized tracking table.

Event-based donations

Track donations collected during church events or fundraisers and link contributions to a specific event name or ministry.

Pledge tracking

Collect pledge commitments with defined amounts and schedules, then monitor fulfillment over time in a structured table view.
