Gift amounts and limits
Each gift must be between $1 and $25,000 in US dollars, paid by card. Here's what that means for one-time and recurring gifts.
Each gift on Christian.com must be at least $1 and no more than $25,000, in US dollars, and is paid by card. The same limits apply on the /give page, through the giving assistant, and when you change the amount of a recurring gift.
Choosing an amount
- On /give, click Give on the organization.
- Under Amount, pick $25, $50, $100 or $250, or type your own in Other amount (USD). You can enter cents, for example 37.50.
- If the amount is outside the limits, the Give button is disabled and you'll see "Choose an amount between $1 and $25,000."
What the limit applies to
- The gift, not the charge. The limit is checked on your gift amount. If you cover card processing, your card is charged a little more than the gift, and that's fine even near $25,000. See Cover the card processing fee.
- Each charge. For a recurring gift, each weekly, monthly or yearly charge must be within the limits.
- Changes. If you ask the giving assistant to change a recurring gift to an amount outside the limits, it can't make the change and tells you so.
Giving more than $25,000
You can make more than one gift, each within the limit. For a single larger gift, contact the organization directly about other ways to give.
Good to know
- Gifts are charged in US dollars only.
- Card is the only payment method for gifts.
- If a prefilled giving link (for example, one shared by a church) has an amount outside the limits, the form simply opens with the usual default amount instead.
