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

  1. On /give, click Give on the organization.
  2. Under Amount, pick $25, $50, $100 or $250, or type your own in Other amount (USD). You can enter cents, for example 37.50.
  3. 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.
