Tap-to-Give Discs for Christian Churches and Churches of Christ

A guest taps a disc with their phone and your church's giving page opens, ready for their gift. No app to install, and no headquarters to clear it with: your church leads itself, chooses the destination, and can change it any time. Put one everywhere your church gathers, from the sanctuary to the first Sunday of a new plant.

Tap.Giving makes custom NFC tap-to-give discs for churches, and this page is written for the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ, the fellowship of independent Christian churches rooted in the Restoration Movement, which the 2020 US Religion Census counted at about 4,800 congregations in the United States. These churches are congregationally autonomous: there is no headquarters that issues directives, and each church leads itself. This fellowship is distinct from the Churches of Christ, a separate Restoration Movement fellowship, and the two should not be confused. A church orders discs printed with its own artwork, places them where people gather (welcome tables, chair backs, lobby signage, the launch kit of a new church plant), and every tap or scan opens the church's giving page. Discs cost $5.00 each for 100 to 199, $4.00 for 200 to 399, and $3.50 for 400 or more, one time, with free shipping and no monthly fees. Every disc carries a locked NTAG213 chip and a printed QR code to the same destination, and the church can change where taps land at any time in the free Redirect Dashboard. One plain note: this page is a resource for Christian Churches and Churches of Christ congregations, and Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by Christian Churches and Churches of Christ.

About Christian Churches and Churches of Christ

The Christian Churches and Churches of Christ are independent Christian churches rooted in the Restoration Movement, the nineteenth century plea to restore the faith and practice of the New Testament church. Each congregation is autonomous: it calls its own ministers, is led by its own elders, and sets its own direction. There is no headquarters that issues directives, and cooperation between churches runs through voluntary partnerships, colleges, missions, and independent church planting agencies. Instrumental worship is common in these churches, alongside preaching, communion, and baptism by immersion.

One point of clarity, because the names are close: the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ are a distinct fellowship from the Churches of Christ. Both grow out of the Restoration Movement, but they are separate fellowships with separate congregations, and this page is written for the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ only. This fellowship likewise has no central headquarters and no single official logo, which is why this section carries none.

Where do tap-to-give discs go in an independent Christian church?

An independent Christian church might be a century old, multisite, or eighteen months from launch day, and its next step is decided by its own leaders, not issued from a headquarters. The giving moment has to work in every one of those rooms. A link on a screen works until the service moves fast, the venue changes, or a first-time guest has no idea what your giving URL is.

A disc removes the friction everywhere it sits. The destination lives in the dashboard and not on the disc, so the same discs keep working as your church plants, moves, and multiplies.

Church plants through independent agencies

These churches plant through independent agencies and sending churches, and a plant starts with borrowed rooms and a launch team. Discs ride in the portable kit from the first preview service, printed with the new church's own artwork, so a guest can give in the moment without downloading an app or hunting for a link.

Portable and rented venues

School gyms, theaters, and hotel ballrooms share one rule: nothing permanent goes in. Discs ride on the signage, banners, and giving stations your setup team already rolls in and tears down, so the giving point is up before the first song and gone with the trailer.

Multisite campuses

Every campus gets the same discs, printed once and shipped where they are needed. Point all of them at one giving page, or give each campus its own destination in the dashboard, and change any of it the week a new campus opens.

Next steps and first-time guests

The next-steps table is where a guest decides what happens next. A disc there turns a good conversation into a first gift and a real connection, while the moment is still warm.

How it works

  1. 1

    Order your discs

    Approve your free proof, pick round or square, and order 100 or more. Pricing is one-time, shipping is free, and most orders arrive about 2 to 3 weeks after artwork approval.

  2. 2

    Place them where people gather

    Stick discs on welcome tables, chair backs, lobby signs, and portable giving stations. The 3M adhesive backing is standard, table stands suit rented rooms, and optional screw holes suit permanent mounting once you have a permanent home.

  3. 3

    People tap and give

    A tap or scan opens your giving page. Your giving platform takes the gift and issues the receipt. Tap.Giving never touches the money.

Most iPhones from the iPhone XR onward and most Android phones from the last several years read NFC with no app. The printed QR code covers every other phone, and both go to the same page.

What the disc does not do

Tap.Giving sells hardware only. We are not a payment processor, and no gift ever passes through us. The disc opens a page; everything after that belongs to the giving platform your church already uses.

That means your platform keeps handling the gift itself, the card details, the receipt, and the donor record in your church's systems. Nothing about your giving operation changes except how people reach the page.

It also means our pricing stays simple: one one-time price for the discs. No percentage of gifts, no per-gift fee, no monthly subscription, and nothing taken out of what your people give.

Where discs work in your building, or your borrowed one

If people gather there, a disc belongs there. Churches place them anywhere a welcome already happens:

  • Chair backs and seat rows. The invitation to give sits with every person, all service long.
  • Welcome and next-steps tables. A first-time guest can give and connect in the same stop.
  • Lobby giving stations. A standing giving point that works before, between, and after services.
  • Portable signage and banners. The graphics your team already sets up each week carry the giving point with them.
  • Kids check-in counters. Parents meet the same simple way to give where they already stop every Sunday.
  • Church plant launch kits. A new plant opens with its giving point already printed, packed, and ready.

Built for churches that plant churches

A church in this fellowship can add a campus, send out a plant through an independent agency, or move buildings in the same year it marks a hundred years in its neighborhood. Printed pieces usually die at every change: the giving card names the old platform, the sign names the old venue. Discs are the one printed piece that survives, because nothing about the destination is printed on them.

Order for the rooms you have today, and the same discs serve the next campus and the daughter church your congregation sends out. When the church's shape changes, you change a setting, not a print run.

From the oldest sanctuary to the newest plant, the giving point is wherever your people are sitting.

Your giving page can change. Your discs do not have to.

Every Tap.Giving disc includes the Redirect Dashboard, free, for as long as you own the discs. When your church needs taps to land somewhere new, sign in and change the destination. The change takes effect in seconds, there is no limit on how often you change it, and the discs in the field never need to be touched.

Growing churches live on changing links: a launch page gives way to an everyday giving page, a campus gets its own fund, a platform migration moves everything. Your printed discs survive all of it, because the destination lives in the dashboard rather than on the disc.

Destinations can be set per disc or per group, so the discs at your sending church can open a different page from the discs in a plant's launch kit.

Every disc also carries a printed QR code

Some phones cannot read NFC, and some people simply prefer to scan. Every disc therefore carries a printed QR code next to the tap point, and both open the same destination.

Nothing is lost either way: the QR code is printed as part of your artwork, follows the destination whenever you change it in the dashboard, and never needs a separate sign or card.

What tap-to-give discs cost a church

Pricing is one-time and published:

  • $5.00 per disc for 100 to 199 discs
  • $4.00 per disc for 200 to 399 discs
  • $3.50 per disc for 400 or more discs

Get 10% off your first order and a free custom design

Enter your email and we will build a free design proof with your church's logo. No payment due until you approve it.

10% off applies to your first order with code WELCOME10, inside a 7-day renewing window.

The minimum order is 100 discs, because every disc is custom printed with your church's artwork. That minimum deserves a plain word: a hundred discs suits a church with real rooms to fill, such as a launch with hundreds of seats, a portable setup with signage in every corner, or more than one campus. If your congregation is still small and gathers in one borrowed room, a printed QR code on a sign may honestly cover it for now, and we would rather tell you that than sell you discs you will not place.

There are no setup fees, no monthly fees, and no per-gift fees. Shipping is free. Most orders arrive about 2 to 3 weeks after artwork approval, as an estimate rather than a promise, and there is no rush service. Every order is covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee.

There are no samples, because every disc is custom printed. Instead, you approve a free design proof of your actual artwork before anything is produced, so you see exactly what your discs will look like.

Questions Christian churches ask

Is Tap.Giving affiliated with Christian Churches and Churches of Christ?

No. This page is a resource we wrote for churches in the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ. Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by Christian Churches and Churches of Christ. This fellowship has no headquarters for anyone to be affiliated with: every congregation is autonomous. We make tap-to-give discs for any church; this page simply explains why they fit the way these independent churches gather and plant. The Christian Churches and Churches of Christ are a distinct fellowship from the Churches of Christ, and this page is written for the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ only.

What is the minimum order?

100 discs. Every disc is custom printed with your church's artwork, so production starts at 100. Pricing is $5.00 a disc at 100 to 199, $4.00 at 200 to 399, and $3.50 at 400 or more.

How long does it take to get our discs?

About 2 to 3 weeks from artwork approval. That is an estimate, not a promise, and there is no rush service, so order ahead of the launch Sunday or move you want them for. Shipping is free.

Can we change where the discs point later?

Yes, any time, in the free Redirect Dashboard. Changes take effect in seconds and there is no limit on how often you change. Point every campus at one giving page today, then give a new campus its own page next month, without reprinting anything.

We are planting a church through an independent agency. Will discs work for a plant?

Yes. Nothing is installed in the building. Discs ride on the signage, banners, and giving stations your launch team already sets up and tears down, using the standard 3M adhesive backing or the table stands. When the plant moves venues, the discs move with it.

Which giving platforms does it work with?

Any of them. The disc opens whatever giving link you give it, for example a Tithely, Pushpay, or Subsplash giving page. If your church changes platforms, update the destination in the dashboard and the same discs keep working.

How durable are the discs?

They are waterproof PVC, 0.85 mm thick with a matte finish, and the NTAG213 chip inside is locked. The 3M adhesive backing is standard for signs, counters, and chair backs, and optional pre-drilled screw holes suit permanent mounting once you have a permanent home.

What if they do not work for our church?

Every order is covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee. If the discs are not right for your church, contact us within 30 days for a refund.
