Sanctuary and Sunday worship
Sunday is where most guests meet your church, and many have never given to it. Discs on chair backs and welcome tables let a guest or member give in the moment, without downloading an app or hunting for a link.
For EFCA churches
Tap-to-Give Discs for EFCA Churches
A guest taps a disc with their phone and your giving page opens, ready for their gift. No app to install, nothing to mount in a building you do not own, and no link to read out loud. Put one everywhere your church gathers, from Sunday worship to a district conference or a church plant's first service.
Works with any giving page
Nothing installed in the building

Tap.Giving makes custom NFC tap-to-give discs for churches, and this page is written for churches in the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA), an evangelical association of autonomous congregations that counts about 1,600 congregations in the United States, organized into districts. A church orders discs printed with its own artwork, places them where people gather (welcome tables, chair backs, lobby signage, district conference rooms), 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 EFCA churches, and Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by the EFCA.

About the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA)
The Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA) was formed in 1950 by the merger of the Swedish Evangelical Free Church and the Norwegian-Danish Evangelical Free Church Association, roots that still show in many congregations. It counts about 1,600 congregations in the United States.
The EFCA is an association of autonomous congregations: each local church governs itself, united by a common Statement of Faith and served by districts. Church planting runs through districts and EFCA ReachNetwork, the denomination's church planting work, and global missions runs through ReachGlobal.
Where do tap-to-give discs go in an EFCA church?
An EFCA congregation is self-governing, so its giving tools are chosen locally and have to fit its own rooms, from the Sunday sanctuary to the district conference and the daughter church it is helping plant. 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, hosts, and changes giving platforms.
Church plants and ReachNetwork
EFCA church planting runs through districts and ReachNetwork, and new plants usually meet in rented rooms with weekly setup. Discs ride on the signage and giving stations the plant team already rolls in, and the giving point is up before the first song.
District conferences and gatherings
Districts gather local churches for training and encouragement. Discs at registration and welcome tables open the page the host chooses for that gathering, then return to Sunday giving when the conference ends.
Missions and ReachGlobal emphasis
EFCA churches support global missions through ReachGlobal and local outreach at home. Discs at a missions table can open a missions fund page for an emphasis season, then return to general giving in the dashboard, with no new printing.

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 self-governing congregations and the churches they plant
An EFCA church chooses its own tools, plants daughter churches through its district, and can change buildings or giving platforms in the same season. 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 sanctuary, the fellowship hall, and the plant your church is helping start. When the destination changes, you change a setting, not a print run.
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.
Churches live on changing links: a missions emphasis gives way to everyday giving, a district conference gets its own page, 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 in your sanctuary can open a different page from the discs your church plant is using.
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
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 sanctuary and fellowship hall, a congregation helping plant a daughter church, or a church that hosts district gatherings. If your congregation is still small and gathers in one 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 EFCA churches ask
Is Tap.Giving affiliated with the EFCA?
No. This page is a resource we wrote for churches in the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA). Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by the EFCA. We make tap-to-give discs for any church; this page simply explains why they fit EFCA congregations, which govern themselves locally and cooperate through their districts.
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 Sunday, district conference, or church plant launch 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 your whole church at one giving page today, then give a new church plant or a special fund its own page next month, without reprinting anything.
We are planting a church through our district. Will discs work in a rented space?
Yes. Nothing is installed in the building. Discs ride on the signage, banners, and giving stations a plant team already sets up and tears down, using the standard 3M adhesive backing or the table stands. When the plant moves venues or into a permanent home, 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.
