Tap.Giving makes custom NFC tap-to-give discs for churches, and this page is written for churches in the National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc., the historic Black Baptist convention organized in 1895. Two counts describe it, and they count different things: the 2020 US Religion Census counted 2,530 congregations in the United States, while the convention reports 21,145 congregations including international churches (2023), a self-reported total. The census figure is the US figure, the larger number is the convention's own count including international churches, and the two should not be merged into a single figure. A church orders discs printed with its own artwork, places them where people gather (pew backs, welcome tables, lobby signage, the tables at a congress or annual session), 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 National Baptist Convention churches, and Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by the National Baptist Convention, USA.

About the National Baptist Convention, USA

The National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc. is a historic Black Baptist convention, organized in 1895 when earlier Black Baptist conventions came together as one body. Headquartered at the Baptist World Center in Nashville, Tennessee, it carries well over a century of preaching, teaching, music, and missions. Its member churches are autonomous congregations: each one governs itself, calls its own pastor, and chooses to cooperate with sister churches through the convention.

The convention year runs on gathered moments: the Annual Session, the Congress of Christian Education, the mid-winter board meeting, and the state conventions, district associations, and local gatherings in between. On the numbers, the 2020 US Religion Census counted 2,530 congregations in the United States, while the convention reports 21,145 congregations including international churches (2023). Those two counts measure different things, a US census count and a self-reported total that includes international churches, and they should not be merged.

Where do tap-to-give discs go in a National Baptist church?

A National Baptist congregation carries a full Sunday: preaching, choirs and congregational singing, church school, and an offering moment that matters to the life of the church. The giving moment has to work in every one of those rooms, for members who have sat in the same pew for decades and for a first-time guest who 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 from an ordinary Sunday to the annual session, and from a special offering to the next building fund.

Pews and the offering moment

Discs on pew backs and seat rows sit with every person through the whole service, so when the offering is called, a member or guest can tap and give in the moment, without passing a phone, finding cash, or waiting for a link on a screen.

Annual sessions and congresses

The Annual Session and the Congress of Christian Education gather thousands of delegates in rooms your church does not own. Discs ride on the signage, registration tables, and giving stations your team sets up, printed with your church's own artwork, and come home with you when the gathering ends.

Music, anniversaries, and special offerings

Church anniversaries, choir days, revival weeks, and building fund drives each carry their own appeal and their own destination. Point a set of discs at the anniversary fund or the building campaign in the dashboard, then point them back when the season passes, without reprinting anything.

Welcome tables and first-time guests

The welcome 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.
  • Annual session and congress kits. A gathered session opens with its giving point already printed, packed, and ready.

Built for churches with deep roots and full Sundays

A National Baptist church can mark a hundred years in its neighborhood, grow a second service, and launch a building campaign in the same season. Printed pieces usually die at every change: the giving card names the old platform, the envelope names the old fund. 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 anniversary year, the revival week, and the new sanctuary. When the church's shape changes, you change a setting, not a print run.

From a century-old sanctuary to the annual session floor, 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.

Church life runs on changing links: a building fund gives way to an everyday giving page, an anniversary appeal 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 in the pews can open a different page from the discs your team carries to the annual session.

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 pews across a full sanctuary, tables at a congress or session, or more than one service to cover. 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 National Baptist churches ask

Is Tap.Giving affiliated with the National Baptist Convention, USA?

No. This page is a resource we wrote for churches in the National Baptist Convention, USA. Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by the National Baptist Convention, USA. We make tap-to-give discs for any church; this page simply explains why they fit the way National Baptist churches gather, preach, sing, and give.

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 annual session, congress, or anniversary 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 disc at one giving page today, then give a building fund or anniversary appeal its own page next month, without reprinting anything.

We host sessions, congresses, and church anniversaries. Will discs work at events?

Yes. Nothing is installed in the building. Discs ride on the signage, registration tables, and giving stations your team sets up for the gathering, using the standard 3M adhesive backing or the table stands. When the event ends, the discs come home with you.

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.
