Tap.Giving makes custom NFC tap-to-give discs for churches, and this page is written for churches in the Progressive National Baptist Convention (PNBC), a Baptist convention formed in 1961 with roots in the civil rights movement, whose member churches are autonomous congregations joined in a shared convention life. The convention self-reports roughly 1,300 to 1,800 congregations and 1.5 to 2.5 million members; outside enumerations are far lower, so those self-reported figures should not be read as settled counts. A church orders discs printed with its own artwork, places them where people gather (welcome tables, chair backs, lobby signage, fellowship halls and annual session venues), 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 PNBC churches, and Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Progressive National Baptist Convention (PNBC).

About the Progressive National Baptist Convention (PNBC)

The Progressive National Baptist Convention, Inc. (PNBC) is a Baptist convention formed in 1961, when civil rights era Baptist leaders organized a new convention committed to social witness alongside preaching and congregational life. Its member churches are autonomous: each congregation governs itself, and churches join the convention voluntarily for fellowship, missions, and shared work. The convention self-reports roughly 1,300 to 1,800 congregations and 1.5 to 2.5 million members, while outside enumerations are far lower; we state the convention's own figures as self-reported, not as settled fact. The PNBC is a separate body from the National Baptist Convention, USA, the older convention from which its founders came, and this page is about the PNBC alone.

The convention gathers each year in an annual session, a defining week of preaching, teaching, and business for member churches, and regional and state bodies carry the work between sessions. Strong preaching and a public social witness run through PNBC life, and local churches put that witness to work in their own neighborhoods through feeding, housing, voting, and youth ministries.

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

A PNBC congregation gathers around preaching and worship on Sunday, then moves through Bible study, choir rehearsals, ministry meetings, and community work all week, and joins sister churches at the annual session each year. 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 hosts the session, launches a ministry, or changes giving platforms.

Sanctuary, preaching, and Sunday worship

Preaching and music carry the service, and the offering is a taught, celebrated part of it. Discs on chair backs and pew ends let a member or guest give in that moment, without downloading an app or hunting for a link.

Annual session and convention gatherings

The annual session and regional meetings gather autonomous churches in hotels, convention centers, and host sanctuaries. Discs at welcome and registration tables open the page the host chooses for that gathering, then go back to Sunday giving when it ends.

Social witness and community ministry

Feeding programs, voter registration drives, and neighborhood ministries draw people who may never attend on Sunday. Discs at a ministry table can open a support page for that work, then return to regular giving in the dashboard, with no new printing.

Church anniversaries and special services

Anniversaries, revivals, and appreciation services are major giving moments in a Baptist church's year. Discs at celebration services and banquets can open a special giving page for the occasion, set per group in the dashboard.

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 tables. Pastors and delegates from sister churches meet the same simple way to give where they gather.

Built for autonomous congregations with a shared witness

A PNBC church can host the annual session, start a new community ministry, or change giving platforms in the same season it marks a century 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 sanctuary, the fellowship hall, and the annual session venue. When the destination changes, you change a setting, not a print run.

From the Sunday sanctuary to the annual session hall, 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.

Churches live on changing links: an annual session gets its own page, a community ministry appeal gives way to everyday giving, 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 at an annual session table.

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 sanctuary and fellowship hall, a congregation that hosts session or district gatherings, or a church running community ministries across several rooms. 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 PNBC churches ask

Is Tap.Giving affiliated with The Progressive National Baptist Convention (PNBC)?

No. This page is a resource we wrote for churches in the Progressive National Baptist Convention (PNBC). Tap.Giving is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Progressive National Baptist Convention (PNBC). We make tap-to-give discs for any church; this page simply explains why they fit PNBC congregations, from Sunday preaching and worship to the annual session and community ministry.

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 or annual session 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 point an annual session or a community ministry appeal at its own page next month, without reprinting anything.

Is the PNBC the same as the National Baptist Convention, USA?

No. They are separate Baptist conventions. The Progressive National Baptist Convention was formed in 1961, growing out of the civil rights movement era, and it holds its own annual session under its own leadership. The National Baptist Convention, USA is an older, separate body, and it has its own page here. Tap.Giving makes discs for any church, whichever convention it belongs to, and the discs work the same either way.

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.
