Tap.Giving
The Perfect Giving Combo
You already have a trusted church giving platform. Now add the hardware that sends people to it with a single tap.
How It Works With Vanco
Tap.Giving plates are NFC-enabled cards that open any URL when tapped with a phone. Point them at your Vanco online giving page. It’s that simple.
Order Your Plates
Choose your quantity. We’ll produce custom-branded NFC plates with your church logo and a backup QR code.
Link to Vanco
Each plate is programmed with your Vanco giving URL. When someone taps, their phone opens your Vanco donation page instantly.
Guests Give Instantly
Visitors tap the plate with their phone. No app download, no account creation. They give through Vanco in under 15 seconds.
Vanco Is Powerful. But It Has One Blind Spot
Vanco is built for online, mobile, and text giving. But what about the people sitting in your sanctuary on Sunday morning?
First-Time Visitors
First-time guests won’t download the Vanco Mobile app just to give once. A tap plate takes them directly to your Vanco giving page in one tap.
Holiday Crowds
Easter and Christmas Eve bring 2-3x your normal attendance. These guests are ready to give. They just need a frictionless way to do it.
Community Events
Outreach events, fundraisers, and off-site gatherings bring people who’ll never open an app. A tap plate turns goodwill into giving.
Why This Combo Just Works
Vanco handles the money
Payment processing, recurring giving, reporting, and 60+ church management system integrations. Vanco does all of this. You don’t need another platform.
Tap.Giving handles the first touch
NFC tap plates bridge the physical-to-digital gap. A visitor taps, their browser opens your Vanco giving page, and they give. No app. No friction.
No double-dipping on fees
Tap.Giving doesn’t charge processing fees, monthly subscriptions, or per-transaction costs. You pay once for the plates and use them forever. All payment processing stays in Vanco.
First-time givers become recurring givers
When a guest gives through your Vanco page via a tap plate, they’re now in your Vanco system. From there, you can invite them into recurring giving, all within the platform you already manage.

Common Questions from Vanco Churches
“Do I need to switch away from Vanco?”
Absolutely not. Tap.Giving plates simply open your existing Vanco online giving page. All donations still process through Vanco. Nothing changes in your workflow.
“Does this add another monthly bill?”
No. You pay once for the plates. That’s it. No monthly fees, no per-transaction charges, no subscription. Vanco handles all payment processing as usual.
“Will my giving data still show up in Vanco?”
Yes. Since donors go directly to your Vanco giving page, every gift shows up in your Vanco dashboard, reports, and any church management system you have connected. Tap.Giving doesn’t touch your data.
“How is this different from the Vanco Mobile app or text giving?”
The Vanco Mobile app asks a giver to download it first, and text giving asks a first-time donor to save a card by text. A tap plate skips both. A visitor taps the plate and your Vanco giving page opens right in their browser. It’s a one-time hardware cost with no app and no monthly fee.
“How do I set up the plates with my Vanco URL?”
Just tell us your Vanco online giving link when you order. We’ll program every plate for you. If you ever need to change the URL, you can do it yourself with a free NFC app in 30 seconds.
