03 What are the main features of Pushpay?

Users report that the contracts are inflexible, with no ability to move to month-to-month billing or cancel mid-term without continuing to pay the full monthly fee through the entire contract period, even after migrating to a different platform.

07 Can donors give to multiple church funds in a single transaction?

No, Pushpay does not currently allow donors to split a single transaction across multiple funds. Donors must make separate transactions for each fund they wish to support, which can create friction in the giving experience.

08 How does Pushpay pricing compare to alternatives like Tithe.ly?

Users consistently report that Pushpay's fees are significantly higher than competing church giving platforms. One church found Pushpay and Subsplash both cost approximately $3,000/year, while Planning Center would have cost over $6,000/year. Multiple reviewers cite high fees as their primary reason for switching away from Pushpay to alternatives like Tithe.ly or integrated church management system giving modules.
