Givelify
Givelify connects people with places of worship, nonprofits, and causes so they can give through its mobile app, online, on social media, or at live events. Organizations can use Analytics Studio to track donations by day, month, or donor, review donor statistics such as giving frequency and trends, and export data for financial management systems.
Givelify lists integrations including Shelby Next, Shelby Arena, Power Church, Servant Keeper, ACS Realm, and ACS People, and says Analytics Studio integrations are free. The platform runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Its app is available in English and Spanish, with bilingual resources for organizations. Givelify says it verifies organizations and safeguards personal and payment information through secure payment processing. Its support center says the app does not store a giver's card information on their phone.
