Note this is only available in the US.

Currently, I don't think you can. The church had not yet made arrangements for it yet.

Online donations are only supported in the U.S. for members using the U.S. banking system. A few exceptions have been made for service members and others who are outside the country, but who still use U.S. checking or savings accounts. Other than that, online donations is not available outside of the United States at this time.

It may be possible for you to use some form of bank bill pay system. You would have to check with your area office to determine if that is available in your area. Even if there is not a way to electronically transfer the funds directly to the Church, many members used bank bill pay to print a check from the bank that they they then placed in a donation envelope and gave to the bishop before any type of online donation system was available in the U.S.

Judging by the help files, i think Brazil is online now. But that's it: US and Brazil.

Given the different banking systems, currency, and laws; it's not possible to go world-wide all at once. It will likely to be currency by currency if not country by country.

As far as I know, Online Donations is only available in the U.S. and Brazil. If Puerto Rico uses the regular U.S. banking system with ACH transfers, there is a possibility you might be able to donate online.

Here is a question that may not have been considered by those who developed the online tithing system.

What about expats whose money and banking is all in the United States, but who are living abroad and need to pay tithing using their bank accounts in the US?

I moved with my family to Costa Rica for a year, but we have our bank accounts in the United States, and we'd like to be able to use those accounts to pay tithing. There are several reasons why it does not make sense to pull out cash to pay tithing here, including lots of fees incurred by ATMs, which only allow you to pull out up to $400 in each transaction, and the potential issue of paying significant amounts of cash to bishopric members who may not be used to that and who might find themselves tempted.

Is there some way to get an exception in the case where you've temporarily left your real life in the United States, but you still do your banking there?

There are indeed other options for people with special needs in this regard. Contact donations@ldschurch.org and explain your situation.

I would really like to set up a recurring payment. This currently is not possible. The FAQ says:

Q15. Why can’t I set up a recurring donation using the system?
A15. Recurring donations are not allowed online.

So, why can’t I set up a recurring donation using the system? Does anyone have an actual answer?

In lieu of having a donation initiated on the church's side does anyone have experience with bank-initiated online bill pay? The FAQ alludes to this being possible, but I'd like to know what the pros and cons are. For example, would fast offerings be credited to my ward? They're not with in-kind donations like stock.

Thanks.

One "con" is that donations are not refundable. If something should happen, such as you lose your job, you'd have to modify the payment quickly.

Depending on how it's set up, the fast offering may or may not be visible to your ward, but there is no "crediting". It does not change how much money is available to help others in the ward.

The simple answer is that the Church has not done the programming to allow recurring donations. That would take time and money, and would have to be a priority over the other uses of that time and money. Are there other reasons? That I don't know.
davemc wrote:In lieu of having a donation initiated on the church's side does anyone have experience with bank-initiated online bill pay? The FAQ alludes to this being possible, but I'd like to know what the pros and cons are.
I have used my bank's bill-pay. It requires initial setup with the Donations department, which required a couple of email exchanges.

The pros:
  • Automatic recurring payments are easily done. Of course the "easily" part depends on your particular bank's interface, but once it is set up, you don't have to remember to make the donations each month or week or whatever.
  • Different categories can have different recurring periods. For example, fast offerings might be done on a monthly basis, but you get paid every two weeks, so you set up your tithing to be done on a biweekly basis.
  • If your bank's BillPay system can be connected to your personal financial software (such as Quicken), then you can maintain your BillPay settings from the same software you use to manage the rest of your banking.
  • As with all donations made via Online Donations or in person to a bishopric member, donations made via BillPay are also included in statements you generate using the Online Donations tool on LDS.org.
The cons:
  • Extra effort to set up the system is a bit of a hassle (but just a one-time hassle).
  • Donations to Ward Missionary on behalf of a specific missionary are not possible (neither within your ward or in another ward), as they are with Online Donations.
  • The automatic nature of recurring payments can make it easy to overlook the need to make adjustments when your situation changes. Your bank will blindly send the payments as you specified, even if your income changes.
davemc wrote:For example, would fast offerings be credited to my ward? They're not with in-kind donations like stock.
As RussellHltn noted, this is a very minor point that people generally shouldn't worry about. But yes, such fast offering donations are credited to your ward, exactly as with Online Donations.

Very good answers. We have one sister in my ward who has her bank's bill-pay mail a check to the bishop's house. We find that solution impractical for a few reasons. First, the bishop and his wife have to hold the check and remember to bring it to church. Second, we have to fill out a donation slip for each check. Third, we just had a change of bishop, and I don't know where she is mailing those checks now.

I do not have answers for that question, but I have a few questions that might help someone else find an answer:

What browser, browser version, operating system, and operating system release are you using?

Is your LDS Account connected to your Church membership record?

Are you able to see your ward/stake directory and calendar?

Have you previously used the online donation functionality?

Okay, the answers to the above questions might help someone find an answer to the original question.

There's been a few posts like that today. I suspect either the servers are overloaded or the servers are having problems. In the worst case, these kinds of things tend to get fixed when the church employees return to work.

Re: Pay tithing online / Tithing Settlement

Is there any possibility in the future that Church members could declare tithing status (tithing settlement) online via the donations area? This could save Bishops a lot of time.

I don't know. We're rarely told that kind of stuff ahead of time. The bigger question is if that's something the Brethren will approve. It's possible they want members to see the bishop. It gives him a chance to connect with members he doesn't normally see.

So online donations just became active in my area in Canada and I did my first one today. The process was exceptionally easy and fast. The only issue I have with the process is not related to the donation system itself but with the entire LDS Account as a whole. The system only allows me to utilize one e-mail address for my whole account. I would prefer being able to use multiple addresses. For example, my wife and I set up our online presence with different e-mail addresses for different things. We have one for financial related issues, another one for family history research, still another for general family communication, etc.

Go to LDS.org and select Donations in the middle column of the drop down menu by your name or My Account and Ward near the top right.

Use your LDS Account name and password (which I have deleted -- this is a public forum) to access your Donations account.

I was deployed overseas last year and lost access to FamilySearch. I used the feedback on LDS.org to post my situation and they granted access (as a US citizen, I was allowed access even though I was in a foreign nation that did not normally allow access) while I was deployed.

You might try this route.

Or, you can do direct: https://www.lds.org/donations/

Note that on-line donations is only turned on for certain countries. It's not world-wide.

Is your Church membership record in a ward or branch in the US? If not, is online donation enabled in the country where your record is located?

Do you have an LDS Account that is connected to your Membership Record Number (MRN)? If not, you'll need to create an LDS Account and/or connect your MRN to it.

Once you sign in with your LDS Account, are you able to see your ward/branch directory and calendar?

But the question of ward, country, and even browser compatibility remain.

You use your LDS Account. She can use the same computer and browser, go to LDS.org and sign in with her own LDS Account, and she will be taken to her records when she clicks on Donations. She will then be able to donate online.

You can't do that from within your account. She will have to create her own account if she doesn't have one already.

To set up a new account, log out and then from any LDS login screen, click on "Register for an LDS Account".

Although I suspect you have mentioned this because something has happened and you are no longer able to pay online.

If you have moved to an area where online donations are not available, but you are still using a U.S. checking or
savings account, and you intend to use one of those accounts for your donations, if you email donations@ldschurch.org they will help you.

And if my mind reading skills are not sufficient and you are willing to share your situation, there may be other suggestions available.

The only way I know if that you could have done that is to log in as your wife. I know of no way you can pay tithing in behalf of another.

Maybe she changed her password.

I don't think there's any way to automatically set up tithing payments. At least not from the church side.

The on-line donation system requires each payment be done manually.

As russellhltn said, the Church Donations site will not allow you to do this. You would have to set up something using your bank bill pay system.

That said, once you enter the Donation link, it only takes 5 clicks to complete the process, and you easily can select a previous donation to duplicate. I thought I would want to keep using my bank bill pay system, but I have found it is just as easy to put an alert in my calendar and then make the payment in real time at the Church site.

Online donations normally do not cross country boundaries. You will need to have a bank account in Mexico to make donations online in Mexico.

If you are only in Mexico temporarily and you expect to have funds and wish to contribute using a U.S. bank account, the Donations Department has been able to set an account to allow it, but your local Mexico ward will not see any of those contributions.

Before you try to set up online banking bill pay at your bank website, you should contact donations@ldschurch.org and request the proper information so that the electronic transfer will work properly. They will be able to give you the correct account number and other important donation information so that the bank will not wind up printing and mailing a check to Church headquarters.

You will also want to have considered using the Donations link at LDS.org if possible.

There's a possibility doing all of the following might solve the problem: 1) clear your browser cache; 2) delete all cookies from lds.org (or all cookies entirely); 3) force a complete page reload (Shift-Control-R in Firefox, perhaps something else in other browsers). If doing all three of those does not help, send feedback, clearly stating that you have done the three things above, and describe your browser and release/version.

We currently are stationed in the UK as part of a US military assignment for the next three years. We paid online donations in our last Ward in Virginia. We are now assigned to a UK Ward and noticed we can no longer make online donations. This is no doubt due to the fact it has not been set up in the UK yet. The Ward only accepts Pound Sterling donations, but being in the US Military, my salary is paid in USD. Is there any way online donations can be turned back on for our account? We still use the US banking system and need to pay our donations in USD.

Paying tithing online is dependent on the country you live in. Not all countries are set up for this program. If you live in the U.S. you can go to LDS.org and sign in. Then click the My Account and Ward link and select Donations in the middle column under My Ward. You can then read the instructions to setup and manage your donations settings and banking accounts by clicking the Help menu item on the left of the Donations page.

I believe Australia has an online donation system, but I am not familiar with it. I would suspect that it requires a bank account at an Australian bank. Your account in New Zealand probably would not work. Most online systems are country specific.

Your best source of information will probably be a ward clerk in Australia once you arrive there. He should be able to explain all of your options to you so that you may continue to contribute electronically, whether by way of a bank bill pay system or using a Church online donation system, if available in that country.

Pay fast offerings to home ward

I am a senior missionary serving in the United States and have been advised to pay my fast offerings to my home ward. Is there a way to do this on line?
Community Moderators
#84
If your home ward is in the U.S. and you are using a U.S. checking or savings account, then yes. You would contribute to the fast offering fund the same way you would pay tithing online. Go to donations.lds.org to begin the process. You will need your bank routing number and your account number the first time you contribute.
Community Administrator
#85
Generally the online donations "go" to the ward your membership record is located in. And since membership records are rarely transferred to the mission when serving a mission, it should work just fine. However, it requires that your home country has online donations.

In anticipation of the next question, when you begin contributing to the ward where you are living and serving, you will need to use one of the donation envelopes with the name of the bishop on it.

But this is only for fast offering. Everything else would go to your home ward and may be contributed electronically.

Speak with your ward clerk to learn if there is a system in your country for making donations online. The Church has not set up systems to do so in all countries. Each system for contributing is country specific.

Same here. A short cut to the donation page, sure. But an app? I'm not aware of any such app created by the church.

Not that I know of. But if your records changed to a new country that doesn't have on-line donations, that could explain what you see.

This link should take you to a sign-in page and then the donations page where the tithing slip is located: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/don ... tion/step1
You must have your correct membership number linked to your account.
You must live in a country where online donations are set up.

Your local ward or branch clerk is your first step if you are having problems. He can assist you in making sure everything is correct and can get additional official assistance if needed.

Hi,
I currently reside in Beijing China
I wish to make an electronic transfer of money earned in Australia by means of online banking from my Australian held account.
I wish to have the donation receipted in Austalia to meet the Australian Tax Office reqirements.
My father and mother are acting as my Power of attorneys. My australian address is [address removed]

They are members of the [redacted] Ward , [redacted] Stake and authorised by me to make donations on my behalf.
They donate reglarly online and they have sought and obtained approval from Bishop Togia to pay it through his unit.
They cannot find the path to enable them to pay my Australian earned donation, inmy name.
Is there a solution?
Where can I go to receive help with htis matter

The system is not set up to allow others to act in your behalf.

I'd suggest emailing onlinedonationsupport@ldschurch.org. They may be able to flag your account so that you can donate to the church in Australia using an Australian bank account.

The answer is discussed in the "Perpetual education fund?" thread.

The instructional video is out of date and needs to be updated. You can submit feedback using the feedback link at the bottom of the video page.

1) Live in a country that has on-line donations (such as the US).
2) You must have a compatible account type such as checking or savings (that allow ACH transactions). Credit or Debit cards will not work.
3) Go to https://donations.churchofjesuschrist.org/

Your ward or branch clerk should be able to tell you if it is possible in your country and assist if there are any questions. He is first-line tech support for the members of his unit and can provide your membership number if you don't already have it linked to your login.

I think I am making an assumption about what you are asking. If I am incorrect, then could you elaborate?

An expat of one country where online donations are supported but who have moved to another country may be able to continue to make online donations as long as the donations are made in the currency of their home country and drawing on a bank account of their home country. Send an email to onlinedonationsupport@churchofjesuschrist.org explaining your situation and that you would like to continue to make online donations as you did in your home country.

Once you get to the donations page, you can bookmark it. Later, when you select the bookmark, you will be taken to the login page and on to the donations page after you login.

If you are using the same computer, you need to log off your church account and he needs to log on with his. If you have saved the login in the browser so it logs you on automatically, logging off from your account should present a logon option that he can use.

There are a few/several types of donations, and tithing is one of those types. Not all countries have online donation available. Ask your bishop or ward/branch clerk whether online donations are available in your area.

For North America, it's at donations.churchofjesuschrist.org. It probably works for other countries that use the churchofjesuschrist.org domain (if available).

If you have a different domain for the church page for your area, then I'd go to that page and look for donations.

It might be the cookie build-up problem. The optional test is to try in a private or incognito window. The solution is to clear the browser's cache and delete any Church-related cookies. If that does not work, you could send feedback and request a response. In your feedback, make sure to say you cleared the cache and deleted cookies (or that will be the first response you will receive).
