Frequently Asked Questions

Cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual form of currency that uses cryptography for security. It allows for seamless, transparent transactions and can be used for donations, tithes, missions, and fundraising efforts within your church community.

Accepting cryptocurrency allows your church to connect with younger, tech-savvy donors and provides an additional, cost-effective way for people to give. It also enables tax-efficient donations and the potential for long-term asset growth. Plus, once your church owns its ENS domain, there are ZERO fees to accept cryptocurrency donations.

ENS (Ethereum Name Service) is a decentralized domain naming system that simplifies cryptocurrency transactions. Instead of using long, complex wallet addresses—like 3DzycXCevVaErSeL4Yw55LzDAbT2CeDdTt—your church can receive donations through an easy-to-remember ENS name like yourchurch.eth.

Getting started is simple. We’ll help set up a secure cryptocurrency wallet, configure an ENS name for easy transactions, and provide training to ensure your church can confidently accept and manage crypto donations.

Yes! Once your church owns an ENS domain (e.g., yourchurch.eth), you can create subdomains for different causes:

• missions.yourchurch.eth – Direct donations to your church’s mission fund.
• youth.yourchurch.eth – Contributions specifically for youth programs.
• joesmith.yourchurch.eth – If a church member is going through a difficult time, they can receive direct donations through a dedicated subdomain.

Each subdomain is linked to a separate wallet, allowing funds to be automatically allocated. You can give direct access to the intended recipient or manage disbursements yourselves.

Each cryptocurrency transaction is recorded on the blockchain, providing a transparent and immutable record. These records can be exported and integrated into your existing accounting systems.

It’s as simple as sharing your yourchurch.eth address. We recommend:

• Adding it to your website, bulletins, or newsletters
• Mentioning it during services or online announcements
• Providing your ENS in printed materials
  We’re here to guide you on the best ways to communicate crypto giving in a clear, welcoming way.

We offer full technical support, including ENS setup, wallet configuration, and training. We also provide ongoing assistance to ensure a smooth experience.

We provide educational materials, video tutorials, and one-on-one guidance. Your finance team will also receive training on securing crypto funds using cold storage wallets.

You can discontinue crypto donations at any time. However, as adoption grows, cryptocurrency may become a standard method of giving, making it beneficial to stay ahead of the curve.

Most churches can start within a week of purchasing. We’ll handle the entire setup—from registering your ENS domain to configuring your Ledger wallet—so you can accept crypto donations quickly and confidently.

If a trusted staff member leaves, you can simply update the passcode on your Ledger device—this code controls physical access to the wallet. However, if trust is  compromised, the safest option is to set up a new wallet with a fresh seed phrase. Don’t worry—this process isn’t complicated, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Remember, the seed phrase is your ultimate backup and should only be entrusted to a few key individuals. While the passcode is extremely important, it only works with the physical Ledger device in hand. By managing these two security layers wisely, your church can adapt to leadership changes without risking funds.

It may seem volatile in the short term, but if you zoom out and look at the long-term trend—especially with Bitcoin—you’ll see consistent growth. The historical graph shows that Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies have only increased in value over extended periods. With countries, states, corporations, and individuals slowly adopting cryptocurrency, this is simply a supply and demand equation. As adoption increases, so does the value.

It’s important to comply with local, state, and federal regulations regarding cryptocurrency donations. Many churches already accept crypto, and we can provide guidance to ensure compliance. Consulting with your financial team or CPA is recommended.

Cryptocurrency transactions are secured by blockchain technology, making them transparent, tamper-proof, and highly secure. Unlike credit cards, they cannot be reversed or fraudulently charged back.

No worries—your private keys are backed up by a steel seed phrase. If your Ledger is lost or damaged, you can restore your funds on a new device using this seed phrase. We’ll show you exactly how to store and safeguard it.

Some cryptocurrency wallets do not support ENS names. If that’s the case, you can post your wallet address directly on your website so donors can easily access it. Additionally, we provide a simple link that displays all wallet addresses for each type of cryptocurrency your church accepts. Donors can simply copy and paste the correct address for their preferred currency and complete their donation seamlessly.

Some services allow people to donate cryptocurrency using a credit card, but this is very different from receiving direct crypto donations:

• With ENS-based donations, someone can simply send cryptocurrency from their wallet to the church’s wallet—no third party required.
• There are zero fees for the church—unlike traditional payment services that charge processing fees.
• There are no fees for the sender beyond the normal gas fee (a small transaction cost required to process payments on the blockchain, similar to a bank wire fee but usually much lower).

This method is a true peer-to-peer donation, giving both the donor and the church full control without any intermediaries.

You’re in control. While we can set you up for over 100 different cryptocurrencies, you’re free to accept only those you prefer—like Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any other specific coins you trust.

Yes. We’ll show you how to exchange cryptocurrency for U.S. dollars through a reputable platform. Some churches prefer to convert right away, while others hold crypto as a long-term asset—either way, you have options.

To get started, simply reach out to us, and we’ll guide you through the process of securing your ENS domain, setting up a crypto wallet, and integrating donations into your church’s giving system.
