Giving that quietly takes care of itself.

Your people give the way they want, online or in the plate, and every gift lands in one honest ledger. It knows the giver, moves their pledge along, feeds their year-end statement, and posts to the books on its own. You never touch a card number, and the plate and the ledger always agree.

You didn't become a priest to chase pledges.

A shoebox of checks. A spreadsheet only the treasurer understands. A scramble every January for statements. Families who quietly drift, and no one notices until the pledge card doesn't come back. Money is the last thing a parish should have to worry about, so Symphonia turns all of it into one calm ledger that mostly runs itself, and hands the treasurer books an auditor would smile at.

Every gift, on the right fund.

Donors, funds, pledges, and the whole giving picture in one place. See it at the office, or from your phone on the drive home.

Pledges & campaigns

A goal the whole parish can watch fill.

Set an annual pledge or launch a campaign with a deadline, and real gifts fill a live thermometer. Publish it on your website or keep it to the council. When a pledge falls behind pace, Symphonia can queue a gentle reminder. And every dollar is tracked against its fund, so a building gift never quietly pays the electric bill.

Statements & reports

Tax season, in a single run.

Generate the whole parish's year-end contribution statements at once, on your own letterhead, combined or separate exactly as each household prefers, and hand them out as one tidy download. Then the reports a treasurer actually asks for are a click away: lapsed families, top households, new givers, pledge fulfillment, and the fund mix. The lapsed-families report is really pastoral care in disguise, the families to call before they slip away.

Giving doesn't sit in a silo.

The honest answers.

Do we ever touch a card number?

Never. Card payments run through Stripe, and the parish never sees or stores a card. You get the gift and the receipt; the sensitive part is handled for you.

What happens to our old giving history?

It comes with you. We import years of history when you switch, so lifetime totals, statements, and lapsed-family reports are whole from day one.

Can the council see who gives what?

Only who you allow. Council members can see donors and engagement while every dollar amount stays hidden. The numbers stay with the treasurer and rector.

Is it really double-entry accounting?

Yes. Every gift posts a balanced journal entry to ParishBooks, so your books and the plate always agree, and an auditor has nothing to untangle.

What about a gift with no name on it?

Symphonia flags every unattributed online gift and lets you match it to a parishioner in one click, so nothing sits in a limbo account.

Does online giving work on an older phone?

Yes. The donate page works as a plain form, so a gift goes through even on a browser or phone that blocks scripts.
