Online giving designed for Canadian churches — cards and EFT/PAD, funds and campaigns, receipts and reconciliation in the same system as your finances.
Giving data lives in a separate platform from the ledger it has to reconcile with — and Canadian churches pay card rates on gifts a bank debit would carry for cents.
Giving is designed and visible in the product today, and deliberately not live: no real payments move until our payment-partner, privacy and receipting reviews are complete. Tara stores tokens and references — never raw card or bank details.
What becomes easier
- One-time and recurring gifts land in the same data model your reports read from
- Canadian EFT/PAD alongside cards, so recurring givers can use the lower-cost rail
- Settlement batches reconcile to the ledger instead of to a monthly headache
- CRA-compliant receipts issue from the same records — no re-keying donor data

The giving path
From a gift to a reconciled ledger
Designed end to end, and deliberately not processing money until our payment-partner, privacy and receipting reviews are complete.
01
Give
Card or Canadian EFT/PAD, one-time or recurring.
02
Process
Handled by regulated providers. Tara stores tokens, never card details.
03
Receipt
CRA-compliant receipts issued from the same donor records.
04
Reconcile
Settlement batches matched to the ledger, not to a spreadsheet.
05
Report
Giving appears in the same reports as everything else.
What Tara Giving can do
Each capability carries its own label (Available · Beta · Preview · Coming Soon) — the whole module doesn't inherit the maturity of its best part.
Can I use this without switching everything?
Yes — that's the design. Tara Connect lets Tara Giving work alongside the systems you keep, and every organization designates its own system of record per domain. Consolidate when Tara has earned it, not before.
