Q: What is online giving?
Our online giving program is a convenient way for you to make a contribution to the church. If you are unable to get to the church, forgot your offering or simply like the convenience of paying online, this service is for you.

Q: What are the payment options for online giving?
After you have signed up for a PayPal account, all you need to do is add your credit or debit card to your account. You can also use your PayPal balance or your checking account to fund your payment. Check out the "Profile" section when logged into PayPal to add and manage payment options.

Q: Does it cost money to sign up for PayPal?
No. It is free to open and send money using a PayPal account. See www.paypal.com for full details and account options.

Q: Is PayPal secure?
Yes. PayPal uses SSL technology to keep your information safe. In addition, when you send a payment using PayPal, the recipient won't receive sensitive financial information like your credit card or bank account number. This way, you don't have to worry about paying people you don't know.

Q: How can I keep a record of the amount I have contributed?
You can log into your PayPal account and view recent activity under your account. Visit www.paypal.com for more information. If you are current member of Flamingo Road Church, we will continue to provide you with a personal giving statement for your tax records.

Q: Can I designate my giving online?
Yes, you can choose to have your gift posted to General Stewardship giving, 5/52 Special Events/Concert giving, Building Fund, or to the Designate Other (specify in comment field) fund.

Q: How do I participate in the weekly offering if I give online?
If you wish, you can write "I'm giving online" on the giving envelope and place it in the offering basket, but it is not necessary.

Q: Is there any charge to me from my bank to give online?
No. You select the dollar amount for your gift. That is the dollar amount that will be charged to your account.

Q: Who do I talk to if I have more questions?
Email Pastor Steve Wells @ pastorsteve@thenpc.org  or call the church office (813) 545-9420. We will be glad to answer any other questions you may have.
