New Recurring Giving Options: Monthly, Quarterly, and Annual

Turn one-time gifts into steady, dependable support. Your supporters set up a gift once and choose how often it repeats, so your team can plan around funding you can count on.

A simpler way for donors to keep giving

Recurring giving turns a single decision into ongoing impact. A supporter chooses their amount and how often they want to give, and the gift repeats automatically until they decide to change or stop it. No reminders to send, no re-asking, no gaps in support.

Donors choose the rhythm that works for them:

  • Monthly for steady, everyday partners in your mission
  • Quarterly for supporters who prefer to give a few times a year
  • Annually for renewing pledges and yearly commitments

Where you can use it

Recurring giving works across the places your donors already give:

  • Child sponsorships
  • Fundraisers and campaigns
  • Mission trips
  • Donor giving accounts

Why it matters for your team

Most organizations spend heavily to win a new donor, then lose many of them within the first year. Every lapsed gift is revenue your team has to replace before you can grow. Recurring giving protects that hard-won support by keeping donors engaged automatically.

Predictable revenue

Recurring gifts give you a dependable baseline you can budget and plan around.

Less manual work

No re-asking or chasing renewals. The gift continues on its own.

A rhythm per donor

Supporters give the way that fits them, which makes it easier to say yes and stay.

Stronger retention

Ongoing giving keeps donors connected to your mission over the long term.

How teams use it

  • A sponsor commits to a child every month without needing a reminder
  • A supporter gives quarterly toward a building or program campaign
  • An annual ministry partner renews automatically each year
  • A trip participant raises support through steady monthly contributions

Keep the donors you already have

It costs far more to find a new donor than to keep an existing one. Recurring giving keeps supporters engaged automatically, and when a scheduled payment does not go through, Pure Charity works to recover it, so an expired card does not quietly turn a committed supporter into a lost one.

Common questions

Which frequencies can donors choose?

Donors can set a gift to repeat monthly, quarterly, or annually, whichever fits their giving.

Can a donor change or cancel a recurring gift?

Yes. Donors can update the amount, change the frequency, or stop a recurring gift at any time.

What happens if a scheduled payment fails?

Pure Charity automatically retries and works to recover the payment, and keeps the donor informed, so a lapsed card does not become a lost gift.

Where does recurring giving work across our programs?

It is available across sponsorships, fundraisers and campaigns, mission trips, and donor giving accounts.

Do donors need an account to set up recurring giving?

Donors set up a recurring gift as part of the normal giving flow. A donor giving account lets them manage everything in one place.

Is there an extra cost to turn it on?

Recurring giving is part of your Pure Charity platform. Schedule a demo and we will confirm what is included for your organization.
