Digital Generosity Reimagined: ChariTouch and ChariHome Powering Faith and Nonprofit Giving
Donors expect the same simplicity and speed from charitable giving that they experience when purchasing a coffee or ordering a ride. ChariTouch and ChariHome meet that expectation with a unified, secure platform that makes generosity effortless across sanctuaries, lobbies, events, and living rooms. By pairing elegant donation kiosk hardware with intuitive software, these solutions help ministries and nonprofits remove friction, capture impulse gifts at the moment of inspiration, and illuminate impact with transparent, real-time reporting. Whether the mission is feeding families, expanding a youth program, or supporting relief efforts, digital giving stations and at-home tools create more pathways for people to participate.
As contactless payments have become the norm, organizations that embrace modern giving channels see more consistent revenue, broader donor participation, and better data. With contactless giving, donors tap, swipe, or scan and are done in seconds—no paper checks, no fumbling for cash, and no forms to complete. The result is a more welcoming, accessible experience that reflects the excellence of the mission it supports.
About ChariTouch
ChariTouch is a leading provider of donation kiosk solutions for churches and synagogues, nonprofits, and charitable organizations across the USA. Its giving kiosks have helped raise millions for worthy causes by combining enterprise-grade security with donor-first design. Built for high-traffic environments, the kiosks support EMV chip cards, NFC tap-to-pay, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, ensuring fast, familiar transactions and fewer barriers to engagement. Every touchpoint—from the welcome screen to the confirmation message—can be customized to match the organization’s brand, voice, and campaign strategy.
Faith communities and nonprofits choose ChariTouch because it amplifies generosity while simplifying operations. Administrators gain real-time dashboards that map donations by campaign, event, or location; automated reconciliation and recurring gift options stabilize monthly revenue; and integrations connect data to church management systems and donor CRMs for accurate records and personalized follow-up. Built-in compliance and encryption protect every transaction, while ADA-conscious layouts and multilingual prompts ensure the experience is inclusive. For many partners, rolling out kiosks results in up to a 40% increase in donations as more people participate during services, fundraisers, and community gatherings.
The platform extends beyond the sanctuary with ChariHome, a companion approach that brings the same ease of use to remote donors. QR codes, short links, and mobile-optimized flows allow congregants and supporters to give from home during livestreams, small groups, or seasonal campaigns. This omnichannel design unites in-person and at-home generosity under one secure system, so leaders get a holistic picture of engagement and donors enjoy a consistent, trustworthy experience wherever they choose to give.
Transform Charitable Giving with Digital Donation Kiosks
Every appeal competes with limited attention and limited time. Digital donation kiosks solve both challenges by putting a fast, tactile giving moment right where inspiration occurs—at the entrance to a sanctuary, beside a display telling a family’s story, or near a table where volunteers register for a mission trip. The screens can feature rotating campaigns, goal thermometers, or short testimonials, aligning storytelling with a simple tap-to-give action. When people see impact and can respond in seconds, participation climbs, and so does the average gift.
On busy weekends and special holidays, contactless giving helps organizations accommodate spikes in attendance without bottlenecks. Instead of lines at a staffed table, donors self-serve at clearly marked kiosks, confirm their gift on-screen, and receive a digital receipt immediately. For privacy, the flow minimizes on-screen data entry; for transparency, donors can select a fund (general, building, benevolence), set a recurring schedule, or dedicate a gift in honor of someone. These options encourage intentional generosity and foster a sense of shared ownership in the mission.
The same philosophy powers ChariHome: meet supporters wherever they are and make participation effortless. During livestreams, a QR code on-screen can open a secure mobile page tied to the service’s campaign. For small-group leaders, a short link shared by text turns conversations into action. Seasonal drives—back-to-school backpacks, holiday food baskets, humanitarian relief—can be launched across in-venue kiosks and at-home flows simultaneously, with unified reporting that shows progress in real time. Organizations spotlight wins quickly: “500 meals funded by Sunday at noon,” or “New ADA ramp funded at 83%—help us cross the finish line.” That immediacy inspires continued momentum.
Case studies echo these results. A midwestern church placed two kiosks by the main exits and used ChariHome links during livestreams; over six months, digital giving grew from 22% to 61% of total contributions, helping stabilize the budget through summer. A synagogue launched a capital campaign with dedicated screens highlighting architectural renderings and raised a significant portion of pledges on-site. A coastal nonprofit serving families after natural disasters deployed kiosks at community hubs and paired them with volunteer sign-up QR codes; more donors gave on the spot, and more volunteers registered within the same 48-hour period. The thread through each example is clear: remove friction, share impact, and generosity accelerates.
How Our Donation Kiosk System Works
Get your charity kiosk up and running in days, not weeks. Deployment is designed to be swift and frictionless so that organizations start engaging donors immediately. The process begins with a tailored discovery to match goals, budgets, and environments, followed by a guided rollout plan covering hardware placement, software configuration, and staff readiness. Within a week, most partners are collecting secure, contactless gifts and viewing real-time results.
Schedule Consultation. Donation kiosk experts analyze the organization’s current giving mix, event cadence, and donor demographics to recommend the right combination of in-venue devices and ChariHome links. The consultation clarifies priority funds, messaging, and accessibility considerations, and maps each kiosk to foot traffic patterns. When a campus is being refreshed, some teams also coordinate facility prep or lobby reconfigurations with outside providers such as charitouch to ensure entrances and gathering spaces are optimized for visibility, safety, and flow.
Custom Configuration. The platform is then branded with logos, colors, and campaign artwork, and configured with fund options, suggested amounts, and recurring schedules. Organizations can add seasonal layouts for special offerings and choose on-screen storytelling elements like short video loops or impact counters. Multilingual prompts, accessibility-friendly contrasts, and optional donor notes make the experience inclusive. Every setting is saved as a reusable profile so future events can be launched in minutes.
Professional Installation. Certified technicians deliver and set up each donation terminal at high-visibility locations—entrances, lobby hubs, coffee stations, or event tables—using power and connectivity assessments to ensure reliability. Cable management, security mounts, and kiosk signage complete the presentation. Teams receive best-practice guidance: angle screens toward traffic, pair kiosks with simple signage explaining tap-to-give, and place an impact display within sight. The goal is to make generosity unmistakably easy.
Training & Support. Staff receive hands-on training to manage campaigns, view reports, and handle common donor questions. A 24/7 support team monitors uptime and pushes updates for payment standards and security compliance. Leaders access dashboards that summarize gifts by fund and location, with exports to finance systems and CRMs for accurate receipting and follow-up. Over time, the data reveals patterns—peak giving moments, popular suggested amounts, and effective messaging—so campaigns can be refined for even stronger results. With a tight feedback loop and always-on support, the system runs smoothly week after week, empowering churches, synagogues, and nonprofits to focus on what matters most: serving people.
From the first conversation to the first tap, the journey is built for speed, clarity, and measurable impact. As more donors embrace contactless giving in daily life, placing beautiful, reliable donation kiosks where they gather—and extending the same experience through ChariHome—turns moments of inspiration into immediate support for the mission.
