Integrated eGiving in PDS with Abundant.
Now your parishioners can give anytime. Simply and securely.

Take your stewardship to the next level with PDS' new giving solution called Abundant. PDS V9 includes Abundant, so you can now offer your parish integrated online, text and mobile giving. These multiple giving options can help overcome the natural variability that occurs with traditional parish giving. With Abundant integrated with PDS, parishioner giving can be more consistent throughout the year and manageable by the parish.

Online Giving

Setting up online giving is quick and easy. You can customize your giving form to match your parish website theme, and then embed the form on your website. With Abundant, you can accept debit cards, credit cards, and ACH, and donors can save their payment method for future gifts. Administrators can quickly add activities, set up multiple deposit accounts, and manage donor gifts. Reconciling and managing contributions is easy because your giving solution is integrated in PDS, which saves time and reduces error associated with manual data entry.

Mobile Giving

Giving through a mobile app is easy and convenient for your parishioners as well as visitors. They will be able to give and manage their gifts from any mobile device, which fits right into today’s fast-paced world. The mobile app includes the same benefits as online giving including setting up a one-time or recurring gift, choosing a fund, and adding memos.
