Generosity can take various forms. For some donors, the resources they want to give may not be sitting in a checking account. They may be held in stocks, investments, or digital assets. 

That is why we are excited to share that TouchPoint Giving church partners can now receive stock and cryptocurrency donations!

This update gives churches another way to help people give generously from the resources God has entrusted to them, while keeping the process simple for both the donor and the church. 

Why Stock & Crypto Giving Matters For Churches 

Churches have long received gifts through cash, checks, cards, ACH, and online giving. But many donors, especially those thinking about larger gifts or long-term stewardship, may want to give from assets rather than from cash. 

That matters for churches because generosity often grows when donors have clear, practical ways to give from the resources they already have. By offering stock and crypto giving through TouchPoint Giving, churches can make room for gifts that may have previously required a more manual, complicated, or disconnected process. 

Tricia Fourman shared the vision behind the update this way: “It’s much easier to fund ministry from people’s assets than from the balance in their checking account.” 

This capability helps churches support generosity that goes beyond a weekly or monthly giving rhythm. It also creates space for conversations around stewardship, future planning, and whole-life discipleship. 

What This Update Adds To TouchPoint Giving 

TouchPoint Giving church partners now have the ability to receive stock and cryptocurrency donations through Engiven

With this update, churches can offer donors a secure path for non-cash gifts while Engiven supports the stock and crypto donation process. Donors are guided through the giving experience, and the gift can be processed as a stock or cryptocurrency donation rather than a traditional cash, card, or ACH gift. 

For churches, this creates a more streamlined way to receive non-cash gifts without building a separate process from the ground up. 

A Simpler Way To Receive Generosity From Assets 

Stock and crypto giving can be especially helpful for donors who want to give from appreciated assets, investment holdings, or digital assets. These gifts may also carry tax considerations for the donor, depending on their situation.* 

The goal is simple: give donors a clear, modern, and ministry-minded way to give from the assets they already hold. 

*Because every donor’s financial picture is different, churches should encourage donors to speak with their tax advisor or financial advisor before making a stock or cryptocurrency donation. TouchPoint does not provide tax or financial advice. 

How Churches Can Get Started 

TouchPoint Giving Church Partners can enable stock and crypto donations by completing the TouchPoint Giving Options Registration Form. 

The setup process will help confirm your church’s preferences, including whether your church would like to receive stock donations, crypto donations, or both. Your church may also be asked to provide key information such as your EIN so the setup process can move forward smoothly. 

If your church has any questions about enabling stock and crypto giving for your church, you can contact Tricia Fourman, Giving Solutions Specialist.

If your church doesn’t currently utilize TouchPoint Giving and you have interest in receiving stock or cryptocurrency donations, please contact the TouchPoint Solutions Team

Helping Churches Make More Room For Generosity

For churches, this is more than a technical update. It is another opportunity to remove friction, support generosity, and help fund ministry through modern giving tools that meet donors where they are.
