Overview
About Kindrid
Kindrid is a cloud-based donation solution for churches. It helps users accept and manage giving through integration with church websites, social media platforms and campaigns. Key features include location tracking and multiple designation creation to collect givings.
Kindrid allows members to send donations via text message by using the unique giving number provided to each church. Members can also make contributions through web links that can be accessed across multiple devices. The solution lets churches track donations across various locations at one place.
Kindrid provides bank-level encryption to ensure financial data security for givers. Users can also see an overview of donations through graphs and charts. The solution provides customized videos and slides that can be used by churches for promotional purpose.
Services are offered on a subscription basis and a separate fee is also charged on each transaction.

We love Kindrid
We are super satisfied with the whole process from start to finish
- Easy to use, user Friendly, let’s people who give see what they have given
- Admins need to be notified via email or alert when giving has occurred

A Needed Innovation
Verified reviewer
- Why did it take so long for mobile giving to become a thing
- Kindrid is an innovation that finally represents the true generational shift in finance management and giving
- Millennials just don't carry cash
- (Don't even get stated on checks
- What are those
- ) But it doesn't mean they don't want to give
- This text-to-give platform makes it easy for people to give to institutions such as churches, non-profits, and any other kind of benefit fundraiser situation on the go from their phone
- It's the needed innovation in a modern landscape and exactly the kind of problem technology should be solving for our everyday lives
- Of course we wish everything were automatic, and that's not always the case
- There is a one-time setup for first givers that is unavoidable
- But the platform does its best to make it as painless as possible through a series of onboarding texts to get your account information and verifications
- Overall, it could be worse
- And once complete, you never have to do it again (thank goodness)
- Another possible con is some phone carriers don't allow you to text short codes--but this can be resolved since Kindrid provides a full-length phone number (you just have to get it)

Buyers Be Ware!
If I were reviewing this company based on the experience we had with them during the first 3 1/2 years of working with them, I would rate them at 4 Stars - not perfect - but typically able to resolve any problems within a reasonable time frame. If I were reviewing them based on our most recent experiences I would be lamenting the fact that a rating lower than zero stars doesn't exist.
- We selected Kindrid 3 1/2 years ago, specifically for it's text-to-give feature
- The service was simple, safe, and affordable, and worked well for us for 3 1/2 years, until it went south at the beginning of this month
- We've just come through our second weekend of not being able to offer a text-to-give option to our members due to a technical glitch on Kindrid's end
- We've reached out to rep at Kindrid and he has told us that the best solution he can offer is to give our members a new phone number to use for text-to-give
- I've told him this won't work because we already have a one year supply (40,000) of pre-printed giving envelopes on hand that contain the original instructions that Kindrid gave us for text-to-give, which include the same phone number that we've been using for the past 3 1/2 years
- The best suggestion rep could offer was to tell our members to not use out text-to-give option and instead to give directly through our giving portal
- Here we are entering the holiday season and I need to shop for another provider to meet our text-to-give needs

Kindrid is a joy to use. Support is very responsive and we have seen a 15% increase in giving.
Verified reviewer
- Kindrid has been a joy to use
- Customer support is very responsive and we saw a 15% increase in giving after the first year of use
- The integration with Church Community Builder was simple to setup and has worked much better than other giving app integrations we have experienced in the past
- The only con was getting people on-boarded to the system but Kindrid does offer graphic material as well as a video
- The only thing that would have made it better was if there video was a Premiere/After Effects file and was structured in such a way that our video team could have quickly manipulated it to be a better fit to our branding

Feature rich, easy to use, responsive and friendly/responsive customer support.
Verified reviewer
- It's easy to use, we had text donations up and running and tested in less than an hour
- The administrative screens are intuitive, system is very stable and responsive
- The customer support team is very friendly, patient and responsive to my questions or support needs
- The donor response to the system has been very favorable and widely accepted
- I highly recommend this software
- There are very few cons in my opinion, everything works well
- One con is that we aren't able to use Kindrid in other countries

Our church plant uses Kindrid for gifts from both partners and the new congregation.
Giving security and ease of use for people wanting to donate to our church.
- Simplicity with options
- I love that Kindrid makes it easy to give
- They also have great security for givers and have intelligent options - such as giving directly from your bank account to avoid credit and debit card fees
- Another "bonus" is that they communicate well with givers
- Recurring gifts always come with a "thank you for giving" email or text to encourage and thank the givers
- Finally, I would say that their customer service has been fantastic during the one or two times that we've needed their help
- I highly recommend this organization
- I haven't run into any significant issues and we've been with Kindrid for about a year and a half
- If I had to list something, I would probably say that their new rollout of give
- church has generated the need for some explanation to our people that the name change is part of a system-wide upgrade, not a change of companies

Kindrid has made receiving gifts so easy. It's been wonderful!
Verified reviewer
- As a non-profit we have been looking for a way to make it super easy for people to give
- We have used fellowship one as a main giving platform and it has worked for longtime givers that get it but for us as a non-profit we desire new givers to have a very simple process if they only one give a one time gift
- Kindrid has made that possible
- The thing we are really looking for is a platform that is more of an all in one software
- So what is a con about the platform isn't necessarily something you guys should should try to be but is an all in one platform for giving, donor management, event registration etc

Fantastic giving solution
Verified reviewer
- Ease of use and customer service is great
- We implemented and had a bunch of people jump on and it's only grown
- Not a lot not to like
- They've upgraded some of their limitations and probably need to add some more to compete with other digital solutions
- But for the price, not much to complain about

I really enjoy the relationship established with Kindrid
Give.church is streamlined on the front, nerdy in the back and friendly to work with.
- They offer a great value to houses of worship
- The user interface is very easy for a new user
- I personally wish it had an optional kiosk solution
