Summary: This guide explains how to generate a unique QR code linked directly to your Tithely Giving Form. Using a QR code allows donors to scan and give instantly from their mobile devices, making it perfect for printed bulletins, screens, and newsletters.
Before You Begin
Permissions: You must have access to the Giving dashboard (Account Owner, Admin, or Limited Access).
Longevity: Tithely QR codes do not expire. They remain active as long as your giving form is active.
Customization: The QR code generated is a standard black-and-white format. If you need branded colors or logos inside the code, you will need to download the URL and use a third-party design tool.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Log in to your Tithely account.
Navigate to the Giving section in the left-hand menu and select Giving Form.
Click the View QR Code button located next to your Giving Form URL.
Choose your save method from the pop-up window:
Download: Saves the image as a .PNG file to your computer (best for printing).
Copy: Copies the image to your clipboard so you can paste it directly into a document or email.
Troubleshooting & FAQs
Can I customize the QR code design? Currently, the QR code design is standard and cannot be changed inside Tithely. However, you can use the Giving Form URL with third-party QR code generators if you require specific branding or colors.
Where should I display this QR code? Common places include printed church bulletins, lobby posters, seatback cards, and projection screens before or after service.
How can I test if my QR code is working? Open the camera app on your smartphone and point it at the screen or printed code. It should immediately prompt you to open your specific Tithely Giving page.
