If you are only using the One Church Giving platform to handle credit card data and you will not be handling any payment-card data yourself, then the only requirement is to complete the SAQ-A questionnaire yearly. These questions are mainly yes/no questions and help to validate that your organization is not storing cards or any sensitive data. This questionnaire should only takes a few minutes to complete.
Failure to complete the questionnaire may result in fines.
Once enrolled in our giving platform, you will be given access to a portal which we make available to all customers to help maintain compliance at no additional cost (assuming SAQ-A).
