Giving
Honest giving economics.
Your rate falls as your church grows. We win when you grow — not by holding you down.
Donors cover fees with one tap.
Most donors choose to cover fees. Most churches receive close to 100% of every gift.

Estimates only. Payment-processor fees are pass-through and not included; donors can cover fees at checkout.
No hidden markup. Anywhere.
Payment-processor fees are pass-through — you pay exactly what the processor charges, nothing more. ZALA's take-rate is the percentage shown on the ladder above, stated plainly: 2% on Free, 1.5% on Core, 1.25% on Growth, 1% on Pro, and 0.6% on Scale.
Funds flow through Stripe, our payment processor. ZALA never holds church money.
