A contributor is having trouble accessing their online giving account. How can I help them?

First, ensure that the email address is correct in the Online Account. Next, have the member reset their password.

When a contributor is having trouble logging into their Online Account, it is often due to them using an incorrect email address or password.

The email address that is being used for the Online Account is often different than the one being used in the Member Profile for email communications from the church.  To see and verify with the contributor, the email being used, go to the person's profile page, then click the Online Account icon.  Note:  If they don't have that icon, click on More Info..., Contributions, Online Account.
