Bridge App Icons

Add your own Custom Buttons and Shared Folders to the Home screen, giving instant access to files and documents that are important to your congregation (policies, agendas, minutes, etc.)

Security

The Bridge App fully complies with PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements. All information is encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest. Credit card transactions made through the Give function use a unique token from your card provider. The Bridge App does not see or store any credit card information.

Your online Directory is only accessible to verified members of your congregation. The local church can choose to post any particular Event, Prayer or Announcement as ‘public’ or ‘verified users only’.  

Only those to whom your church assigns the role of ‘Treasurer’ can access donation information.

Additional details about security for The Bridge App can be found in The Bridge App booklet.
