Gyve is not just another payment processing app. We are a generosity system built on one simple concept; everyone in your organization is at a different place in their generosity journey and we want to help you encourage each person to take their next steps in giving. We are only mobile giving app that combines the power of rounding up your transactions AND providing one-time donations, recurring donations, text-to-give donations, kiosk donations and online donation services. Gyve uses trusted payment gateways to securely submit your donation quickly and easily, to the charity of your choice. Is Gyve Secure? YES! Gyve is fully PCI compliant LEVEL 1, which are the standards set by Visa, MasterCard, Amex and Diners. We never hold any of your account information on our servers, it is securely transferred to our trusted payment processors. Gyve helps you develop generosity in your organization in three unique ways: GYVE “ROUND-UP” Donors have the option to round up their purchases to the nearest dollar. Gyve will automatically donate the change from that transaction to your organization. Our “round-up” giving is an easy way to promote generosity for specific charities, missions or special projects. CUSTOMIZED REPORTING You get a detailed look at giving trends and demographics in whatever format you want to see them. This allows you to better understand how users are giving and where you can help them in their generosity journey. AUTOMATED MESSAGING You can send a “thank you” message automatically. A thank you message can go to those who give for the first time, hit a specific giving goal or whenever it makes sense. With our portal, you can share generosity moments with everyone involved in giving or narrow it down to a specific type of giver. By capturing the testimony of a recipient on video, you can easily share the story of who was blessed through your organization's generosity automatically. If you do not see your charity, tell them to contact Gyve at info@gyve.io. ## Key features - Transaction round-up donations - One-time and recurring donations - Text-to-give functionality - Customized reporting on giving trends - Automated donor thank-you messages - Secure PCI compliant payment processing ## Recent user reviews (10 of 21) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/gyve/id1128198830/reviews.md ### 2/5 — Current version is buggy *2025-03-18, version 3.0.12* When are you going to fix this buggy version of the app. It used to work great but now not so much. ### 1/5 — Hijacked my account! *2021-04-06, version 2.6.1* I’ve made multiple attempts to cancel my account when my church decided to go with a different online giving app. THIS APP WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO CANCEL MY ACCOUNT! I literally sign in with my username and password, then to supposedly delete my account I’m just supposed to go to my profile, enter my password to delete it, and that should be it. WRONG! The same password I use to log in is “not found” when I try to delete the account. I go into FAQ and it recommends to try changing my password. Automated customer service sends me an email with a link to reset my password. I click on the link and I follow the instructions perfectly to change my password (one capital letter, one lower case letter, one special character, at least 8 characters long) and...nothing. Simply won’t let me proceed. The page just keeps resetting itself asking for the new password which I kept putting in. Tried like 8 different passwords and it wouldn’t let me continue. I email customer support. They send me ANOTHER link to reset my password. Except this time the link provided just takes me to a page to donate more money. Nothing else. I can’t continue. Multiple emails have been sent to customer support and they just keep sending me links to reset my password. I figured maybe I’d just go ahead and delete my credit card information to make sure they don’t keep taking payments out of my card...NOPE. Can’t find anywhere on here to delete or change my credit card information. I bet if my card expired, you’d let me know how to change it! This app was fine while I used it but there is NO REASON to make it impossible to delete your account. I don’t trust this app. Something is very shady about all of this. ### 1/5 — Gyve-not *2020-10-04, version 2.6.1* Sadly, it only works for some. Tried to sign up to give but the same email I send and receive from every day pops up the message that it’s invalid. Frustrating when you’re trying to do something good. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t load dead app *2020-05-10, version 2.5.4* Bad doesn’t work anymore dead app ### 1/5 — App not needed *2020-03-22, version 2.5.4* Since you cannot give IN the app, what’s the purpose of the app? Seems a waste. Tap “Give” and you’re redirected to the website. It’s 2020. Have you not figured out how to process transactions IN your app? ### 5/5 — Premier Giving App *2020-02-14, version 2.5.4* Easy to use. Quick sign up. More features than the competition and the backend support these guys provide is excellent. Encourages people to give for the first time and custom messaging from the portal helps charities target message to their donors. ### 5/5 — I love to Gyve! *2020-01-12, version 2.5.2* They makes it easy to donate money. I love that you can set up your donations to be one-time, recurring weekly or monthly. It’s even SUPER easy to change your donating options. And the round up option?!?! Whoa! I haven’t tried it, but it sounds like an awesome way to get rid of my change! Great work Gyve. ### 5/5 — I love this new way of giving! *2020-01-11, version 2.5.2* Love this Gyve App, makes my weekly offering so much easier. I added the rounding up feature so my spare change can help others through many local ministries in my church. ### 5/5 — Impactful and user friendly *2020-01-10, version 2.5.2* So pleased our church opted for the Gyve app. Not only is it simple to sign up, it has a “round up” option which allows your spare change to benefit your community. Our church does a great job of letting us know how our round up funds have been used. I highly recommend this!!!!! ### 5/5 — Generosity made easy *2020-01-10, version 2.5.2* My family tithes regularly and this app makes it so easy to stay accountable. I love the round up feature too...makes balancing my checking account easier. ## Frequently asked questions about Gyve ### Is Gyve secure for processing donations?
