Giving

Give with a faithful heart

Tithes, offerings, and building campaigns, one-time or recurring, handled with the care your gift deserves.

Free for members. Churches pay no subscription; a small platform fee on each gift (3% by default), plus standard card processing, keeps Emnet running.

Payments are processed by Stripe, the same infrastructure trusted by millions of businesses. Local payment options for Ethiopia are on our roadmap.

Directly to your church

Every gift settles in your church’s own account. Emnet never holds your church’s money.

Give your way

One-time, weekly, or monthly. Choose the fund your church has opened (building, youth, mercy) and keep a pledge you can follow through the year.

See the fruit of giving

Campaigns share progress and updates you can follow, comment on, and answer with an Amen.

Receipts, ready for tax season

A receipt for every gift, your full giving history, and IRS-ready annual statements for U.S. congregations.

እምነት

“Emnet” is the Amharic word for faith.

Our name is our purpose: to be a bridge for the faith, so that distance never weakens what generations have kept.

Rooted in an ancient faith, built for its future

The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church is one of the oldest Christian traditions in the world. “Tewahedo” (ተዋሕዶ) is Ge’ez for “being made one.” Today its faithful, more than fifty million strong, gather in parishes from Addis Ababa to Washington, London, and Sydney.

Emnet Bridge was built with and for this global community, and for every congregation that wants to stay close to its people. Denomination, language, calendar, and currency are choices, not assumptions.

Questions, answered

Is Emnet free?

Yes. The app is free for members. Churches pay no subscription or setup fee; a small platform fee on each gift (3% by default), plus standard card processing, sustains the platform.

Where does my gift actually go?

Directly to your church. Each church onboards to its own Stripe merchant account, and your gift settles there. Emnet never holds your church’s money.

Which languages does Emnet speak?

English, Amharic (አማርኛ), Tigrinya (ትግርኛ), and Afaan Oromoo. Dates can follow the Ethiopian calendar, with Ge’ez numerals.

Is Emnet only for Ethiopian Orthodox churches?

Emnet is built with Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo congregations first, and it serves any congregation. Denomination is a setting, not a limitation.

How does my church join?

Write to us at support@emnetbridge.com. The Emnet team verifies and creates each church account, then walks your parish office through the portal and payment onboarding.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Data is encrypted in transit, every church’s records are isolated with row-level security, and you can export your data or delete your account from inside the app at any time.

When do the apps launch?

The iOS and Android apps are in final preparation. The download links on this page go live the moment the stores approve them.
