GIVING

Yes, you can set up recurring donations in Realm.  

Realm supports scheduled gifts that repeat weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly, or on a custom schedule. You can set them up yourself as a donor, or an administrator can manage them for you. 

Yes — you will receive a contribution statement when you give through Realm.  

Realm automatically provides donors with access to their own giving statements, and Victory will email or print official contribution statements for tax purposes.

How to update your bank account in Realm (as a donor)

1. Log into your Realm account  

Use your church’s Realm login page.

2. Go to “Giving”  

This is where all your contributions and scheduled gifts live.

3. Click “Manage Payment Methods”  

You’ll see your saved cards and bank accounts.

4. Add your new bank account  

Realm will prompt you to enter:

Routing number

Account number

Name on account

Account type (checking/savings)

5. Set the new bank account as your default  

This ensures future gifts use the new account.

6. Update any recurring gifts  

Even after adding a new bank account, you must edit each recurring gift to switch it to the new payment method.

Yes — online giving through Realm is secure, and ACS Technologies (Realm’s developer) documents several layers of protection that make it one of the most secure church‑giving platforms available.

The most important fact:  

Realm processes every online donation using PCI Level‑1 compliant systems, which is the highest security standard for handling financial transactions.
