We are excited to announce a change in our giving system, as we will now use Planning Center Giving instead of ACS Technologies. We believe this new system will bring many benefits and advantages that will make giving easier, more secure, and more efficient for all of our members.
Why are we changing giving systems?
I currently have a recurring donation; do I have to change it?
What if I give using cash or a check?
Will I be able to review my past giving?
I use Planning Center for my small group and/or my ministry scheduling. Can I give through the same programs?
I entered my email address into Planning Center but never received a code. Where is it?
We understand that change can be challenging, but we are confident that this transition will be smooth and seamless and that the benefits will be well worth it. We are excited to move forward with this new system and look forward to seeing its positive impact on our church and community.
Thank you for your continued support and generosity.
Blessings,
Pastor Victor Massey & the Cooper City Church of God Team
Why are we changing giving systems?
- Savings: Switching to PCO allows us to use more of your giving to fulfill the church’s mission. Cooper City Church of God will save money using PCO because of a lower monthly fee and, most significantly, through lower transaction fees for every donation. You will also have the option to cover the transaction fee for your donation.
- Security: PCO Giving uses Stripe to process all transactions. Millions of companies of all sizes—from startups to Fortune 500s—use Stripe’s software. It is a PCI Service Provider Level 1, the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry.
- Simplicity: You’ll see, as you begin using PCO, Giving is MADE SIMPLE. Whether it’s an online donation, text-to-give, or Samsung, Google, or Apple Pay, you can seamlessly donate to our church using PCO.
- Visit http://cccofgod.churchcenter.com

- Enter the code sent to your email address or text phone number
- Welcome to Planning Center Online!
I currently have a recurring donation; do I have to change it?
- Yes. Your current recurring donation will end on Sunday, June 25. PCO will begin accepting donations on Monday, June 26. From there, it’s easy to set up a recurring donation from your mobile device or computer by visiting https://cccofgod.churchcenter.com/giving/profile/recurring-donations.
What if I give using cash or a check?
- Cash and check donations will not change. However, if you want to review your giving record, you can log on to PCO Giving.
Will I be able to review my past giving?
- Yes. Our Generosity Team is working hard to transfer 7-years of giving history into the PCO. If you notice a discrepancy in your giving record, please contact giving@cccofgod.org.
I use Planning Center for my small group and/or my ministry scheduling. Can I give through the same programs?
- Planning Center allows us to use the same login credentials across all the planning center products, from Groups to Services to Giving. However, you can only give by visiting the https://www.cccofgod.org/give or Cooper City Church of God app.
I entered my email address into Planning Center but never received a code. Where is it?
- Your code may end up in your spam folder. You can avoid this by adding no-reply=churchcenter.com@mg.churchcenter.comaddress to your address book or by using your phone number to login. If you still have trouble, contact the office at giving@cccofgod.org.
We understand that change can be challenging, but we are confident that this transition will be smooth and seamless and that the benefits will be well worth it. We are excited to move forward with this new system and look forward to seeing its positive impact on our church and community.
Thank you for your continued support and generosity.
