NEW METHOD FOR DONATIONS:
Credit/debit card donations:
How does it work? A solid GREEN light on the device means it is
connected and
ready to receive a tap. Simply tap the device with your chip
enabled card or
mobile wallet and the donation will be captured.
If there are two beeps from the device this means the card
was not successfully read and could be due to either a card type
not accepted, or the card was tapped too quickly, please try
again.
On your card statement Holy Redeemer Parish will be listed the
vendor of the
transaction.
Is your information safe? The only information captured for
the donation will be the last four digits of the card used.
Those wishing to utilize the TipTap donation option and
receive an annual charitable donation slip please contact the
Parish Office at 709-634-5161 or via email at info.hrp@nl.rogers.com
and provide the last 4 digits of the card used.
