Payments via the Portal

Set Up NMI in the Portal

To comply with PCI standards, we no longer pass credit card details through the Portal. If you use NMI to process payments, you will need to generate a security key in your payment gateway control panel and add it to your configuration settings in MinistryPlatform.

Note: You must contact the OnlineGiving Support team at support@onlinegiving.org to get your NMI Transaction Key. In fact, they are happy to help you through this process, so don't hesitate to contact them for assistance.
Important: The Portal supports one NMI account. If you collect both donations and payments, note that these will be processed the same way.
In Your Payment Gateway Control Panel
  1. Log in to your payment gateway control panel. This is unique to your church and was provided by your payment processor.
  2. In the left menu, expand Options then select Settings.
