Electronic Funds Transfers (EFTs)
Make Giving Easier with EFTs
Electronic Funds Transfers (EFTs), also known as e-checks, provide a seamless way to support the mission of Winds International. By setting up an e-check, you can easily manage your donations—adjusting the amount, changing the frequency, and keeping track of your giving history. This flexibility ensures that your generosity continues to empower churches and ministries in the digital era.
Is It Safe? Absolutely! 🔒
When you donate via an e-check, your payment is securely processed, and Winds International never sees your full bank account details—only the last four digits. Plus, you’ll receive an email confirmation each time a donation is processed, giving you full transparency over your giving.
Why Choose E-Checks Over Cards?
✅ No Extra Fees – Unlike credit or debit cards, which involve processing fees, EFTs allow 100% of your donation to go directly toward the mission.
✅ Faster Processing – EFTs are processed instantly, ensuring quick support for impactful projects.
✅ More Control – Manage your donations easily through your account, adjusting them as needed without any delays.
