I don’t own a CC either.
Our church and our daughters dance studio and for some reason our local municipalities utilities are the only places we write checks anymore...
I was being sarcastic about the pew swipers..do they actually have those?
Well, a pastor of a Baptist church that I visited for a few weeks while in Maryland on business mentioned in one sermon that he kept on getting advertisements for, if not a pew swiper, then a mobile one. And of course he held the idea in contempt because no matter how much extra it would make it easy to raise (and it might even be for innocent reasons — sometimes people just forget to bring an offering) he believes the method is wrong. If it took debit cards only that might be another story, but there could be a lot of confusion with people trying to give it credit cards anyhow.
