Offering envelopes, also known as tithing envelopes, are paper envelopes used to collect donations or tithes from church members or even non-profit organization donors. Offering envelopes provide many benefitssuch as convenience, privacy, or serving as a donation reminder. More importantly, they’re a clear staple in supporting finances.

They can be handy at first, but ultimately, you'll want to transcribe donation amounts to a master document anyway. In general, you'll want to keep physical and digital copies of all important church financial records.
