Frequently Asked Questions
Contact giving@bacc.cc and we will confirm that we have received your digital donation.
The PayPal Giving Fund (PPGF) is a service provided by PayPal for charities to receive donations. Bay Area Christian Church is a registered 501(c)(3) public charity with the PayPal Giving Fund. The benefits of the PayPal Giving Fund are no transaction fees and a receipt is given when a donation is made. You will need a PayPal account to use this service. Also, please check the box “Share my contact info with this charity” when you give through PPGF so we can make sure to apply your funds to the proper ministry location.
You can also give using your credit card on our website at bacc.cc/give. It works like any other typical credit card transaction. Make sure you fill out all the required fields and check the Captcha – “I’m not a robot” box. Once your credit card donation is processed, you will receive a receipt.
We have no preference between the PayPal Giving Fund and credit card donation. However, if you would like to avoid credit card transaction fees, you can use the PayPal Giving Fund.

Often it is because not all the asterisk * information fields were filled out or the Captcha “I’m not a robot” box was not checked. If your credit card transaction was successfully processed, you will receive a donation receipt. If all of these steps were followed and you are still not seeing it on your statement, please contact giving@bacc.cc and we will help you.
