CCN’s Administrative Fee Policy

In an effort to keep administrative costs to donors as low as possible, CCN charges very low administrative fees for handling donated funds. Administrative fees are used to pay for CCN’s website, web-based accounting service, payroll services, online giving fees, and other minor overhead costs. The only personnel cost paid for out of administrative fees is a small monthly stipend paid to the CCN Executive Director. The Executive Director of CCN raises the majority of his own financial support.

CCN’s administrative fee policy is as follows:

  • All donations made through CCN’s online giving platform are subject to a 5% admin fee on the gross amount given. (CCN’s online giving fees charged to CCN by CCN’s third-party electronic payment service provider, which are paid by CCN, range from 2-3% of the gross amount given.)

  • All other donations (check, cash, or other) which are restricted for personnel costs (income or ministry expense reimbursements) of CCN ministers are subject to a 5% admin fee on the gross amount given.

  • All other donations (check, cash, or other) which are restricted for non-personnel ministry expenses (e.g. collaborative ministry projects) are subject to a 2% admin fee on the gross amount given.
