How AGAPAY Works
How Orthodox Online Giving Works
Giving should feel like giving.
Support your parish, monastery, or mission in a few simple steps — with offerings, intentions, and commemorations shaped around Orthodox life. Frictionless giving should never mean thoughtless giving.
Four simple steps
From first visit to first offering.
No app to download. No setup fees. Just your parish, your gift, and the life of the Church.
Launch path
A premium giving flow without software-team complexity.
From first visit to first offering, AGAPAY keeps the path calm and legible for parishioners while preserving the details that matter to parish life.

Every canonical jurisdiction.
Search by name, city, jurisdiction, or location. ROCOR, OCA, Antiochian, GOA, ACROD — every canonically recognized Orthodox community in America. If they are on AGAPAY, you will find them.

Choose your offering
Give the way the Church gives.
Each offering is shaped around how Orthodox Christians actually give — not a generic payment form pretending to understand stewardship. Intentionality matters.

Your gift arrives
Love how you give.
An offering is never a transaction. It is an act of worship. Your gift supports real people and real mission.
✓
Your parish is notified instantly — the gift arrives directly in their account.
✓
No platform holds your money. It goes straight to the Church, the moment you give it.
✓
Your commemorations are queued for the priest — the living and the departed, remembered at the proskomedia.
✓
Your giving record follows you. Year-end statements, all in one place.
After the offering
Belong to parish life through Koinonia.
Koinonia (κοινωνία) means fellowship, communion, and shared participation. Once your parish enables it, My AGAPAY becomes a doorway into the community—not another public social network. Your parish chooses what to share, and verified households participate within the life of their own church.
Stay connected
See parish announcements, feast-day reminders, service updates, clergy reflections, and trusted Orthodox news in one calm, parish-centered feed.
Participate in ministry
Discover parish groups, respond when a ministry needs help, follow community calendars, and take the next step from hearing about parish life to serving in it.
Learn and listen together
Hear parish homilies and teaching, watch shared video, follow Orthodox podcasts, build an Up Next queue, and return exactly where you stopped.
Keep fellowship rooted in the Church
Koinonia gathers communication, formation, service, and shared attention beneath your parish—not algorithms, advertising, or an endless global feed.
Your path: create My AGAPAY → connect with your parish and household → open Koinonia → read, listen, respond, and serve.
