Why OCM
A Partnership, Not a Vendor Relationship
When your parish adopts OCM, you're not just buying software — you're joining a mission. Starting at $10/month, one flat fee replaces a patchwork of platforms, your donations flow 100% to your parish, and our incentives are permanently aligned with yours.
Your Savings

On integrated giving: Parishes that add integrated digital giving and rewards programs typically see increased overall giving as parishioners gain more convenient ways to contribute. Savings estimates above reflect software and processing fee consolidation only and do not include potential revenue increases from digital giving platform, offering parishioners the ability to cover payment processing fees, increases in bank interest, etc.
