We break down why "Carrier Giving" is obsolete and how CONNECT SMSgiving replaces it. The hosts discuss the "Sole Owner" model (you own the data, not the carrier, e.g. AT&T, Verizon, etc.), the speed of real-time deposits, and the incredibly short donation form that skips address verification because the phone number is already verified. We also highlight the full suite of payment options—from Apple Pay, Google Pay, Amazon Pay, PayPal to Venmo & traditional credit cards—and how the unified SKU system ensures every text donation triggers your Salesforce automation perfectly.
