integration with Vanco to download these donations into the Contributions module of IconCMO
eliminating duplicate entry for financial secretaries. In addition to the integration, Vanco gives
their clients access to reports, scanned checks, and a history of donations through their web
portal. More than 10,000 nonprofit organizations are currently using Vanco for their electronic
donation solutions.
Electronic and Check Scanned Donations by Paperless
Transactions
Churches always appreciate donations. But processing checks can be a painstaking job that costs
money and a lot of time. Plus, it’s easy to make mistakes while processing checks. We can help.
Icon Systems Inc. has partnered with Paperless Transaction Corporation to provide churches with a
check scanning solution commonly called Remote Data Capture (RDC). In addition to check
scanning, Paperless Transactions also incorporates mobile, email, and online donations into their
solution. So now churches can have one place to process any type of transaction. For example,
churches can send a mass email where people can donate to a one-time fundraiser. All of these
payment methods are imported into IconCMO from Paperless Transaction’s aggregate system.
Document Solution Provider by Dynamic Systems

Systems to provide IconCMO clients professionally designed and 100% compatible checks and
forms. To enhance your web experience, we have built a website specifically for IconCMO users.

Media Fusion PodCasting by UpperRoom Technologies
One problem faced by many educational and non-profit organizations (such as churches and
schools) that want to start podcasting is that they lack the technical expertise to manage their
podcasts effectively. Often times they do not have the budget for contracting a custom solution
either. Media Fusion’s one click podcast feature helps organizations easily overcome this
limitation. Simply upload an mp3 file to Media Fusion, select “add this lesson to podcast” and give
the lesson a category and description. It’s as easy as that! Your podcast was just updated! Media
Fusion hosts the audio content and generates the code automatically!
Voice Boradcasting and Text Messaging by Call-Em-All
Religious organizations frequently need to get out important or critical messages to their staff,
small groups or the entire congregation. Using a traditional calling tree or email can be both slow
and tedious when time is critical and details are important. Reach your congregation's phones via
