Ways to Pay

• Check (preferred): Mailing a check is the best way to ensure your full payment goes toward its intended purpose with no processing fees.
• ACH Transfer: Please contact accounting@imam-us.org to arrange a direct bank transfer.
• Credit Card: Online payments are accepted for your convenience. Card processing fees are covered by I.M.A.M.’s operational funds so that 100% of your khums reaches its intended purpose. To help offset that cost, we kindly ask that you add 3.5% to your payment.
• Stock: For questions about donating stock, contact accounting@imam-us.org
