Frequently Asked Questions
Thank You for Considering a Partnership with I Said Yes
We understand that choosing a ministry partner is an important decision. Below are answers to some of the questions we're most often asked. If you don't find the answer you're looking for, we're always happy to help. Simply reach out, and we'll be honored to serve you.
Do we need to purchase inventory upfront?
No.
There is no upfront investment required to become an I Said Yes Church Partner.
We provide the apparel inventory for your church, allowing you to offer premium Christian apparel without the financial burden of purchasing stock in advance. Our goal is to remove the risk so your church can focus on sharing God's message—not managing inventory.
Who handles shipping?
We do.
Every order is professionally printed, folded, tagged, barcoded, and shipped directly to your church. We carefully package every garment so it arrives ready for display in your bookstore, resource center, welcome center, coffee shop, or wherever your church chooses to offer apparel.
How are returns handled?
Returns are simple.
In-Church Purchases
If a garment is purchased directly from your church, your church will handle the return or exchange according to your preferred ministry policy.
Online Purchases
Orders placed through the I Said Yes website are handled entirely by us. We process customer service, exchanges, and returns so your church doesn't have to.
Can our church create its own designs?
Absolutely!
In fact, we encourage it.
Every church has its own mission, vision, and message. We'd love to help bring your ideas to life through professionally printed apparel that reflects your ministry.
Whether it's:
- Church events
- Youth ministry
- Men's ministry
- Women's ministry
- Conferences
- Vacation Bible School
- Missions
- Outreach events
- Fundraisers
Our prayer is to help your church spread God's Word through designs that inspire faith and begin meaningful conversations.
Can we use our church logo?
Yes.
Your custom church apparel will proudly feature your church's logo and branding.
Official I Said Yes designs will continue to feature the I Said Yes logo, while custom ministry designs remain unique to your church.
Our goal is to support and strengthen your ministry—not replace your identity.
How often are partnership payments made?
Partnership proceeds are distributed monthly.
Simply let us know what was sold through your church, and we'll calculate your partnership proceeds according to our Kingdom Partnership Promise.
In addition, any purchases made through your church's unique online code are automatically tracked.
All qualifying online partnership proceeds are distributed on or around the 5th of each month.
How are reports and financial documents delivered?
Transparency is one of our core values.
Monthly partnership reports, bookkeeping summaries, payment records, and any applicable tax documentation are securely delivered through encrypted email links to help protect your church's information.
Our goal is to make record-keeping simple, organized, and easy to access whenever you need it.
Can we approve artwork before it's printed?
Absolutely.
Nothing goes to print until your church has approved the final artwork.
We believe the best ministry happens when we work together. Your input matters, and we want every design to accurately represent your church's vision while honoring Jesus Christ.
Can our members order online?
Yes!
Every partner church receives a unique online discount code to share with its congregation.
Members can conveniently order directly from the I Said Yes website while enjoying exclusive discounts and occasional special gifts available only through your church.
Even better, qualifying online purchases made using your church's code continue to support your ministry through the Kingdom Partnership Program.
It's another simple way to extend your church's reach while generating additional ministry support beyond Sunday mornings.
What if our church wants to hold a fundraiser?
We would love to help.
Whether you're raising funds for:
- Missions
- Youth camps
- Building projects
- Community outreach
- Disaster relief
- Special events
- Ministry expansion
- Local charities
We'll work alongside your church to create a fundraising program tailored specifically to your goals.
Simply contact us with the details of your event, and together we'll develop a plan that honors God while supporting your ministry.
Why Does I Said Yes Give So Much Back to Churches?
It's a question we're honored to answer.
Quite simply, we believe everything we have belongs to God. He has entrusted us with the opportunity to use our talents, resources, and experience to serve His Kingdom, and we believe the local church is His chosen instrument for sharing the Gospel and making disciples.
Our desire has never been to build the largest apparel company. Our desire has always been to faithfully steward what God has placed in our hands and use it to strengthen churches, encourage believers, and help more people come to know Jesus Christ.
We believe God blesses His people so they can be a blessing to others. That's why we've chosen a partnership model that gives generously back to the local church. When your ministry grows, more lives can be impacted. More missionaries can be sent. More families can be served. More children can hear the Gospel. More communities can experience the love of Christ.
Every shirt sold is more than apparel.
It's another opportunity to start a conversation.
Another opportunity to share God's Word.
Another opportunity to support the work He is doing through your church.
That is why we call it a Kingdom Partnership.
Because when we work together, we are doing far more than selling shirts—we are helping advance the Kingdom of God, one conversation, one testimony, and one life at a time.
What if We Have Additional Questions?
We're here to serve you.
Whether your question is about apparel, artwork, payments, fundraising, or simply learning more about the partnership, we'd be honored to speak with you.
We believe great ministry partnerships begin with open communication, complete transparency, and a shared desire to glorify Jesus Christ.
Please don't hesitate to reach out.
We're grateful for the opportunity to serve your church.
