Flat fees/Assessments were established for missionaries who are funded by a single donor; , typically the sending church. This is done with the acknowledgement that Reliant's costs are lowered by having just one donor. It is not uncommon that these missionary types will not submit reimbursements and only one support payment per month to process are examples of why the costs are so much lower. Use of the Flat Fee/Assessment serves as a cap on the admin fee/assessment. In In the Flat flat fee case, the administrative fee stays the same no matter how high any month's giving goes. This This does allow the convenience for the church/donor to send support funds on a quarterly, bi-monthly or semi-annual basis rather than monthly without a negative impact due to sliding fee/assessment scales.
