Roman Catholic AnswerThe Church never sold anything to replace penance. There were some abuses connected with indulgences issued for donations to help repair St. Peter's in Rome, in the sixteenth century, and the indulgences replaced penance, but the Church has never offered them for sale, and due to the abuses, indulgences are now never offered for alms.

What is necessary for penance to be considered valid in the Catholic church?

Roman Catholic AnswerIf you are talking about the sacrament of Penance, then it is necessary to have a baptised Catholic who is of age confessing ALL of his unforgiven mortal sins to a validly consecrated priest or Bishop, to be truly sorry for his sins, and to have a firm intention of not committing them again. The priest must then absolve the penitent and impose a penance on him, which must be fulfilled.
