Simple and transparent — every fee itemized up front.
Transparent plans by church size ($19 to $129/mo), every fee itemized — Micro $19/mo (up to 50 members), Starter $39/mo (up to 150), Growth $69/mo (up to 500), Pro $129/mo (unlimited). Plus a transparent 1.5% platform fee on donations — $0 to your church when donors cover fees (checked by default) — and standard Stripe processing (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction). No setup fees, no contracts, cancel anytime.
