Live services, sermons, giving, private prayer requests, events and a Bible, under your church's name and colors on every phone. We set it up for you in about a week.
Watch the 3-minute tourA real church's app, running live. Tap around.

Members get one place for everything. Pastors get simple tools that work from a phone.
Tap each step to see what the member sees and what the pastor does. The whole way through, the request stays between them.
Every church's information is walled off from every other church, enforced in the database itself. Requests can delete themselves after 90 days, six months or a year.
Each member picks their language once. The app, your events and your announcements follow them. Staff can fill in translations with one tap, then check them.
Need another language? Ask us on the demo.
Your app does the reaching for you, on every plan.
Members share today's verse as a picture in your church's colours, with your church's name and app address on it. Every WhatsApp status, Instagram story or Facebook post sends friends and family back to your church, reach that would otherwise cost you an ad budget.
Push notifications come with every plan. "We're live", a prayer meeting, a change of venue: it lands on members' phones with no per-message charges, so you can cut or replace what you spend on text-message services and boosted posts.
Reaches members who turn on notifications. On iPhone, members add the app to their home screen first, which takes a few seconds.
Sell tickets, downloads and T-shirts where your members already are. The money goes straight to your church's own Stripe account.
Conferences, retreats, banquets and concerts. Every buyer gets a QR code, and your team checks people in at the door from a phone.
Study guides, sermon series and e-books. Buyers get a private download link by email.
T-shirts and hoodies in every size and colour, books and CDs. No shipping: members pick up on Sunday with their order code.

In-app giving: Stripe's standard fees plus a 1% platform fee per gift (0.5% on Ministry), shown to givers before they give, and givers can choose to cover it. Churches in Nigeria: ask us about naira pricing. Prices in US dollars. See our terms.
No. On Starter and Growth, members open a link or scan a QR code and add the app to their home screen in seconds. It works like an app, with its own icon and notifications. On Ministry, you also get real App Store and Google Play apps under your church's name. Those need your church's own Apple ($99 a year) and Google ($25 once) developer accounts, and usually go live 2–4 weeks after the accounts are open.
We do. Send us your logo, service times, ministries and giving details, and we build your app in about a week. After that, your staff can update everything from their phones.
Members give by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or bank transfer, once or every week or month. Gifts go straight to your church's own Stripe account, never through ours. Stripe charges its standard processing fee and we add a 1% platform fee (0.5% on Ministry), and givers can tick a box to cover the fees so your church receives the full gift. Prefer your current giving page? The Give button can open that instead.
Yes. If you stream on YouTube, your live service appears in the app when it starts, and past services stay a tap away.
Only the member who sent a request and your church's pastors and admins can read it. Other members, other churches and ChurchForUs staff can't. You can set requests to delete automatically.
No. Your plan costs the same whether 40 or 4,000 people use your app. We don't charge per member, per giver or per attendee, and there's no limit on members. The only part that moves is the giving fee, which is a small share of each gift.
Yes, with the Church Shop. Sell tickets with a QR code for the door (conferences, retreats, banquets, concerts, camps), downloads (study guides, sermon series, e-books, chord charts your church owns) and items people collect at church (T-shirts and hoodies in every size and colour, books, CDs, fundraiser items). Money goes straight to your church's own Stripe account, with the same small fee as giving. It's included in Ministry and $29 a month on Starter or Growth.
Tithes and offerings: use Giving, which handles funds and recurring gifts. Anything that has to be posted to the buyer: there's no shipping, so items are collected at church. Raffles and prize draws: they often need a licence from your state, so check before selling chances. And anything your church doesn't have the right to sell, such as other people's music or books as downloads.
No contract. Cancel any month and we'll export your content for you.
Free versions such as KJV, WEB, Reina-Valera 1909 and Louis Segond, plus Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa Bibles. Licensed versions like NIV and NKJV are coming as an add-on.
Tell us a little about your church and when you're free. We'll confirm a 20-minute video call within one business day.
