The ChurchPlan App

One app for your church. With a window to the world.

Every church on ChurchPlan gets its own custom download link. Members open one app and land straight in your church — your name, your content, your community. And unlike the branded apps of the last decade, it doesn’t end at your walls: it’s an extension to the outside world, totally controlled by the church.

One download link per church — share it once, and every member lands in the right place.

Nobody got a manual. Everyone’s already using it.
The ChurchPlan app spreads member to member — download, sign in, and your whole church is in their pocket.
The branded app, rethought

A window to the world — and the church holds the handle.

Legacy branded church apps are walled gardens: beautiful on the inside, invisible from the street. Only the parish can enter — so the parish is all they ever reach.

Our philosophy is different. ChurchPlan has a window to the outside — fully controlled by the church. Publish the summer festival to everyone nearby and let guests discover, book and give. Keep the liturgy schedule, the directory and Grade 5 strictly members-only. Open or closed isn’t a platform decision; it’s the church’s decision, made item by item.

LEGACY BRANDED APPS

A wall around the parish

  •   Closed to registered members only
  •   Events invisible to the neighbourhood
  •   A visitor can’t discover, book, or give
  •   A neighbour moved to give has no way in
  •   Growth stops at the walls
THE CHURCHPLAN APP

A window with a handle

  •   Publish a popular event to everyone nearby
  •   Or make it exclusive to members — one setting
  •   Guests can discover, book and give when the church opens the window
  •   Non-members can give too — a new revenue stream walls never collect
  •   Global · Diocese-only · Church-only — controlled per item
Your controls

You set the audience for every event

Every event has an audience dial. Open it to the wider community, share it across your diocese, keep it to your own congregation, or limit it to one group inside your church. Try it below.

Who can see and book this event?
Only your own congregation can see and book this event.
Members of other churches won't see it at all.

Whichever you choose, only the event details you publish are ever shared. Member and giving data never leave your church.

The web app

Nothing to install. Everything in the browser.

The same platform, from any device with a browser. A grandmother on a shared computer, a visitor who scanned a QR code at the festival, a family checking the calendar from a laptop — nobody is asked to download anything first.

Give

Give in seconds

Donation pages that work for members and guests alike — with tax receipts issued automatically. CRA, IRS, ATO and NZ IRD ready — with HMRC-ready Giving Summaries for the UK & EU.

Book

Register and pay for events

Guests can discover, book and pay for anything the church publishes to the world — and get their QR ticket instantly.

Follow

Calendar and announcements

Liturgies, services and announcements, always current — the same source of truth the app and the portal share.

Every member

One app, sized and spoken for everyone.

A congregation is grandparents and teenagers, lifelong members and newcomers — eyes of more than one age, and households of more than one tongue. The app meets each of them exactly where they are.

Text that fits the reader.

Four sizes, from compact to extra large — applied instantly across every screen. A grandmother doesn’t ask for help with the app; the app adjusts to her.

Menu → Accessibility · applies app-wide

Worship in your own words.

Members switch the whole app to their language in two taps. One parish, many mother tongues — every household is spoken to in the language it prays in.

Menu → Change Language · instant, app-wide
Multi-language

A parish that prays in five languages shouldn’t need five systems.

Most church management systems are built for one language and one generation. A diaspora parish is neither. ChurchPlan is a multi-language ChMS: every member reads the app in their own tongue, from the same church, on the same day.

Per member

Each person picks their own

Language is a member setting, not a parish setting. One announcement, sent once, reaches a grandmother in her language and her grandson in his.

App-wide

The whole app, not a corner of it

Menus, giving, tickets, the digital ID card, class and curriculum screens — the interface switches everywhere at once, in two taps, instantly.

No extra work

Nothing for the office to maintain

No parallel site, no duplicated announcements, no translator on the rota. Your team publishes once and the app does the rest.

For immigrant and diaspora parishes this is usually the difference between an app the whole family opens and one only the English speakers do — and it is the generation gap, not the language, that quietly costs a church its young adults.

The admin portal

Where your team runs the church.

Staff, clergy and servants get a full console for the whole platform. Publish once and it appears everywhere — in the app, on the web, in every member’s pocket.

Finance

One ledger, gift to settlement

Giving, event payments and settlements in one place — receipts issued automatically in every jurisdiction you operate in.

People

A living CRM

Members, families, ministries and classes — with role-based access, so every servant sees exactly what they should and nothing more.

Publish

Change once, updates everywhere

Events, liturgies, curriculum and announcements are managed here and delivered to every surface — no re-typing, no drift.

For dioceses

One dashboard for the whole diocese.

ChurchPlan doesn’t stop at a single parish. A diocese gets its own dashboard with every church rolled up into one view — districts, congregations, active subscriptions, and the parishes that need attention — and can switch into any church and back in one click, while each church keeps control of its own data. Multi-parish networks are covered by Diocese licensing.
