Support

By a pastor, for pastors

For churches in Africa, the diaspora and everywhere else. Our team sits in pews, counts offerings and runs media desks too — when you write to us, a person who understands church life replies.

By the church

ChurchBright is built by people who serve in local churches — ushers, media teams, administrators and pastors. We know Sunday mornings, midweek services and the end-of-month remittance rush, because we live them.

For the church

Every core feature is on every plan, prices are in your currency and your data is always yours to export. Small churches and church plants start free, and we help you import your list and set things up.

Why your church needs its own app

WhatsApp groups are noisy and announcements get lost. A church app puts sermons, giving, events and groups in one place your members already carry —…

Questions churches ask us

Is the free plan really free?

Yes. Churches with up to 50 members can use every core feature free — no card needed — with a monthly SMS allowance included. Upgrade only when you grow.

Can our members give in our currency?

Yes. You connect your church’s own payment account, so members give in the currencies it supports — naira, cedi, shilling, rand, pound, euro, dollar and more — and the money goes straight to your church.

We have branches in different cities and countries. Will it work for us?

Yes. You can model headquarters, regions, zones and parishes, limit each branch admin to their own branch, give branches their own currency and timezone, and see consolidated reports at HQ.

How do SMS units work?

One unit is one text-message page (160 characters, or 70 with emoji or special characters). Every plan includes monthly units, and you can top up at any time. WhatsApp, email and app notifications do not use SMS units.

Can we move our existing data in?

Yes. Import members from Excel, Google Sheets or any system that exports CSV. Our team can help on a demo call.

Do we need a developer for the app or website?

No. Your member app and website are ready as soon as you sign up. Choose a theme, add your logo and colours, replace the template text and publish.

Give your church the tools it deserves
