What it is
TimelyChurch brings church management, bookkeeping, and a church website together for small and growing churches. Its people and family tools include a searchable directory, family links, notes, tags, milestones, and automatic follow-ups. Online giving handles one-time and recurring donations, with donations posted to a fund-accounting ledger. Card payments are processed by Stripe, and TimelyChurch says it adds no platform fee to giving. Child check-in offers security codes, guardian-matched pickup, allergy alerts, name-tag printing, and real-time headcounts. Volunteer scheduling includes fair-rotation automation and Telegram confirmations. The website builder uses templates, custom domains, and event, giving, and group data drawn from TimelyChurch. It runs on Android, iOS, and the web. A free plan is available; Growth is $49 a month, and Pro is $129 a month. TimelyChurch began as a church CRM project in 2013 and adopted its current name in 2025.
