Mooresville, North Carolina, United States
What it is
ChurchDev provides website design, hosting, and management services for churches, with church-focused content and administration tools. Its CMS includes a drag-and-drop builder intended for people without coding skills. Plans list unlimited pages, storage, bandwidth, sermons, blog posts, and podcasts, alongside calendars, event registration, prayer requests, volunteer signups, online giving, and staff directories. An included mobile app lets members watch sermons, view events, and receive messages. The optional member directory supports password-protected access, self-service, guest logins, and CSV import. Live streaming can reach church websites and social media, including Facebook and YouTube, but requires an active ChurchDev website and has monthly allowances of 10 to 50 hours. Online giving is processed through Stripe at 2.9% plus $0.30 per transaction, with no ChurchDev markup. Website plans start at $29 a month; some options also list one-time setup charges. ChurchDev lists weekday phone support from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
