TimelyChurch
What it is
TimelyChurch brings church management, bookkeeping, and a church website together for small and growing churches. Its people tools include a searchable directory, family links, notes, tags, milestones, and automatic follow-ups. Online giving supports one-time and recurring donations, which can be recorded in a fund-accounting ledger. Card payments run through 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. Churches can build a site using templates and custom domains, with event, giving, and group information drawn from the platform. Security controls include role-based permissions, optional administrator two-factor authentication, activity logging, HTTPS, and isolated church data. A free plan covers up to 100 people and 500 MB of storage. Growth is $49 a month; it includes up to 500 people, three kiosks, 20 website pages, and 5 GB of storage. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web.
