Know every person.
Grow every ministry.
KnowMyChurch is how a growing church stays a family — every member and household known, every group shepherded, every child safe at check-in, every visitor followed up — with the administration running quietly underneath. Member records are free; add the modules your ministry needs.
No card. No sales call. Your church's site is ready in minutes — or try the demo as any persona, no sign-up needed at all.
Sign up in five minutes
Church name, your name, a mobile OTP, and the web address you want. No card, no call.
We build your church's site
Your own site on your own private databases. We email you the moment it's ready.
Bring your people in
Start with member records — free — and switch on modules as your ministry needs them.
One church system, in pieces you choose.
Every church is different, so nothing here is compulsory. Start with People — free — and add what your ministry actually runs on.
People
Member and household records, contact details, the member directory, self-service profiles and corrections, a digital membership card, and member sign-in.
Groups
Small groups at any depth your church uses — leaders and oversight, weekly reporting, a meeting planner, who has not reported, and a public find-a-group page.
Children
Age-banded classes per campus and service, check-in and check-out with a family code, guardian consent, teacher registers, a parent's diary, absence lists.
Events
Public listings, member and household registration, waiting lists, rosters, attendance, and on-the-day check-in.
Care
Visitor welcome cards, prayer requests, dedications and baptisms — each on a workflow with stages, a desk that owns it, and a tracking link for the person who asked.
Follow-up
What happens after a visitor's card: a timeline of contacts per campus and service, a caller's queue, reminders, automatic closure.
Messaging
SMS, WhatsApp and email to members, with your church's own sender identity and a spend cap you control. Includes a monthly allowance; further credit as you need it.
Giving
Online giving, receipts and contribution records — coming after the first churches are aboard.
Assistant
An assistant that answers your staff's questions from your church's own guides and records — not from the internet's idea of your church.
Built for how India's churches actually work.
The world's church software was built for another continent's habits. KnowMyChurch was built the other way round — starting from the mobile number, the family SIM, WhatsApp, the rupee, and congregations that worship in more than one language.
Your mobile number is the identity
Members sign in with an OTP to their own number — and a family sharing one SIM simply pick their name. No email address required, because for many congregations email is the front door closed, not opened.
Global platforms sign everyone in by email.
WhatsApp and SMS, where India actually reads
OTPs, class notices and event reminders over DLT-registered Indian SMS and WhatsApp — reaching every mobile in the congregation, with a spend cap the church controls.
Email-first tools talk to inboxes nobody opens — most can't text an Indian number at all.
Rupees, monthly, on the page
₹700–₹4,000 per module per month by congregation size — no dollar billing, no forex card, no annual contract. A 200-member church runs three modules for about ₹2,100 a month.
Global platforms bill in dollars, annually — typically lakhs a year at this size.
Three languages, one church
English, Hindi and Telugu carried through services, classes and forms — and the interface is ours, so your language can be next.
Translation queues at a vendor abroad are where such requests go to wait.
India's data law, minded from inside
Hosted in India, with DPDP-aligned consent handling and an automated compliance monitor inside the product — not a policy PDF, a live score.
Data residency is an afterthought when the product was built for another country.
Your name on the door
Your church's own web address, your logo, your vocabulary on every screen — zones, cells, schools, whatever your ministry calls things.
One-size platforms make every church talk like the software.
The price is on the page.
Per module, per month, in bands by how many member records you keep. You pay for your size and what you use — nothing else, and nothing behind a sales call.
How big is your congregation?
Which modules would you run?
3 modules × ₹700 at your size.
Member records are free at every size. Messaging includes a monthly allowance; heavy senders top up. During the introductory period, everything is on at no charge.
KnowMyChurch and Planning Center, side by side.
Before KnowMyChurch went to its first church, we compared it row by row — 83 features — against Planning Center. Here is the part that decides it for a church in India; the full sheet is yours for the asking.
Compared: August 2026, reviewed September 2026Basis: Planning Center's published pricing pages and product documentation, alongside hands-on use of both productsScope: 83 features across people, groups, children, events, giving and messaging
The models differ more than the numbers: per-module in rupees against per-product tiers in dollars.
| KnowMyChurch | Planning Center | |
|---|---|---|
| Currency | Rupees. No forex card, no dollar billing. | US dollars, on an international card. |
| How it's priced | Per module, per month, flat within your size band. | Per product, in tiers that step up as your people count grows. |
| What's free | People — members, households, directory — free at every size. | People is free too — credit where due. The other products each have a small free tier a growing church outgrows. |
| Where the price is | On this page, with a calculator. | Published per product; you assemble the total yourself. |
| A 200-member church | Groups + Children + Care: ₹2,100 a month (₹25,200 a year). | Three to four products at their published lower tiers: roughly $60–100 a month — about ₹5,300–8,800 a month (₹63,000–1,06,000 a year). |
| A 2,000-member church | Every module KnowMyChurch offers: about ₹28,000 a month (₹3.4 lakh a year) before any bundle discount. | The products a church of that size actually needs: roughly $9,000 a year — about ₹8 lakh — in our August 2026 comparison. |
| The contract | Monthly. Turn a module off and stop paying for it. | Monthly per product; annual billing available. |
Compared August 2026 against Planning Center's published pricing and documentation; dollar–rupee conversions use ₹88 to the US dollar and are approximate. Planning Center is a strong product with real strengths — worship planning above all — and it is a registered trademark of its owner. If anything here is out of date, tell us and we will correct it.
83 rows, honestly kept — including the nine where Planning Center is ahead today. Ask and we send the whole sheet; honest homework or it isn't homework.

Separate by construction
Every church runs with its own databases. One church can never see another's members — not by policy, by architecture.
Never destroyed, never hostage
If a module lapses, its screens stop — your records don't disappear. Export your own data any time.
You can leave
If KnowMyChurch stops being right for your church, take everything and go. A platform that makes leaving hard is one churches are right to distrust.
See it working before you decide anything.
The demo is a real church site for a fictional congregation. Pick any persona — a pastor, a group leader, a parent — and sign in with their invented number. No OTP is ever sent: the code appears right on the screen. Break nothing, and picture your own congregation in it.
