Why is HolyJot free for small churches?
It's our mission. We believe every congregation — regardless of size or budget — deserves modern tools for ministry. Larger churches on paid plans help us keep the lights on and the starter plan free for churches like yours. No strings attached.
Frequently asked questions
What is included in HolyJot's free church management plan?
The free starter plan includes member management for up to 50 members, online giving, event management, a sermon library with member note-taking, the FaithAI Scripture widget for your church website, and individual faith journaling for all members — with no credit card required and no time limit.
Is HolyJot really free forever for small churches?
Yes. HolyJot's starter plan is free forever for churches with up to 50 members. We believe every church deserves great tools regardless of budget. Our mission-driven model means we subsidize small church access through growth in larger congregations on paid plans.
What are the paid plan limits and pricing?
Paid plans start at $49/month and unlock unlimited members, advanced analytics, branded church apps, small group management, campaign giving goals, and priority support. All features are included in each paid tier — no per-module fees.
How does HolyJot compare to Planning Center, Breeze, or Church Community Builder?
Those platforms charge $50–$300/month with no free tier. HolyJot offers a genuine free plan plus discipleship features those platforms lack — including AI tools, Bible journaling for members, guided study plans, and a FaithAI widget for your website.

Most churches are fully set up in under 10 minutes. Create your account, name your church, invite your administrator, and you're ready to add members and accept giving. No technical expertise required.
