All-in-One Platform for Ministry Management
ChMeetings combines all the tools your church needs in one place, eliminating the need for multiple apps or spreadsheets.
Membership Database & Groups
Keep an organized record of all your people, members, visitors, families, and groups in a secure database. Quickly search and update information, and even segment people into groups (e.g. youth, choir, small groups) for better pastoral care.
Events & Attendance:
Schedule worship services, Bible studies, and events (one-time or recurring) with ease. Members can register online, and you can manage check-ins (including child check-in) and track attendance effortlessly. ChMeetings provides calendars and automated reminders so nobody misses an event.
Communication Tools
Reach your congregation wherever they are. Send announcements via email, SMS, or push notification from within ChMeetings, or post updates to member portals. You can even enable group chats for ministries or committees, fostering community interaction beyond Sunday service. Everyone stays informed and connected, even when plans change at the last minute.
Volunteer Scheduling
Organize and schedule volunteers for events and services. Assign roles (ushers, teachers, musicians, etc.) and let volunteers sign up for time slots that work for them. The system sends reminders so each service is fully staffed and runs smoothly. No more last-minute scrambles, ChMeetings keeps your ministry teams coordinated.
Accounting & Contributions
Track in-person donations and online giving all in one place. Record cash or check donations, and use online giving via Paystack for credit card or mobile payments. ChMeetings charges no transaction fees, you only pay Paystack’s standard low fees so it’s cost-effective. The accounting module helps you monitor funds, budgets, and expenses with ease, producing reports that keep your finance team and auditors happy.
Mobile App Access
Everything above is available on the go through the ChMeetings mobile app. Both church leaders and members get value from the app. Leaders can manage operations and send updates from their phone. Meanwhile, members can check event schedules, join groups, receive notifications, and even view their own giving records via My Giving reports – fostering transparency and engagement. It’s like putting your church office in your pocket!
Seamless Online Giving with Paystack Integration
ChMeetings’ online giving feature – powered by Paystack – lets your congregation donate from anywhere with just a few clicks. They can give via card, bank transfer, or mobile payment, whichever they prefer, thanks to Paystack’s flexible options (Visa, MasterCard, SnapScan, EFT, and more)
Local Currency & Fast Settlements
Donations go directly to your church’s bank account in Rands. Paystack is built for African markets, so you don’t have to worry about currency conversions or long delays. In fact, funds are typically settled within 1–2 business days
Low Fees, No Hidden Costs
ChMeetings itself takes 0% cut of online donations. You simply pay the standard Paystack transaction fee (which is small and transparent). This means more of each tithe or offering goes to your ministry’s work, not to software fees.
Secure and Reliable
Paystack provides enterprise-level security (PCI-DSS compliance, fraud monitoring, etc.) to protect each transaction. Your donors’ data is encrypted and safe. Plus, every successful or failed transaction is logged in ChMeetings, so your records stay accurate. You can easily generate giving statements or reports for accountability.
