Pricing
$299/month
For your whole church.
Every product. Every feature. No tiers. No modules. No add-ons. The five usage meters below are transparently controlled by you with caps you set — we will never bill a dollar you didn't authorize.
No credit card to create the account. Free for individual members forever.
In the $299
Every product. Every feature. Included.
The full platform. Not a starter kit, not a base tier with upsells. Everything below is included for every church on TrueConnect+, the day they start.
Five things you actually use are metered
Pay for what you use. Cap what you pay.
Things that cost real money to deliver — streaming bandwidth, media storage, email sends, SMS fees — are metered. You set a dollar cap on each. You choose what happens when you hit it. We never charge a dollar you didn't authorize.
Streaming minutes
per minute streamedLive ingest + delivery for every minute you broadcast or replay. A typical Sunday service is 60–90 minutes; replays counted separately.
Media storage
per GB stored per monthVOD archive, sermon library, podcast assets. Usage prorated for partial months.
Broadcast emails
per email sentEmail Studio campaigns and workflow-triggered broadcasts. Transactional emails (receipts, password resets) are not metered.
Childcare SMS
per SMS sentParent pickup notifications and emergency room messages. Carrier fees passed through.
Database storage
per GB storedMember records, audit logs, attachments. Most churches stay under the baseline indefinitely.
Live per-unit costs
Per-meter pricing is set in your organization billing console — exact per-unit costs are visible the moment you log in, before you authorize anything. We deliberately don't put rates here that could go stale on a static page.
How you control every meter
These are the actual controls in the billing console. No fine print.
Per meter
Dollar cap
You decide the maximum dollar amount per billing cycle. The system stops billing the moment you hit it.
Per meter
Mode
Auto-stop: meter pauses when cap is hit (no overage, no charge). Auto-bill: meter continues, billing up to your cap.
Per meter
Notification threshold
We email you at the percentage you choose (default 80%) so you can adjust the cap before the meter stops.
Our promise: We will never bill a dollar above the cap you set. Ever. If you set $0 on auto-stop, you pay $299 flat regardless of usage.
The compare-at math
What you'd pay to assemble TrueConnect+ from parts.
We don't make these numbers up. They're the publicly-listed prices on competitor websites for the modules a growing church (~500 weekend adults) typically subscribes to. Verify them yourself before signing anything.
