Everything your church runs on, in one place.
People, giving, groups, events, check-in, sermons, a member app with a built-in Bible, texting, a website, and real fund accounting — joined up in one modern system that speaks your congregation’s language and has the lowest, most transparent giving fees in ministry. Groups talk by email, so the half of your church that never logs in is still in the conversation. Move off your old software in a day, not a season.
Or take the two-minute tour — no sign-up, nothing to install.
Everything a church needs to run — included.
Most churches duct-tape five tools together. PewHQ is the whole back office and the front door, built to work as one.
People & households
A living directory with families, photos, custom fields, and one-click Undo imports from any tool.
Giving & fund accounting
Online, recurring, and plate cash/check giving. Funds split into restricted and unrestricted the way your auditor asks, months you can close so last year stops moving, and every bank deposit matched to the gifts inside it.
Group email threads
Every group gets an address. Members post by email and reply from whatever they already use — no app, no login. Replying answers one person; reply-all answers the group. The web archive is for reading back, not the price of entry.
Youth safety
Groups with young people in them copy parents on everything automatically, and a parent can download the whole record any time. Nothing is ever quietly deleted. The answer to “what was said to my child” that Discord and GroupMe cannot give.
Groups & serving
Small groups, attendance, serving teams, and worship set lists with CCLI reporting.
Events & check-in
A church calendar with RSVPs, plus secure, code-matched child check-in and labels.
Member app
An installable app your members actually open — giving, groups, directory, prayer, pledges, and reading plans.
Built-in Bible
A fast, offline-ready Bible reader with search, highlights, notes, and bookmarks — read two translations side by side, even across languages.
In their language
The whole member experience in English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and Portuguese — each member picks their own.
Sermons & live streaming
Catalog your YouTube messages, stream services in-app, and get an auto podcast feed.
Messaging
Email, two-way SMS, push alerts and church chat from one place — plus a newsletter builder that lays itself out and fills in this week from your own calendar.
Social media
Turn any sermon or event into ready-to-post captions with AI — hashtags and an image idea included — then post to Facebook, Instagram, and X.
Outreach & follow-up
A connect card starts the follow-up on its own, so nobody has to remember on a Monday. One screen shows who arrived and what happened next, with AI-drafted messages and plain-English questions of your own data.
Pastoral care
Prayer requests, visitation logs, benevolence, meal trains, and life milestones so no one slips through the cracks.
Website builder
A clean public church site — service times, sermons, events, and giving — published in minutes.
Forms & registration
Paid event registration through your own Stripe, tied to the event on your calendar — so people register from where they saw it, and a ticket never lands on a year-end giving statement.
Open & extensible
A public API, webhooks, background checks, facilities booking, multi-campus, and pledge campaigns.
…and it all shares one directory, so your data is never in five places again.
And it pays for itself in giving fees alone.
For any church with real online giving, processing fees dwarf the monthly subscription — and most platforms quietly take 2.9% + 30¢ on every gift. PewHQ passes processing through at cost and makes bank transfer the default. See what that’s worth to your ministry.
What your congregation gives online in a typical month.
PewHQ makes ACH the default. At ~0.8% it’s far cheaper than card — the more that shifts, the more you keep.
Estimate for comparison. Assumes a typical 2.9% card rate today versus PewHQ’s at-cost ~2.2% card / ~0.8% ACH with no platform markup; excludes fixed per-transaction amounts, which PewHQ also keeps at cost. Your exact savings depend on your gift mix.
Four things the incumbents never joined up.
Modern church tools are shallow; capable ones feel dated. PewHQ closes the seams none of them close well — including the one every church still solves with a mailing list nobody maintains.
Migrate in a day, not a season
Losing your history is the #1 reason churches stay stuck. Our AI-assisted importer brings over your people, giving history, groups, and attendance from Planning Center, Breeze, CCB, Realm and more. Preview every import before it commits, re-run it without creating duplicates, and undo any batch in one click. Reversible, provable, done.
Real fund accounting, ask-your-data reporting
Funds presented the way an audit and a Form 990 already ask — with donor restrictions and without — months you can close so a reported number stops moving, and every bank deposit itemised down to the gifts inside it. Then just ask: “who visited three times but isn’t in a group yet?” No report builder to learn.
An app members actually open
Directory, groups, events, giving and check-in in a member app that feels like the apps people already use — included, not a four-figure upsell. Engagement is where declining attendance is won.
Groups that talk, by email
Every group gets an address. People post and reply from the email they already use — no app, no password, nobody left out because they never logged in. Replying answers one person; reply-all answers the group, which is the one thing every other system gets wrong. And when there are young people in a group, their parents are copied automatically and can download the whole record — the reason to leave Discord.
Pricing you can read on one screen.
No demos to unlock a quote. No multi-year contracts. No counting your people to see what tier you’re in. Giving is free to enable on every plan — you only ever pay processing, at cost.
