What Digital Church is
Digital Church is a suite for churches running online ministry through a website or app. Its website builder offers templates for more than 20 types of pages, and the event calendar supports free or paid registrations and connections to streaming services. The platform can publish sermons automatically from YouTube, with sermon notes, PDF downloads, audio podcasts, and series. Other tools include online giving, live streaming, forms, and private small groups where members can communicate and share worksheets and notes. The page-builder Form module works with Digital Church forms, Elexio forms, and Planning Center forms. Stripe Giving accepts credit and debit card gifts on Digital Church pages through Stripe Connect, routing them to the church's connected Stripe account. Plans begin with Starter and extend through Standard, Premium, and Unlimited, adding tools such as sermon publishing, small groups, online learning, ministry teams, and web-team services. Unlimited covers hosting, software updates, backups, security, and full content management for one website per subscription. It does not include a native app, which can be added for $49/mo. Digital Church lists web and API platforms, custom domains, an event calendar, donation links, staff pages, and multi-site support. The company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio.
