TrueConnect+

What TrueConnect+ is

TrueConnect+ brings church administration and member activities together in a web-based platform. Churches can plan services, livestream, collect donations, manage people, run children’s check-in, communicate, and handle operations. Each service record connects worship and sermon preparation with production cues, volunteer assignments, communications, and follow-up. Members can browse churches by city, denomination, or focus area, follow multiple churches from one profile, and create a free individual account. That account includes a Bible reader, reading plans, a prayer community, the Discover directory, and giving history. The church plan is aimed at pastors, executives, and church administrators and includes unlimited staff seats. TrueConnect+ is a Progressive Web App; members can add it to a device home screen through a browser. Donations use Stripe Connect. ACH gifts carry a 0.8% fee capped at $5 per transaction, while card rates pass through at Stripe’s standard rates without markup. The pricing page lists QuickBooks Online SalesReceipt push and one-way Planning Center sync. The service also describes encryption, security audits, access controls, authentication, and secure payment processing.
