Planning Center is the leading church management software platform used by over 100,000 churches worldwide to organize worship services, manage congregations, coordinate volunteers, process donations, and engage members. The platform offers a modular approach with eight integrated products that churches can mix and match based on their specific needs, with a generous free tier for smaller congregations.
The platform includes Planning Center People (member database, reporting, and communication — always free), Services (worship planning and volunteer scheduling), Registrations (event management and ticketing), Giving (online and text-to-give donations), Check-Ins (child and attendance tracking), Groups (small group management), Calendar (facility and room booking), and Church Center (member-facing app and website). Each module works independently or together, sharing data seamlessly across the ecosystem.
Key Features: Unlimited member database with custom fields and reporting, worship service planning with song libraries and chord charts, volunteer scheduling with automated confirmations and reminders, online giving with ACH bank transfers (0% + $0.30) and credit card processing (2.15% + $0.30), child check-in with security labels and allergy tracking, event registration with custom forms and payment collection, small group management with leader tools and attendance tracking, facility/room booking and resource management, Church Center mobile app and web platform for members, Music Stand app for worship team chord charts and lyrics, email and SMS communication tools, custom reporting and data analytics, API access for integrations, and multi-campus support.
Pricing: Planning Center uses a unique modular pricing model where each product is priced independently based on usage tiers. People (member database) is always free with unlimited contacts. Services starts free for up to 5 team members, then scales from around $17/month. Giving starts free for up to 10 monthly donations, then scales up. Check-Ins starts free for up to 10 daily check-ins. Groups starts free for up to 15 group members. Calendar starts free for 1 room. Registrations starts free for up to 5 attendees.
