Stewardship FAQ

Common questions about pricing and subscriptions.

Click any question below to view the details.

How does billing work if we subscribe before our 60-day trial is over?
When you subscribe during your 60-day trial, your first payment locks in your $54/month Founding spot right away, and every remaining trial day is added free before your next billing cycle begins.
Are all 8 ministry areas included, or do we pay extra to turn modules on?
Every church gets all 8 areas from day one with zero add-on fees. Start with your directory, and add check-in, worship planning, volunteer scheduling, forms, or giving whenever you are ready.
What happens when members choose to cover online giving fees?
Online giving connects directly to your church's own Stripe account, with a 0.2% Tent54 fee alongside Stripe's processing rate. When a giver ticks the option to cover the fee, that cost is added on top of their gift so your church receives 100% of the intended donation amount in its bank deposit.
Is there a hard database cap of 500 people?
No. “Under-500” describes the congregation size, rhythms, and staff reality Tent54 is built for. We never lock your database at 500 records or bump you into higher pricing tiers as your church grows.
How do we import our directory from our current spreadsheet or ChMS?
Tent54 includes a self-serve CSV spreadsheet import tool with a visual column-matching step and record preview before you import.
Who owns our church data, and how long is it kept if we leave?
Your congregation owns its records completely. You can download your entire church database as clean spreadsheets at any time. Trial data is kept for 30 days and paid data for 60 days after cancellation so you have ample time to export.
