Steward gathers budgets, tithes, funds, expenses and reconciliation into one warm, accountable platform — so every gift the Lord entrusts to your ministry is received, recorded, and reported with integrity.
Purpose-built modules that honour the way churches actually move — from Sunday offerings to building projects to annual budgets signed off by your pastor.
A dignified, members-first giving flow. Paystack-powered, receipted, credited to the General Fund automatically.
Every budget change flows Admin → Treasurer → Pastor. Nothing goes live until your pastor validates it.
Funds auto-create on budget validation and stay linked to line items. Members can donate to any specific fund.
Submit, review, validate, ready-to-pay, paid. Each step gated to exactly one role. POs auto-emailed to vendors.
Raise funds for impromptu needs with a mandatory standalone budget, and close campaigns only after a Pastor-approved usage report.
Drops unmatched bank credits into a gentle conversational review. You Approve, Override, or Reject — never auto-posted.
Self-registration with KYC. Admin cannot view a profile without the member's consent. Donor names are encrypted on shared records.
Unlimited hierarchy — HQ, zones, districts, local assemblies. Automated remittances between parent and child churches.
Every create, edit, approve and reject is logged — including the Root user. Transparent to every role with audit access.
No single person can move money alone. Steward codifies the checks and balances that protect your ministry — and the people in it.
Adds a line item, edits a budget, creates a fund — every change is saved as a DRAFT.
The treasurer sees a clear diff of old vs. new values and either approves or gently rejects with a reason.
Final spiritual & financial authority. Only the pastor can move a draft to LIVE.
The change is activated, audit-logged, and relevant roles are notified — all in one motion.
Super-admin with OTP sent to the pastor's email. Every action logged publicly.
Final authority. Validates budgets, expenses, and campaigns. Sees everything.
Pre-approves drafts, reviews expenses, handles payments. View-only on revenue.
Records cash, submits expenses, drafts changes. Can never self-approve.
Gives tithes, donates to funds, views budgets. Full control of their own profile.
Financial software for the Church must be above reproach. Steward is engineered from the ground up to prevent unilateral action, protect donor privacy, and leave nothing unlogged.
Even the super-admin cannot log in without an OTP delivered to the pastor's inbox.
MetaMap-verified identity before any module is accessible. No exceptions.
Member names are encrypted on shared donation records. Only amounts are public.
Every create, edit, approve, reject, login — permanent, timestamped, attributable.
All non-cash income flows through regulated payment infrastructure. No back-doors.
Expenses can never be deleted. Funds can only be archived with reconciled balances.
Unlimited depth. HQ, zones, districts, local assemblies — each isolated, all consolidated.
ISO 27001 data centres, encrypted at rest and in transit. Daily backups.
From a storefront assembly of fifty to a continental denomination of half a million — Steward meets your people where they are.
“Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” — 1 Corinthians 4:2
“Before Steward, our treasurer spent Sunday nights reconciling. Now the AI handles it in minutes, our pastor signs off from his phone, and every member can see exactly how the building fund is progressing. We've never felt more accountable to God and to our congregation.”
Steward is free for every church. We earn only on successful transactions, at rates your treasurer will be proud of.
All core modules, unlimited members, unlimited audit history, multi-church network — no monthly subscription, no per-member fees. Ever.
Yes. Our Assembly plan is free forever for congregations up to 500 members — all core modules, unlimited audit history, Paystack payments included. We only charge larger churches because their volume justifies the additional infrastructure.
Every financial change made by an administrator is saved as a DRAFT. The treasurer reviews and approves it first; only then does it reach the pastor for final validation. Nothing is posted to your books until that chain completes — and every step is logged permanently in the audit trail.
Yes. Upload your monthly bank statement (CSV or PDF) and our AI reconciliation agent matches transactions to your Steward records. Unmatched credits (e.g. direct transfers from members) are surfaced for admin review — never auto-posted without approval.
Members self-register and go through MetaMap KYC verification. Administrators cannot view a member's full profile without either that member's consent or the pastor's override. On any shared donation record, donor names are encrypted (e.g. "J*** A***") — only amounts are visible.
Yes. Our Network plan supports unlimited hierarchy depth — headquarters, zones, districts, local assemblies. Each church's books are isolated, but HQ can view consolidated reports and configure automated remittances between parent and child churches.
Steward is in active use across 38 countries. We support NGN, GHS, KES, USD, GBP, EUR, ZAR and more. Paystack provides our primary rails for African markets; additional gateways are available on the Network plan.
Absolutely. We offer a guided data-import workflow for members, historical revenue, and budgets. On the Parish plan and above, our team assists with a managed migration at no extra cost.
Join thousands of churches worldwide who have replaced spreadsheets, suspicion, and Sunday-night reconciliation marathons with one warm, accountable platform.
