We Help You Install.
One-time setup. Yours forever. No recurring fees.
ChurchCMS is free and open source — built to reach every corner of the world. Run it on your own infrastructure, customise it for your community, and own it completely. We get you set up and hand it over.
Built for those who want
to own their stack.
ChurchCMS is open source by conviction — built to serve churches across every language, region, and context. This installation service is for the people building on that foundation.
01
Churches with Their Own Hosting
You already have a server or hosting plan and want ChurchCMS running on it — not on someone else's infrastructure. Your data stays exactly where you want it.
02
Developers & Development Partners
You're building on top of ChurchCMS — adding custom modules, local payment gateways, or integrations specific to your region. Start from a clean, properly configured install.
03
Agencies Serving Multiple Churches
You manage church technology for several congregations and want a reliable, repeatable setup process — not a DIY guessing game — for every new client deployment.
From blank server
to live ChurchCMS.
We handle the full setup process on your server and hand over a working, configured ChurchCMS instance — ready for your team to use.
Server Environment Setup
We configure your server with the required stack — PHP, Nginx, MySQL, Redis, and all necessary dependencies — correctly and securely.
ChurchCMS Installation & Configuration
Full installation of the latest ChurchCMS release, environment configuration, and initial settings tailored to your church's context.
Database Setup & Data Migration
Fresh database provisioning, or import of existing member data if you are migrating from another platform like Breeze or Planning Center.
Domain & SSL Configuration
Your domain pointed, Nginx configured, and SSL certificate issued and active — so your ChurchCMS runs on HTTPS from the first login.
Admin Account & Handover
Admin credentials set up, a walkthrough of your new installation, and full handover to your team. You're in control from day one.
3 Months Post-Install Support
Questions after the handover? We're available by email for three months to help with configuration queries and minor adjustments.
Open Source.
Built to Reach
the Whole World.
ChurchCMS was built with a clear conviction: church software should be free, and it should work everywhere — regardless of language, currency, or infrastructure.
As demographics shift and congregations grow in new regions, the developers and partners closest to those communities are best placed to customise and deploy. This installation service is how we support that work — a clean, professional setup so you can focus on building what matters for your context.
