Small churches deserve software too
By CAASYS Team · 9 May 2026

Most ChMS platforms are priced for 800‐seat auditoriums. We built CAASYS for the parish of 80, the house church of 30, and the assembly that meets in a hired hall.
Walk down any high street in the UK and the churches you pass on a Sunday are not the megachurches of YouTube. They are the parish of 80, the assembly of 50, the Pentecostal fellowship of 30 in a hired hall, the emerging house church of 12 around a dining table.
These churches do extraordinary pastoral work. They are also, mostly, priced out of the modern Church Management Software market.
## Why most ChMS platforms do not fit
- Pricing tiers start at £199/month or assume 500+ members.
- Setup takes weeks of consulting calls.
- They are designed around the rhythms of large American multi‐site churches — not a single Sunday service in Devon.
- Features you will never use take up most of the screen.
The result is that small churches default to a WhatsApp group, a paper register, and a spreadsheet that one person updates. Everyone knows it is not enough. Everyone keeps doing it because the alternative costs more than the rent on the hall.
## What we believe
CAASYS starts at £19 a month for churches up to 100 members. There is no setup fee. You can sign up on a Tuesday and run kiosk check‐in by Sunday. The kids’ room, the visitor pipeline, the bulk SMS, the GDPR opt‐outs, the activity log — all included.
If you outgrow it, brilliant. The next tier is £49. The one after that is £99. We charge nothing for our smallest plan to be everything most parishes will ever need.
We think church‐scale software should fit church‐scale budgets. Not the other way around.
