ChurchTrac: The Simple Church Accounting Software

Whoever manages your church's money arguably has a greater influence on your church's future than anyone else.

However, accounting can be time-consuming, especially for ministers who are not professionally trained accountants.

Are you one of those ministry leaders? I've got good news!

You're why we designed ChurchTrac Accounting to be intuitive and simple for anyone to use. Here are 7 reasons why churches love our all-in-one software.

1. Single-Entry Accounting: What Most Churches Need

Want to know something funny? Most churches only need a single-entry accounting system, yet most church accounting programs are double-entry programs!

The reason is that Quickbooks is a double-entry system. And because QB is the industry standard, every other program tries to copy them.

At ChurchTrac, we tailored our Accounting feature to meet the needs of churches. That way, ANYONE can manage the church's funds, no matter your level of expertise. Like one of our pastors once said...

"It's church accounting for more than just your treasurer!"

Most churches need single-entry

2. Fund-Based Accounting Designed for Churches

In addition to single-entry, fund-based accounting is the ideal accounting system for most churches.

Your church's finances likely revolve around ministry funds. ChurchTrac Accounting gives you an intuitive way to manage your funds.

It's as easy as updating transactions (or syncing transactions with your bank). Our system will show you what remains in your funds in real time.

3. Simple Church Accounting Features

Most accounting programs have a STEEP learning curve. But not ChurchTrac!

Learning the program is effortless. That's because all the features in ChurchTrac Accounting are very straightforward. You don't need a degree in accounting to manage your categories or create powerful automations that will save you tons of time.

4. Seamless Tithes and Online Giving

Adding your tithes and offerings to your church's financials takes just a few clicks of the mouse.

And if you use ChurchTrac's online giving platform, those donations are automatically reported to your ChurchTrac account. How easy is that?

Our system instantly updates your church funds and the budget so you know how much money your ministries have at all times.

5. Manage the Church Budget (Minus the Stress)

The coolest part of creating budgets in ChurchTrac is that half the work is done for you.

You don't have to create the line items of your budget because we use the Categories to do that for you. You just have to select which Categories to include, then assign a dollar amount.

And because your other leaders can use the software, you can all collaborate and create the budget together.
