Aligned Growth Plan Terms

Last updated: August 6, 2026

These Aligned Growth Plan Terms cover the Aligned Growth workspace: the modules your church can turn on, what they cost, the card you place on file when you activate, and how to cancel. They are in addition to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which continue to apply. Where those documents and these terms disagree about Aligned Growth billing, these terms control.

1. What Aligned Growth includes

Aligned Growth has 5 modules you can choose from: Manage, Website, App, Social, and Automations. You select the ones you want when you activate, you pay only for those, and you can change your selection later.

Research and SEO are part of the Websitemodule. They are complete products with their own workspace inside Aligned Growth — they are simply included with Website rather than sold on their own.

Aligned Giving is included with every Aligned Growth account and is never billed as a module. Gifts taken through Aligned Giving carry the usual payment processing rates, which are confirmed for your church during underwriting and are separate from these plan terms.

2. What it costs

Each module you select is $10 per month. All 5 together is $50per month, which is the most an Aligned Growth plan costs today. Once your church’s giving is up and running through Aligned, the price is $0 per month — section 3 says what that means, including how much giving it takes. All amounts are in U.S. dollars.

3. How $0 per month works

Aligned Growth is $0 per month once your church’s giving is genuinely running through Aligned. There is no coupon, no code and nothing to claim — it is simply the price for churches whose giving comes through us.

By that we mean your church’s ordinary, week-to-week giving arriving here. An account that has been opened but is not yet carrying your giving is not the same thing, and neither is a first test gift. How the gifts arrive does not matter — card, bank transfer, or cash and checks your team counts and records in Aligned all count the same way.

It is a question of scale as well as of presence. The $0 price is built around giving that is genuinely up and running at the level your church actually gives — so a church still taking its first handful of gifts may not be there yet, even if every one of them came through us, and neither is a church sending us a small share of its giving alongside another platform. We would rather say that plainly here than have it arrive as a surprise later.

We look at whether the giving is really running rather than at any one gift or any one week, and we do not publish a formula for it. What we promise instead is that you will not be surprised: no card is ever charged before we have emailed you about it. If your church is not there yet as the free window in section 5 closes, we write to the account owner — at least 7 days beforehand — with what would be charged, on what date, and what to do if that is not right. That email also holds the charge: we do not charge anything for at least 7 days after sending it, and if you reply in that time we hold it for as long as we are talking. If your plan changes in the meantime, so does the amount, and you get a fresh email about the new one before anything is charged. We would far rather talk than take money you were not expecting.

We look at this on an ongoing basis rather than once, in both directions. If your church starts giving through Aligned after being billed, the price goes back to $0 and any monthly charge stops. If your church moves its giving away from Aligned later, the per-module price in section 2 applies again — but not that day: you get a fresh window of 45 days first, with the same notice before it closes.

4. The card you place on file

Activating Aligned Growth requires a payment card. You enter it directly with our payment provider; your full card number is never sent to or stored on AlignedAI’s own systems. We keep only what is needed to show you which card is on file — the last four digits, the expiry, and the name on it.

We do not charge your card when you activate.It is stored so that, if the conditions in section 5 are ever met, your plan can carry on without your church losing a website, an app, or a Sunday’s check-ins over an unpaid bill.

Any charge appears on your statement as Aligned Church AI, and is receipted by email to the account owner.

5. Your free window

How long you have before the per-module price applies depends on the answer you gave when you activated, and either way it starts that day:

• Moving your giving to Aligned — 45 days. Opening a giving account usually takes a business day or two and your first Sunday through it may be a week or two after that, so the window is sized for the whole job. It is still worth starting early in it rather than late.
• Keeping the giving platform you have — 14 days. Your modules work from the hour you activate, so this is a free trial rather than time to get something set up.

If your church’s Aligned Giving account goes live during a 14-day trial, your window becomes the full 45days from the day you activated — you are never charged sooner for having moved your giving to us partway through.

Before that window closes we email the account owner — at least 7days ahead — saying what would be charged and when, and never later than the charge itself (section 3). If your church’s giving is still not running through Aligned at the level described in section 3 by the end of the window, we then charge the card on file $10 for each module you have selected, and the same amount each month afterwards on a monthly subscription. If your church later moves its giving to Aligned, that subscription is cancelled and the price returns to $0 per month.

If a payment is declined we email the account owner rather than leaving you to find it on a statement, and we do not start a new charge while it is unresolved. If you would rather stop altogether, canceling from your workspace ends every future charge straight away.

Your window does not move, and only ever gets longer. If you told us you were moving your giving to Aligned and then never open an account, or open one late, the per-module price still begins 45 days after you activate Aligned Growth — with the same notice beforehand.

Nothing is charged during your free window, whichever of the two it is, and no card is ever charged before the notice in section 3 has been sent. Cancel inside the window and no charge is ever made.

6. Changing modules, and canceling

You can add or remove modules yourself at any time, from Settings in your Aligned Growth workspace. A change takes effect immediately and sets what you are charged from your next monthly payment onwards; we do not pro-rate a month that has already been paid for. Removing a module takes it off your plan and off what you pay, and we may turn off access to a module that is no longer part of your plan.

You can cancel Aligned Growth yourself from the same place, at any time. Canceling stops all future charges straight away. Fees are billed monthly in advance and are not refundable except where the law requires otherwise, so the month you have already paid for is yours. If you would like to start again after canceling, email us. If you believe you have been charged in error, email us — we would much rather fix it than argue about it.

7. Price changes

We may change these prices with reasonable notice to the email address on your account. If a change is not acceptable to you, you can cancel before it takes effect.

8. Which version of these terms applies

When you activate Aligned Growth you tick a box accepting the version of these terms published that day, and we record which version that was. The version recorded for an acceptance today is 2026-08-06.3. If your church accepted an earlier version, that earlier version is the one recorded against your account and we do not quietly rewrite it to this one. Material changes are published here with a new date; continuing to use Aligned Growth after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms, and anything that changes what you pay reaches you as email first — the notice in section 3 for a first charge, and section 7 for a price change.
