All-in-one

More time for

your mission

Helping you spend less time on operations, so you can

focus more time on your mission and community.

Hubb is a church website, mobile app,

admin system, communications suite

and people manager, all in one, and

it costs from less than a cup of coffee

per day.

We created Hubb to assist churches of all sizes

to look good online, engage with people better,

and to help them get organised and stay

organised.

Hubb will help you to spend less time and

effort on operations, so you can focus

more time on your mission and community,

discipling your members and reaching those

who don’t yet know Jesus.

Your church leaders, staff and volunteers can

relax knowing there is a hub where it’s easy to

see what’s going on and when. This avoids all

the uncertainty and confusion that can occur

when your systems and processes are held in

different places by different people, and done

in different ways.

Hubb brings it all together in an intuitive

system that is specifically built for churches.

We believe that every church should have

access to the tools they need for growth.

That’s why there is no extra cost to use

more of our features. Small churches get

the same features as large churches and

our heart is to help those smaller churches

grow their membership and reach more of

their community, as well as supporting larger

churches to keep organised and focus more on

their mission.

It’s important to know that Hubb is continually

improving with updates to the system, so

please stay engaged with us and follow us

to learn more about how we can help your

church.

Hubb features

Make it your own

Whichever template you choose, it’s easy to add and

edit pages with your own text and images.

With our styling service, we can adapt any template

with your colours and fonts to match your logo and

brand, so your website will look unique to your church.

Engaging content

Hubb websites come with built-in features to

display up-to-date information such as events,

sermons, latest news and notice sheets.

These features are also displayed in the app to

help you connect better with your members.

If you need a hand, we have video training guides

that take you through the whole process of

personalising the website for your church. And if

Church websites

No technical know-how required

Hubb makes it easy for you and your team to

manage the content on your website without the

need for a web expert.

Choose one of our ready-made templates to get up

and running quickly, or ask our design team to create

something new. Then you can edit the text, change

the images and add new pages at any time.

Manage your church website with our easy

to use content management system (CMS).

Templates for churches

We have a selection of templates designed

specifically for churches. All of our templates

are ‘responsive’ so they look great on desktop

computers and mobile devices.

We put a lot of thought into the content, design

and structure of the templates we build. We

are churchgoers ourselves, so we understand

the need for a church website to be strategic in

targeting relevant information to both visitors

and church members.

All templates come FREE with a Hubb.church

subscription and include free styling of fonts and

colours to make the website personal to your

church.

Some templates provide more sections and

content in their layout than others. If you would

like to mix and match sections from different

templates to create a unique layout for your

church, or you would like a quote for a bespoke

website design, please get in touch.

Church app

Your church app will enable you to communicate and engage

more effectively with your church members and wider contacts.

Personalised styling for your church

The app comes with your church name, logo and

brand colours. Using the latest app technology, it is

available on Apple, Android, PC, Mac and Chrome

OS. Anyone can install your app at the tap of a

button directly from your website, but only those

who have login access will be able to see the

member-only content.

Integrated with the content on your

Hubb website

Save once, update everywhere. It’s so easy for your

admins. There is no need to update two systems

– the Hubb website and app are connected so you

only have to update your content in one place.

Boost serving

Hubb provides a personal serving view for members.

When your members install your app, they can

automated rota reminder email to help them keep

track of their serving schedule.

your members up to date with information about

events, news, notice sheets and the latest sermons.

don’t even need to be in the church office!

Event ticketing

Take free and paid event bookings. It’s easy to

set up simple ticketing for events like a men’s

breakfast or a more complex conference where

you want to capture more data for delegates, like

their seminar choices or meal options.

Your members’ data is remembered for super

quick ticket booking when logged in. Couple that

with our app, and you can offer your members a

swift and easy way to book.

All of the ticket data can be viewed in each

person’s profile and passed through our secure

payment system.

Church calendar

Simple to manage and perfect for

busy churches. You can add a single

or repeating series of events and

link them to online maps so that

people will know what’s on, when

and where.

control who can see which events,

so you can choose to publish your

events to the public, just church

members, or only members of

specific groups within your church.

Hubb makes bookings easy, giving you control of

your rooms and equipment with a bird’s-eye view of

who’s using what, where and when.

You can add your resources and manage people’s

registers and any shared resources or safeguarding

policies. Communicate effectively with parents by

email and SMS.

Custom fields

You can personalise your database. If you need to

that’s no problem, you can add custom fields.

These fields can be a variety of data types. It’s simple

and straightforward to build reports, save them and

email people based on the report results.

Manage church

groups

Organise your members and contacts

into the groups they are involved in.

This can be small groups, youth

place, and restrict access to group

members only. Perfect for PCC minutes,

worship team resources or even policies

for children’s ministry workers.

Child check-in

Child check-in is a flexible system that allows you

to safely check your children into their groups. For

example, you can set up a laptop or iPad as a kiosk

for registration and use a printer to print a label for

the child and a pick-up code for the parent.

We have put child protection at the heart of this

feature and integrated SMS text messaging to alert

parents if there is an issue with their child. There

is an incident log for leaders and labels to show

medical or allergy information.

Church finance

Take online donations, import or enter your offline donations, and claim

Gift Aid on everything with our direct HMRC integration. All payments

are passed through our secure payment system for your peace of mind.

Online giving

With Hubb, you can take online

donations with extremely low

fees. There are no other charges

to pay to anyone else.

The giving widget is built to

work well and look good on

all mobile, tablet and desktop

devices. We’ve made it easy for

your supporters to give via one

simple page.

The giving widget can be

embedded on your website,

so your members are not

redirected to a third party page.

Manage offline giving

You can import your bank statement data, or data

from your accounts package, to create online profiles

for your supporters who donate by Standing Order

or BACS.

Also, quickly enter any giving data manually using

our ‘quick add’ feature. This is great for processing

many small gifts that are not split into detail on your

bank statement, like cheques and cash. This also

creates a giving profile for your supporters.

There is no charge for entering and

managing offline giving data.

Fully integrated

All of the giving data can be viewed in each

person’s profile so you get a rich history of

their giving.

With all the data in one place, there is no need to

use another system for your giving management.

Members can login to view and amend their

donations.

Claim Gift Aid

You can claim all of your Gift Aid back for all online

and imported/entered offline donations. You can

do this as often as you like to make sure you keep

receiving your Gift Aid throughout the year.

Missed a claim? No problem, we have a catch up

button so you never miss a penny.

There is no charge for making a Gift Aid claim, and

we do not charge fees on the Gift Aid portion of the

transaction like some other providers.

CLAIM BACK

New features

We are very excited to share with you the

launch of our brand new event Planner

feature that will allow you and your

teams to create bespoke service plans.

A quick glance and you will able to see the entire

running order of your service or event and also who

is serving on which rota and when.

The Planner timeline runs in real time during the

event with a time marker showing clearly, minute

by minute, where you are in the running order.

The Planner timeline can be displayed on any

screen. Your media team can view it on a large

monitor, and anyone on the serving team can

access the mobile view in your church app.

You can create your own unique Planner templates

for different services and events, a feature

designed to save you time.

Create a template for your Sunday services and

create another template for your seasonal or special

events. You can have as many templates as you

need without having to start from scratch

every time.

As one of the most requested features from

churches, we believe this is going to be

a real asset in your planning.

Organise your services and keep

everyone on the same page.
