Tithely

Founded in 2013 by a pastor-turned-entrepreneur, Tithely set out to modernize church giving and administration with mobile donations, text giving, websites, messaging, and full church management tools. While it speaks the language of ministry, Tithely operates as a commercial SaaS company, funding growth through transaction fees and premium service bundles. Churches should be mindful that adopting Tithely’s full ecosystem can create data lock‑in — where donor records, giving histories, and integrated tools are tied to their platform, making migration to another provider more complex and potentially costly.
