What It Is

Hubb is Church Management Software designed for church organizations, combining website building, website hosting, a Church App, and church management features. It is not a general-purpose CRM; instead, it is built around church operations, covering use cases such as official website content, sermon audio and video, newsletters, online giving, event bookings, member databases, communications, people management, and finance.

Core Features and Collaboration

The Website and App plans include 5 editors, hosting, calendars, online giving, event bookings, sermons, podcasts, and newsletter features. The higher-tier Church Management + Website + App plans add Admin, Communications, People Management, and Finance, and manage people data through Members and Contacts. Members can log in and use the relevant management and communication features; Contacts are also stored in the database, but login access is disabled. The available information does not disclose granular role permissions, approval workflows, third-party integrations, or API capabilities.

Pricing and Fees

Hubb’s pricing is relatively transparent, with all prices billed monthly and including VAT. Website only costs £19/month, while Website + App costs £29/month. The full church management packages range from Starter at £35/month to Plan 3 at £85/month, tiered by member and contact allowances. If you exceed the allowance, you only pay for the additional people rather than having to upgrade directly to a higher plan. A payment processing account costs an additional £3/month. Online giving and event bookings are charged at 2.2% + 20p per transaction, while shop sales are charged at 2.5% + 25p per transaction. Media storage and transfer each include a 100GB fair use allowance, with overages charged separately; SMS is also billed per message.

Pros and Cons

The main advantage is its vertically focused feature set, making it suitable for churches that want to manage their website, app, donations, events, and members within a single system. The pricing structure is clear, and costs remain relatively controllable as membership grows. The downsides are that the available information does not mention a free plan or trial, security and compliance details, backups, APIs, or external integrations. Payment processing and media usage can also generate additional costs, so budget planning should take actual transaction volume and audio/video traffic into account.

Who It’s For and Access from China

Hubb is best suited to churches, congregations, and affiliated community centers in the UK or organizations comfortable with GBP billing that need integrated digital operations. Access from mainland China is unknown, and payments appear to primarily rely on the Hubb Processing solution; there is no clear indication of compatibility with local Chinese payment methods. If operating in China, you may need to evaluate network accessibility, cross-border payments, compliance requirements, and local alternatives such as WeCom or DingTalk combined with website, event, and payment tools.
