For churches and ministries
Sunday reminders, tithe follow-ups, prayer chain alerts and event invites. Reach every member on MTN and Airtel — not just the ones on WhatsApp.
Used by parishes, fellowships and ministries across Kampala, Wakiso, Mukono and Western Uganda.
WhatsApp groups miss the members on feature phones, and email gets ignored. SMS reaches every congregant in your contact list, with delivery proof.
Schedule Saturday-night reminders that drop in members' inboxes Sunday morning.
Personalize: include the member's first name, cell group leader or seat-zone.
Send midweek service, choir-practice and women's-fellowship invitations from saved groups.
Refunds on failed sends — no charge for messages that don't reach the recipient.
Gently remind members of standing pledges or campaign giving without awkward phone calls.
Send pledge reminders to specific donor groups.
Confirm received offerings the same week to build trust.
Share campaign progress (e.g. building fund) to keep momentum.
When someone is sick, bereaved or celebrating, the prayer chain can mobilize in minutes — not days.
Send to a dedicated prayer-warriors group in under 30 seconds.
Use SMS for sensitive notes that don't belong in a public WhatsApp.
Track which members never opened the announcements list so leadership can reach out personally.
