Comparing Pushpay
vs. Subsplash

Which Software Is Better For Your Church?
Pushpay is the Best Subsplash Alternative

Subsplash provides digital church tools that can help you to reach your congregation, but they fall short of truly engaging your members. Only Pushpay’s complete suite of digital church solutions—Giving, Apps, and Church Management Software—can claim to be the final word in developing meaningful, genuine connections with your church family.

How is Pushpay different from Subsplash?

Our platform was built on the belief that mission-based organizations need great software specifically designed to advance their ministries. That vision has driven our team to develop the industry-leading technology churches depend on to manage their teams, facilitate secure giving, engage their congregations—and ensure the success of their mission.

If you’re currently using, or considering adopting, the Subsplash platform for your church, let us show you why Pushpay may be the better option.

Designed to Encourage Further Connection with Your Ministry

Your connection to your congregation shouldn’t end when the service does. Pushpay is the only Subsplash alternative with features designed with your congregation’s complete engagement journey in mind:

  • The App Connect feature to prompt congregants to download your custom app.
  • Offline Conversion encourages donors who make physical gifts to move online, and leverage our Recurring Giving recommendations to fuel ongoing generosity.
  • A new visitor’s next steps can be guided through the Process Queues feature, and deepen member engagement with custom paths you design.

Dynamic and Engaging Mobile Apps

Pushpay’s Apps offer the most powerful, rich, and customizable features for churches:

  • Only Pushpay offers a mobile app specifically designed to support leaders. Our LEAD App allows you to access member profiles, volunteer schedules, worship plans, and more on the go.
  • Dynamic home screens keep the most relevant events and media in front of each member, without the need for manual updates.
  • Suggested Content encourages your congregation to continue their learning and engagement journey with your church by promoting content related to what they’re already consuming.
  • As opposed to Subsplash, Pushpay Apps load without a data or Wi-Fi connection, ensuring your congregants always have the ability to engage with your content.
  • Our app nudges users to log in and customize their experience, and personalize what content they see; Subsplash requires users to dig to find that functionality.

Giving Tools Proven To Increase Generosity

Pushpay’s Giving solution isn’t just simple and intuitive—it was developed to boost donations and encourage your members along their giving journey:

  • Only Pushpay gives churches the power of Everygift™, a proprietary system of features that save failed payments and drive future donations—to the tune of over $213 million in 2022 alone.
  • Our tools were intentionally designed to increase generosity. On average, churches that make full use of Pushpay’s Giving solution see a 12% increase in donations and a 24% boost in recurring givers. What’s more, churches using both our ChMS and Giving Solutions enjoy an average giving increase twenty-one times larger than the subscription cost.
  • Our Donor Development Dashboard creates an easily digestible overview of your givers’ generosity. By identifying new donors, second-time givers, new recurring givers, as well as lapsed and at-risk donors, you’ll have the insights necessary to nurture a congregant’s donor journey.
  • Only Pushpay’s giving platform offers custom Thank You notes, allowing you to tailor your messages of gratitude to fit your church.
  • Our platform allows you to choose between animations to acknowledge each gift from your congregants, as yet another (adorable!) way to say thank you.

Testimonials

Tiffany Meaney
Bellevue Presbyterian Church
"We recently launched a one-time giving campaign to raise funds for refugees forced from their homes in the Congo due to violence in that area. Our goal was $30k, we raised over $400k! This never could have happened without Pushpay!"
Jennifer Ford
Hosanna! Church
"Our whole experience with Pushpay has required such minimal effort on our part. That translated into such a great giving experience on Easter and helped us raise more than $200,000 for four great organizations."
Sarah Jones
First Baptist Church of Reeltown
"Pushpay has been the single greatest avenue of connection between the congregation and the church as a whole. To say that we’ve been blessed through your company is an understatement."
