Funds go directly to the church

Project progress, visible to both congregations

Ministry-led. Accountability-built.

01 / The giving journey

A gift you can follow.
An impact you can share.

NuruPay connects giving, church stewardship, and public project updates in one transparent record.

01

Give your way

Choose a church and project. Planned card, bank, mobile, and licensed-partner stablecoin options make participation accessible. Fees are disclosed before giving.

02

The church receives it

Licensed payment partners send gifts to the church’s own account. Sponsors fund the technology, not a pool of donated money.

03

See the work move forward

Project dashboards bring together progress, photos, and treasurer-posted receipts. Church teams get reporting tools; district leaders get a rollup view.

02 / The sister church bridge

Across an ocean.
Alongside each other.

The planned pilot begins with Wesley AME Church in Houston and three South African AME sister churches, connecting communities in the 15th and 19th Episcopal Districts. Congregations support specific projects and follow the same updates.

Wesley AME’s Senior Pastor is Rev. John F. White II. Approved church photography, a pastoral message, and confirmed pilot details will be published when supplied.

Our roadmap

Phase 1 — Giving

AME pilot, digital gifts, and public project dashboards.

Phase 2 — Philanthropy

Impact Funds for scholarships, housing, feeding programs, and community projects. Public outcome reports. Coming soon.

Phase 3 — Expansion

More AME districts, then other denominations and faith-based nonprofits.

English first; isiZulu, Sesotho, Setswana, isiXhosa, and Afrikaans are planned.

03 / Sustainable stewardship

Clear fees. No surprises.

Small churches receive a free technology license during the pilot. A proposed 1.5–2.5% gift-processing fee is subject to partner confirmation; the actual fee must be disclosed on each giving page. Paid church-license tiers and sponsored sister-church partnerships will support platform operations.

Any plans displayed below are subject to confirmation for the NuruPay pilot. Final church pricing and payment-partner fees will be agreed before onboarding.
