The pricing page publishes Foundation at $50 a month for church plants and small churches, with no onboarding cost and a self-serve migration dashboard. But "Get started on foundation" links to /bookdemo, the same sales form as Growth and Enterprise. Overflow is hiring a Growth PM to let churches sign up "without a salesperson holding their hand", and a Growth engineer for self-onboarding and checkout. Today the smallest churches still have to book a 30-minute call to start, while Tithely offers a free trial and Planning Center a sign-up button.

Why it works
Point the Foundation button at a short self-serve signup: church name, EIN, admin, bank account and plan, then straight into the migration dashboard and a "first gift" checklist. Keep a "talk to someone" link on every step, and route churches above a giving-volume threshold to an AE. Measure signup-to-first-gift time and compare with the demo path.
Small churches decide fast and often have no staff for a sales cycle. A path that works on a Tuesday night turns the published $50 price into signups, and frees AEs for Growth and Enterprise deals.

Card rates step down by volume with "No negotiations, no requests needed", and a "See your rate" calculator estimates the blended rate.Source
