What you get

Nine modules, one record for every person

Change someone's address once and it is right everywhere. Every module hangs off the same person record, so nothing has to be reconciled at the end of the month.

Membership

Households, contact details, roles, attendance and the notes that explain who someone actually is. The record everything else attaches to.

Giving

Coming soon

Contributions attached to the giver, annual statements, and pledge tracking. In active development. Churches on the platform get it at no additional cost when it ships.

Groups

Small groups, ministries and teams, with leaders who can see their own roster without being handed the keys to everything else.

Forms & events

Sign-ups, registrations, volunteer interest and event responses, landing on the person record instead of in a spreadsheet someone forwards around.

Pastoral care

Visits, calls and prayer requests in a queue ordered by how long someone has waited. Notes are encrypted at rest and visible only to the roles you name.

Outreach

First-time guests, follow-up steps and who owns each one, so a visitor does not quietly fall off the end of a Sunday.

Resources

A shared library for the files your staff and volunteers keep asking for: forms, policies, media, service plans.

Communications

Email and text to a group, a ministry, or everyone who missed the last two Sundays, sent from the same list you already maintain.

Reports

Attendance trends, group health and membership change, plus a plain export of any list you build. Numbers for the board meeting without a rebuild.

Monday morning

It opens on what needs a decision

Not an app grid. The home screen is the short list of things that will go wrong if nobody touches them this week, and the number of days each has been sitting.

Pricing

One platform fee. Real support when you want it. Nothing hidden.

The Fold is built and supported by Rampart Business Solutions, not a faceless vendor. Every church gets the full platform from day one, and no feature is ever locked behind a higher tier.

Platform
$69 per month

Everything your church needs to run day to day, in one place.

  • Membership, groups, forms and events
  • Pastoral care, with confidential notes encrypted at rest
  • Outreach tracking, resource library, communications
  • Reports and exports
  • Two-factor authentication for staff accounts
  • Standard email support, answered within one business day
  • Giving, included at no extra cost when it ships

No per-member fees. No contracts. Cancel anytime.

Setup
$750 one time, from

Getting started right matters more than getting started fast.

  • Migrating your existing member records
  • An initial branding pass, so the platform looks like your church and not a template
  • Training for whoever will use it day to day

Churches moving off another system with more complex data may cost more. We tell you the number after a short call, before you commit to anything.

Managed
$199 per month, added

For churches that want an ongoing design and development partner, not just a support ticket.

  • Priority support with a direct line to Rampart
  • Ongoing design and development time each month, for new pages, report formats and workflow changes
  • A quarterly check-in to review what is working and what to build next

Add it when you need it. Drop it when you don't.

What isn't on this page

The two charges we are never going to add

No percentage of your giving

When giving ships, payment processing will run through Stripe at Stripe's standard rate. You will see exactly what you are paying and why, rather than a markup buried inside a bigger number. Rampart does not take a cut of what your congregation gives.

No charge per member

A church of 60 and a church of 600 pay the same platform fee. Growing your roll should not raise your software bill, and it should never be the reason someone hesitates to add a family to the system.

Before you sign up

Questions worth asking us

When does giving arrive, and what happens to my current process?
Giving is in active development and is not live yet. Keep using whatever you use today. When it ships, it is included in the $69 platform fee with no price change, and we will help you move your history over as part of the release rather than as a new project.
What does setup actually involve?
A short call first, so we can look at what you have. Then we migrate your member records, apply your church's colors, logo and wording so the platform does not look like a template, and train the people who will use it. Most churches are running in a single session. If your data is coming out of another system and is messier than it looks, we tell you the revised number before you commit, not after.
Who can see pastoral notes?
Only the roles you name. Pastoral notes are encrypted at rest and sit behind their own permission, separate from general membership access. A group leader can see their own roster without ever seeing care notes, and staff accounts use two-factor authentication.
What happens to our data if we leave?
You export it in full, whenever you ask, including while you are still a customer. There is no exit fee and no notice period on the platform fee. We would rather you stay because the tool is worth it than because leaving is painful.
Do we need the Managed plan?
Most churches do not, at least not at first. Managed is for churches that want ongoing design and development time each month rather than occasional support. Start on Platform, and add Managed later if you find yourself wanting changes faster than standard support delivers them.
Who is Rampart?
Rampart Business Solutions is a marketing, communications and technology firm in Montgomery, Alabama, working with small businesses, nonprofits and churches. The Fold is our own product. The same team that designs and builds it answers the phone when you call.

Talk to us before you commit

We will walk through what setup involves for your specific situation, what your first month looks like, and whether Managed makes any sense for where your church is right now.
