People & Households
Members, visitors, families, relationships, titles, member types, group rosters — with private files, photos and a household-aware notification model.
People, true fund accounting, online giving, events, forms, buildings, payroll, approvals and reports — all in one place. Arketar replaces a spreadsheet jungle with a clean, modern operating system designed for the way churches and ministries actually work.
Most software solves one slice and leaves the rest on spreadsheets. Arketar is built as one integrated platform — every contribution, every event, every pledge and every paycheck flows through the same ledger, the same people graph, and the same approval engine.
Members, visitors, families, relationships, titles, member types, group rosters — with private files, photos and a household-aware notification model.
Multi-fund chart of accounts with restriction lifecycle, sub-ledgers, journal batches, AP / AR / GL, and cash or accrual basis — not "donation tracking with tags".
Card and bank giving via Stripe and SimpleFin, recurring schedules, pledges with auto-pay, contribution statements and one-click deposit posting.
Event planner with sessions and tasks, native form designer, paid registrations, QR check-ins, attendee profiles and full event accounting.
Buildings, room reservations, asset register with depreciation and impairment, payroll with pay components and GL mapping, plus approval workflows for everything.
Row-level scoping, fine-grained role permissions, encrypted credentials, audit trails and full multi-tenant isolation — safe for diocesan and network-wide deployments.
Track members, visitors and entire households. Define real relationships — spouses, parents, guardians, siblings, neighbors — and use them everywhere from notifications to giving statements. Roles and titles let you describe leadership in the language your ministry already uses.
assets/screens/people.pngTrack every dollar against its purpose. Restricted, temporarily-restricted and unrestricted funds are first-class citizens, with a lifecycle that follows the donor's intent — from gift to ledger to release.
assets/screens/accounting.pngMembers give online by card or directly from their bank. Pledges schedule themselves. Deposits flow through a single posting that updates the giver, the fund, the GL and the contribution statement at once.
assets/screens/giving.pngA complete event lifecycle — calendar, sessions, tasks, registrations, payments and check-ins. The native form designer lets non-developers build branded forms with cover images, custom fields, conditional logic and fee collection.
assets/screens/events.pngReserve rooms, depreciate assets, run payroll and route every approval — without leaving the platform. Workflows let you decide who signs off on a bill, a reimbursement or a journal entry, and every step is captured in the audit trail.
assets/screens/ops.pngEvery record is row-scoped to the tenant that owns it. Role-based access is fine-grained, encrypted credentials live in vaults, and a full audit trail follows every approval, edit and posting. Diocesan, network and multi-campus deployments are first-class.
assets/screens/security.pngA high-level look at what's inside. Each module is purpose-built, integrated with the rest, and ready on day one.
