StewardTrack and Planning Center both help churches manage members, groups, events, and giving. Planning Center is a long-established, modular platform built in Carlsbad, California, with Giving available in the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. StewardTrack is built in the Philippines for churches worldwide, prices plans in PHP, and processes online gifts through Xendit — so GCash, Maya, QR Ph, bank transfer, and card giving are available without a separate payment processor.

Yes. StewardTrack is built in the Philippines but is designed for churches worldwide. The Xendit integration is most beneficial to churches collecting in PHP; churches in other regions can still use StewardTrack for membership, events, and finance, and we continue to expand payment options.
