Kibbudim & nedarim
Fill the weekly aliyah sheet, record pledges, bids and matanos, and post them to members' accounts in one step.
Software for the shul office
ShulPledger runs the business side of a shul: kibbudim and nedarim, dues and seats, payments through your own processor, statements, receipts, yahrzeits and the zmanim schedule. In English and Hebrew, for the gabbai, the treasurer and every member.
Moving from ShulCloud or spreadsheets? We bring your members, balances and history with you.

What it does
One system instead of a spreadsheet, a binder and a separate donation page.
Fill the weekly aliyah sheet, record pledges, bids and matanos, and post them to members' accounts in one step.
Cards, ACH and charity cards through your processor. Members pay online; the office charges cards or records checks, cash and Zelle.
Monthly statements and year-end receipts on your letterhead, with your EIN and the IRS goods-and-services wording.
Times for your location, a schedule built from rules ("Mincha 10 minutes before shkiah"), published to members and printable.
Members see their balance and history, pay by saved card, set up recurring payments and print their own receipts.
A seating chart of your actual room, membership dues, and yahrzeit reminders on the right Hebrew date.
Payments
Keep the merchant account you already have, or connect several. Each fund can deposit to its own bank account, so building-fund money never lands in the operating account.
No goods or services were provided in exchange for these contributions, other than intangible religious benefits. EIN on every receipt.
For the treasurer
Every member has an account number, a running ledger and a statement. Year-end receipts follow the standard IRS layout, including the value of dinner tickets and other goods, and members can open and print their own.
Switching over
Most shuls switch between Yamim Noraim and the end of the year. Here is how it goes.
Download your members, open balances, payment history and yahrzeits from your current system or spreadsheet.
ShulPledger matches the columns and shows every row before anything is saved. Mistakes are listed with the reason.
Connect your processor, invite your gabbai and treasurer, and send members their sign-in link.
