What One License Actually Includes

The question comes up in almost every first conversation, usually in some polite version of “so what’s the catch?” There isn’t one, but the pricing page can only say so much in the space of a few lines, so it’s worth spelling out properly.

A Lifted Prayers license costs $69 a year and covers one live church website. That’s the whole model. Not per submission, not per staff account, not a “starter” tier that quietly runs out of features the moment a congregation grows past some arbitrary number. A prayer request from a church of forty people and a prayer request from a church of four thousand cost the same to receive, moderate, and hold with care — so the pricing doesn’t pretend otherwise.

What the $69 actually buys is a year of updates and support. The plugin itself keeps working whether or not you renew — nothing phones home to disable your prayer wall the day the license lapses. What lapses is the safety net: security patches, WordPress-compatibility updates, bug fixes, and a real person to answer support requests. Most churches renew for the same reason they’d renew insurance on a building they still occupy — not because the walls fall down the day you stop paying, but because you’d rather not find out what happens when something breaks and no one’s answering.

The “one website” part deserves its own sentence, because it’s the detail most likely to trip someone up. It means one production site — the one your congregation actually visits. It doesn’t mean one attempt. You can install and test Lifted Prayers on a local environment or a staging copy of your site without that counting against the license; churches almost always want to see the moderation queue and the prayer wall working before they point real traffic at it, and that’s expected, not an edge case you have to ask permission for.

If it turns out not to be the right fit — the workflow doesn’t match how your team actually operates, or the visual style fights with your theme in a way we didn’t anticipate — there’s a 14-day money-back guarantee, no explanation required. We’d rather refund a license than have a plugin sitting half-configured on a church’s site doing nobody any good.

None of this is complicated, which is more or less the point. A prayer request is not a transaction, and we didn’t want the thing protecting it to feel like one either.
