SoapBox in Nigeria

Members without a smartphone

Some of your members have a basic phone. No smartphone, no apps, no internet. SoapBox has a place for them too.

Add them to your People list with a name and a mobile number. They need no app and no account.
To reach them by SMS, export your People list with phone numbers from the web app or Android, and send through your church's own SMS provider.

Your Bible, free

The Bible reader has the Bible in Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa, and Scripture in Ibibio, free, with many English translations.

For your church

Your church starts free, for up to a hundred members. Share your invite code on WhatsApp. Visitors who check in at the door land in Visitor Follow-up, and you can publish a free web page for your church.

Light on data

Data costs money. Turn on Data-Light Mode, and photos inside posts wait until you tap them: always on Android and the web app, and on iPhone whenever you're on mobile data. Bible chapters you've already opened stay readable on your phone, even offline.

Growing?

If your church outgrows the free plan, paid plans are discounted for churches in Nigeria.
