The Masjid App

What The Masjid App does

The Masjid App is a private, vertically-focused SaaS company that provides mosque management software for the global Muslim community. Its platform unifies twelve modules — Donation Platform, Mobile App, Prayer Clock, Slideshow signage, Website Widgets, Website Hosting, Events, Donation Kiosk, Live Fundraiser, Handheld mPOS, Muslim Business Directory, and Volunteer Management — behind a single dashboard. The underlying technology is a serverless architecture built on CloudFront CDN with WordPress integration and Stripe Connect for PCI-compliant payments. The platform serves mosques and Islamic centers as the primary vertical, with secondary segments in campus Muslim Student Associations, Islamic schools, and Islamic community service organizations.

The company operates a hybrid go-to-market: product-led self-serve signup for smaller mosques, Calendly-driven inside sales for larger Islamic centers, and a consumer-facing mobile app on iOS and Google Play that drives top-of-funnel awareness by letting individual Muslims find and follow local masjids. Distribution is global, with explicit US and UK operations and GDPR-compliant positioning. Revenue is generated through a mix of $99/month mobile app subscriptions, website hosting subscriptions, 2.5–2.9% + 30¢ donation transaction fees (priced below PayPal, Stripe, and Square), hardware sales (kiosks, handheld mPOS), local business advertising widgets, and Muslim Business Directory sponsorships. The company emphasizes a privacy-first, "data divestment" narrative positioning itself against mainstream Western platforms. No funding rounds, headcount, management team, or financial disclosures are available in the source data.

Revenue model

1. Donation Transaction Fees: Percentage-based fees on mosque donations processed through the platform's website, app, kiosks, and handheld devices. Competitive rates lower than PayPal, Stripe, and Square. Donors often cover fees, maximizing mosque receipts.
2. Mobile App Subscription: Monthly subscription starting at $99/month for mosque mobile app deployment, including app store compliance, push notifications, event management, and integrated donations. No setup fees.
3. Website Hosting Subscription: Monthly subscription for premium WordPress hosting with enterprise security, CloudFront CDN, automatic updates, and mosque-specific support.
4. Donation Kiosk Hardware and Software: Sale or subscription of professionally-made kiosk hardware with integrated software. DIY components (tablet, reader, enclosure) available separately with limited support.
5. Handheld POS Device: Sale of wireless mobile point-of-sale devices for mosque fundraising. Transparent hardware pricing with no hidden monthly connectivity fees unlike Clover/Square.
6. Business Directory Sponsorships: Revenue from featured business listings and premium placement in the Muslim Business Directory. Mosques control pricing and earn from local business sponsorships.
7. Local Business Ads Widget: Revenue generation widget displaying rotating advertisements from local Muslim-owned businesses on mosque websites, with proceeds supporting mosque operations.

Broad incumbents

• Planning Center: Church management software suite covering check-ins, events, groups, giving, and volunteer scheduling — closely comparable module-based architecture serving religious organizations.
• Pushpay: Vertical SaaS giving and engagement platform for churches and faith-based organizations — same vertical SaaS model and revenue mechanics (transaction fees + subscriptions) but focused on Christian institutions rather than masjids.
• Subsplash: Faith-based engagement platform offering mobile apps, giving, events, and media for churches — comparable platform-plus-modules architecture and religious-organization target market.
• Breeze: Church management system offering people, giving, events, and volunteer modules — comparable SaaS-for-religious-org positioning with similar feature overlap.
• Tithe.ly: Church-focused giving and engagement platform with mobile giving, text-to-give, and event tools — directly comparable transaction-fee-driven revenue model and religious-organization customer base.
• DonorPerfect: Nonprofit donor management and fundraising software with CRM, donation forms, and event management — comparable donation-management functionality for non-profit religious organizations.
• Blackbaud: Enterprise nonprofit software provider covering fundraising, CRM, and financial management — broader portfolio but overlapping target customers (mosques operate as non-profits) and donation processing capabilities.

Direct peers

• Masjidbox: Direct mosque management software competitor offering similar modules for donations, events, prayer times, and community engagement targeting the same mosque customer base.

Emerging players

• Muslim Pro: Consumer-facing Muslim app providing prayer times, Athan, Qibla, and mosque directory — overlapping with The Masjid App's consumer mobile experience and directory but lacking admin-side management tools.
• Givebutter: Nonprofit fundraising platform with donation processing, events, and auctions — directly competes with the donation platform and event modules on transaction-fee-based pricing.
