Church Partnership Programme

Your singles.
Their love story.

We create the atmosphere. You bring the magic.

Give your Christian singles a safe, grace-filled path to marriage. Every member who joins through your community contributes directly to your ministry fund, at no cost to your church, ever.

Why Partner with MatchPods

Your singles deserve more than Sunday small talk.

Church singles groups are limited by geography, awkwardness, and size. MatchPods gives your congregation a structured, trustworthy, faith-rooted path to marriage, without you having to run it.

Values-first matching

SoulMatch prioritises faith, values, and attachment style above appearance. Your members meet people who already share a worldview, something no mainstream app offers.

Ministry fund income

You earn £10 for every church member who registers. Host-tier churches earn more. Income for your ministry, generated by something you already care about, your people finding love.

Zero workload for you

We provide a community code, an onboarding pack, and a dedicated Coordinator who handles everything. Your role is to share the code and the story. We do the rest.

How the Partnership Works

Simple. Structured. Rewarding.

Share your community code

Your members use your code at registration to receive £5 off their cohort fee. The code links their registration to your church, ensuring you earn your commission automatically.

“This is needed. Our young adults struggle to meet compatible people in a way that feels safe and aligned with our values. MatchPods understands that, and the structure means we can endorse it from the front of church with full confidence.”

Why This Works for Your Ministry

You already care about your singles. We help you do something about it.

Church leaders told us in research interviews that their singles ministry suffers from three things: small pool sizes, awkward social formats, and lack of time to run something structured. MatchPods solves all three, from outside the church.

  • No cost, no liability, no setup work for your team
  • Faith and values at the core of every match, not a filter
  • GDPR compliant, safeguarding policies in place, verified users only
  • Ministry income that grows as your community grows
  • Exit any time, no long-term commitment required

Common Questions

For pastors and ministry leads.

Does my church endorse MatchPods officially?
Endorsement-tier churches signal support informally through pastoral recommendation and sharing the code with their congregation. Affiliate and Host tier partnerships include a written letter of intent, which is how our three confirmed pre-launch partners have formalised their relationship with MatchPods.
Are there any safeguarding concerns I should know about?
MatchPods operates with verified accounts only, age verification (18+), a published safeguarding policy, and all church partnership agreements include safeguarding clauses. We follow CCPAS guidance for faith community contexts and are GDPR registered on incorporation.
What if my members have a bad experience?
MatchPods has a results-based refund policy. If sessions don't run as promised, participants receive a full refund. Facilitator SOPs cover seven operational scenarios and all session quality is rated by participants after every Pod.
Can we exit the partnership if we change our mind?
Yes. There is no minimum commitment period. You can exit at any time by notifying us in writing. Any earned commission owed at that point will be paid in the next quarterly cycle.
