T3Books Software Review

Here’s why I use T3Books for church accounting and giving, and why I recommend it to my church bookkeeping clients.

Financial systems quietly shape how confidently a church can lead, plan, and steward resources.

When fund balances are unclear or reporting takes too much time, leaders often end up reacting instead of planning. Over time, that friction creates unnecessary stress for pastors, finance teams, and boards alike. 

If improved clarity, cleaner fund accounting, and greater confidence in reporting are priorities for your church, T3Books could be just what you are looking for. Let's take a look a how this fund accounting software may work for your organization.

Simple and Accurate Software Made for Churches

Two things many small churches and nonprofits have in common is volunteer help and frequent turnover, so it is imperative to have an accounting system set up that is simple to learn and use! Even if you have paid staff who have been with you forever, simple and efficient is the key when it comes to your accounting.

T3 was built especially for small to medium-sized nonprofits and churches. It's a true fund accounting software that offers the essential features you need and expect without the bulk (and expense) of what you don't.

T3Books is a web-based software, so it is simple to get started. A web-based software also gives you the ease of working on any device and sharing remote access with other team members.

A Church-Specific Alternative To Quickbooks

If you have ever tried to use a business software like Quickbooks for your church or nonprofit, you'll quickly find that it requires clunky workarounds to get an imitation of fund accounting. Or maybe you've been using another fund accounting software but it feels too big or expensive for the core features you need.

With T3Books, you get unlimited funds without workarounds, multi-fund transactions, and audit trails for easy compliance and accountability. You can easily run reports that are clear and accessible to gain insights while being confident that everything is in order. 

T3Books was built by a CPA who also has more than a decade of serving ministries and nonprofit organizations across the country who has seen firsthand both the potential and the pain points of traditional accounting support for mission-driven organizations. Too often, churches and nonprofits were left with complex software, inconsistent bookkeeping, or advisors who didn’t understand the unique world of fund accounting.

Free Support

There is an extensive library of training and support materials provided by the experienced T3Books team that will walk you through the software, answer your questions, and even show you some additional features and functions that can help your organization. Plus, you can always reach out for one-on-one assistance, and all support is free for customers!
