Data export
Your data is yours. Ministrium never holds it hostage. You can export the whole CRM anytime, on any plan.
Export members and prospects
- CRM → Export.
- Pick scope: whole church, one campus, or one segment.
- Pick columns (default: all).
- Pick format: CSV or Excel (.xlsx).
- Confirm.
Small exports (<5,000 rows) download immediately. Large ones get an email when ready (typically <2 minutes).
Export attendance history
Attendance → Reports → Export. One row per (member, date, campus, event).
Export donations
Donations → Export. CSV or Excel with:
- Internal donation ID
- Donor
- Amount, currency
- Date
- Method (card, ACH, cash)
- Originating campus
- Stripe charge ID (for reconciliation)
Export everything (full snapshot)
For migration to another tool or your own backup:
- Settings → Data → Export everything.
- You receive an email with a link to a ZIP file.
- The ZIP contains CSVs of: members, families, attendance, donations, communications, audit log.
- Link valid 7 days.
The export includes emails, phones, birthdates, addresses, minors’ medical info. It’s sensitive. Treat it with the same care Ministrium does: encrypted disks, don’t email it, delete when you’re done.
Scheduled export (Enterprise)
EnterpriseEnterprise can schedule weekly or monthly exports to your own S3 or Google Cloud Storage bucket. See Resources → Migration.

Data subject right (GDPR/LGPD)
If a member requests their personal information, export only their data:
- CRM → [Member] → Actions → Export my data.
- A PDF + JSON is generated with everything the church has on that person.
- Hand to the data subject.
