So you run a business and want to join ChristianOwnedBusiness.com? Great! Here’s how our application and certification process works.
- Complete the application form. You’ll provide basic details about your business—name, contact information, address, category, description and service area. You can also include links to your Yelp, Google or Facebook review pages to help customers learn more about your reputation.
- Affirm your faith and ethics. Our form asks you to proclaim that Jesus is Lord, confirm active involvement in a local church and agree to our Code of Ethics. We base our ethical standards on Scripture and well‑established best practices for building trust.
- Choose a membership level. Standard membership costs US$80 per year and includes a full profile, trust badge and annual renewal. You can also select a free basic listing or an upgraded sponsor membership (similar to veteran‑owned directories that offer enhanced listings at higher price points).
- Wait for approval. After you submit your application, our team manually reviews each entry. We may reach out to your church or references to verify your statements. Once approved, you’ll receive an invoice and a payment link via email.
- Publish and promote your profile. After payment, your listing goes live. You’ll gain access to your Member Dashboard where you can update your profile, download your badge and monitor leads.
If you have questions about the application process or membership options, please contact our support team. We look forward to partnering with you to shine Christ’s light through your business!
