15 years for Austin — and about to come home.
Your Financial Command Center — refreshed every month.
Every month, your leadership opens one link and sees exactly where the money is. No spreadsheets to decode, no waiting on a report. This is the live view you'll get, built from your own books.
Every month, this dashboard answers — instantly:
How much cash do we have, and which way is it trending toward move-in?
Are we on plan? Income vs. expense, every month, no surprises.
Where is the money going — by ministry, staffing, and facilities?
How is giving, and how is FUEL 2026 tracking against the goal?
Where do our funds stand — operating, building, restricted, and the LLC?
What needs a decision — flagged for the board before it becomes a problem.
Divided by control — so the board can trust it.
The cleanest way to divide the work isn't by task — it's by control. Turnkey handles record-keeping, processing, reporting, and compliance. Northpoint keeps custody of the money, authorization, and every donor relationship. The people who touch the money never record it; the people who record it never approve it. That's the separation of duties a church board expects to see.
Turnkey CFO handles
- Your general ledger, monthly close & all financial reporting
- AP & expense processing and coding (on Ramp)
- Bank, Square, Venmo & Benevity reconciliation
- Fund accounting — operating, building, restricted & the LLC
- Giving-health analytics (GivFlow) & annual giving statements
- Weekly cash & the monthly board package + this dashboard
- W-2 / 1099 issuance
Northpoint keeps
- Counting & handling all cash, checks & deposits
- Final authorization of every payment & payroll run
- Donor relationships & pastoral giving conversations
- People & giving records in Planning Center
- Ministry purchasing & scholarship decisions
- Adding & removing users on bank & card platforms
Your AP, cards, and expenses become one — and the fees disappear.
Today Northpoint runs AP on Bill.com, cards on Capital One, and expense & receipt management on Expensify — three tools, three logins, three bills. We'll consolidate all of it onto Ramp, a platform we already run for other churches. Every charge gets coded the moment it happens, so the books stay continuously close-ready — and your Bill.com and Expensify subscriptions go away.
- Real-time coding. Every charge classified as it happens — no month-end reconstruction.
- One platform replaces three. Bill pay, cards & expense management in one source of truth.
- No monthly platform cost. Ramp is free — your Bill.com and Expensify fees are eliminated.
- Vendors & receipts captured. Ends the $432K of card spend with no recorded merchant.
- Direct QuickBooks sync. Coded transactions flow straight to the GL.
Three tiers. One finance bill, not a patchwork.
Straight from your books: Ramp replaces Bill.com and Expensify, so with Turnkey your entire finance bill becomes one number. Books & payroll start below what you pay today; the dashboard tier holds about flat while doing far more; advisory puts a finance partner on call.

Your first 30 days, mapped.
A church mid-campaign can't afford a messy transition, so we sequence it deliberately: get the books clean and the reporting live first, then move payroll and the platforms only once everything's running steady. You authorize every access, and nothing changes on a platform until you say go.
Say yes & kick off
Pick a tier and sign a simple month-to-month agreement — no setup fee. We schedule a 30-minute kickoff with leadership and send one short checklist: the access we'll need and a few documents to confirm.
Access & discovery
You grant read access to QuickBooks, the bank, Square, Venmo & Benevity, Planning Center, and your current payroll. We map your chart of accounts, your funds (operating, building, restricted & the LLC), and document the FUEL build — so nothing about your structure is guessed.
Catch-up close
We reconcile every open item, clear the backlog of uncoded "Credit Card Misc." charges, rebuild the chart of accounts around your funds, and bring the books to one clean, current close — the baseline everything else runs from.
First board package — fully onboarded
Your leadership opens the live dashboard to a clean, current month, with the first monthly board package in hand — and your standing monthly review begins, timed to your leadership rhythm. From here, the books run on a steady monthly cadence.
Payroll review & migration
With the books stable, we turn to payroll. It runs today on QuickBooks Online Payroll — we review the setup, surface what it actually costs you, and lay out the best-fit option plainly. If you choose to move, the migration takes about 3–4 weeks to fully go live, with a parallel run first so not a single pay run is missed or late. Nothing changes unless you approve it.
Ramp migration — last, once everything's settled
We save the platform move for last, after you're fully onboarded and the monthly close is running clean. Migrating all of AP, bills, cards, and expenses onto Ramp is a deliberate 4–6 week transition — we run it in parallel and move things over in stages so nothing drops. When it's done, Bill.com and Expensify go away and every charge is coded in real time.
Let's get Northpoint home with clean books.
A 30-minute walkthrough with leadership — confirm the tier, and we start onboarding this week. You keep control of every dollar; we give the board numbers it can finally trust.
