How Parafio works

Key features that make managing Mass intentions and donations easier in your parish.

A convenient digital Mass intention book

Accept, search, print, and manage Mass intentions of every kind: individual, perpetual, collective, Gregorian, and unscheduled.

Mass offerings with fast payments

Accept one-time and recurring donations for specific community needs, plus Mass offerings for requested intentions. Secure payments by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and more.

Full website integration

Automatically publish Mass intentions on your website, share available Mass times, and announce collections for any purpose.

Benefits for the faithful

Mass intentions and donations — quick and easy online

Help those who cannot reach the parish office — and reach those who prefer to request intentions online. With Parafio, Mass intentions and offerings can be made quickly from any device.

Parafio app — Mass intention calendar and online payments

Requesting and reserving Mass intentions

Request or reserve a Mass intention online, without visiting the parish office

Full website integration

Full integration with your website — everything in one place, available 24/7

Clear calendar

Quickly find available Mass times through a clear calendar with a visual availability preview

Forms for every intention type

Forms tailored to individual, collective, and Gregorian Mass intentions, remembrance intentions, devotions, and perpetual Masses

Fast and secure payments

Make a Mass offering by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or cash at the parish office — the choice is yours

Parish office at hand

Accepting Mass intentions no longer has to happen only in the parish office during set hours. Any priest can record an intention from anywhere. Finding an open Mass time and editing the date or text saves time and avoids messy corrections in parish books.

  • Find an open Mass time quickly

    A clear monthly view and search help you spot available Masses without flipping through paper books.

  • Edit any Mass intention with ease

    Change the date or text online — no crossings-out in the parish books.

Easy management

A clear monthly view and search make it easy to find and review Mass intentions.
