Costs and Payments

Membership Is Free

Joining Kingdom Global Fellowship costs nothing. We believe you should understand exactly what does carry a cost, how it is priced for your country, and where the money goes, before you commit to anything.

Membership

Nothing to Pay to Belong

Membership of KGF is free. There is no application fee, there are no monthly dues, and there is no annual membership fee.

Free

Applying

Applying for membership costs nothing. You complete your application and upload your photo, and your application goes forward to your District Overseer.

No invoice is raised to join, and nothing is asked of you before you are received.

Your membership begins as soon as your application is received, and your AMI number is issued at once.

No application fee
Free

Belonging

Once you are received and your AMI number is issued, your membership carries no recurring charge. Nothing is charged simply for remaining a member, month by month or year by year.

Your standing in the fellowship is never measured by money you owe, because membership itself never creates a charge.

No monthly dues, no annual fee

What does carry a cost is set out below. Each is something you choose to take up, and you see its price for your own country before you pay anything.

What Carries a Cost

Credentials, Ordination, Courses and Events

The work of the fellowship is sustained by the things members choose to take up, not by membership itself. None of them is required to be a member in good standing.

Credentials

Each type of credential has its own fee, set for your country in local currency. You pay when you apply: applying raises an invoice, and the review begins once it is paid, or once an officer waives it.

Some credentials also require you to complete specific courses of the Institute first.

About Credentials

Ordination and Consecration

Ordination and consecration carry fees drawn from KGF’s approved fee schedule, set for your country in local currency. Where your country permits it, they can be paid in instalments under a payment plan rather than at once.

Institute Courses

Classes and courses of The Melchizedek Priesthood Institute are priced for each country, in local currency. You see the price for your country before you enrol.

Event Tickets and the Shop

Some events carry a paid ticket, and items in the shop are sold at the price shown. Both are optional, and neither is a condition of membership.

Why Pricing Differs

Set for Each Country

KGF serves members across several continents, where incomes and currencies differ enormously. A figure that is reasonable in one country can be impossible in another.

So every figure — each credential fee, the ordination fee schedule, Institute course prices and event tickets — is set separately for each country, in that country’s own currency, by the Global Office. You always see the figure for your own country before you pay anything.

This is also why you will not find a price list on this page. Publishing one figure would be wrong for almost everybody reading it.

In Practice

What You Will See

When you apply for a credential, begin ordination, enrol on an Institute course or book a paid event, the price for your country is shown in your local currency before anything becomes payable.

Applying for membership shows no price at all, because there is none.

Paying and Keeping Track

How You Pay

Pay online by card or mobile money where that is available in your country, or at your district or national office, where an officer records the payment. Card details are typed on the payment provider’s page and never reach the fellowship.

When a Payment Counts

A payment counts only once it is confirmed — by the payment provider for an online payment, or by an officer who has seen the money for a payment made at an office. Your receipt then appears in the member portal, ready to print or save as a PDF.

Payment Plans

Where your country permits it, ordination and consecration fees can be paid in instalments under a payment plan, rather than all at once.

Invoices and Receipts

Applying for a credential, ordination, enrolling on a course or booking a paid event raises an invoice in the member portal, where you can see what you have been invoiced, what you have paid, and every receipt.

Where It Goes

The Office Funding Principle

Revenue from credentials, ordination and Institute courses is not collected centrally and spent centrally. It is divided between the four levels of the fellowship according to KGF’s approved fee schedule, and each carries real responsibility for its members.

District Office

Your local leadership — meetings, pastoral care, interviews, and the district events you attend.

Regional Office

Oversight across districts, regional conferences, and the development of new districts.

National Office

National governance, convocations, and representation of KGF in your country.

Global Office

Doctrine, credentials, training standards, and the administration that holds the fellowship together.

How revenue is divided between the offices is set by KGF governance through the approved fee schedule, and applied consistently. In the member portal you can see every invoice raised for you and every payment received. How a payment is then divided between offices is a matter for the fellowship’s accounts and is not shown on your own record.

Giving

Giving Is Voluntary

A gift is entirely voluntary. It is never a condition of membership, and it is never a charge against you.

Gifts are accounted for by the Global Office separately from payments for credentials, ordination, courses and events. Every gift receives a receipt, and a monthly gift can be cancelled at any time from the link in its receipt.

Give to the Work

Gifts help districts form and serve, help ministers train, and carry outreach and missions further.
