Purchasing Your Plan

You can complete your purchase in about five minutes.

Head over to www.equalfaith.org/sales/products to view our offerings. We currently offer two tiers: Regular and Pro. Compare the features and pick the one that best matches your organization's size and needs. For a quick pick, Welfare Pro comes with additional premium themes, while the Welfare Regular fewer.

Once you've decided, click Add to Cart on the plan you want.

On the product card, look for the Expand Advanced toggle (or similar wording). This reveals optional services such as:

• Custom domain configuration
• Professional installation assistance
• Staff training sessions

Each extra comes with its own price tag, so you can pick and choose only what makes sense for your team.

4. Select Currency & Payment Method

Proceed to checkout. Choose your preferred currency from the dropdown menu, then select a payment gateway supported in your region—options include Paystack, Flutterwave, Stripe, PayPal, and more.

5. Finalize Payment

Follow the gateway's instructions to complete your transaction. After successful payment, you're officially licensed.

What Happens Next

Within minutes of confirming your payment, you'll receive an email containing:

• Your complete source code package
• Your unique license key

Save both in a secure location—you'll need them during installation.

Self-Installation Guide

If you opted out of our setup service, use the steps below to deploy EqualFaith Welfare on your own.

> Video walkthrough available: We've created a step-by-step tutorial on the Miragek YouTube channel. Watch it to see the installer in action.

Server Prerequisites

Before you begin, confirm your hosting environment meets these minimums:

• PHP version 7.4 or newer
• MySQL database (create one beforehand via your hosting panel)
• A domain pointing to your server
• File upload access (FTP, cPanel File Manager, or similar)

The platform works smoothly on shared hosting, VPS, or dedicated servers.

Installation Walkthrough

1. Transfer the Files

Upload the entire EqualFaith Welfare folder you received to your server's public directory (commonly named public_html or www). Use whichever file transfer method you're most comfortable with.

2. Unpack the Archive

If your package came as a ZIP file, extract it directly on the server. Most hosting panels include an extraction tool—use it to ensure all files are properly placed.

3. Launch the Installer

Point your browser to:

textCopy

yourdomain.com/install

(Obviously, swap yourdomain.com for your actual domain name.)

The installation wizard will load and walk you through the rest.

4. Complete the Setup Screens

The installer will prompt you for:

• Database credentials (the MySQL database and user you created earlier)
• Admin account details—choose a strong email and password combo
• Your license key (from the post-purchase email)
• Initial platform preferences

Take your time reading each screen. The whole process typically wraps up in just a few minutes.

When the installer shows a success message, visit your domain. Your EqualFaith Welfare platform is now live! Log in using the admin credentials you just set up, and explore your dashboard to start managing your welfare programs.
