BUSINESS MEMBERSHIP
CEO’s, Managers and Executive Assistants sign up on behalf of your business.
COST:
The cost for a Christian Business Membership is only $100 per year.Â
That’s less than $2 a week! Why have we set it so low? Because we appreciate your budget and want every Christian business in New Zealand to be able to invest in building unity and helping the church of Aotearoa to grow and flourish.
This membership renews automatically each year if paid by credit card. If you pay via bank transfer, you will receive a reminder that payment is due and you will need to make a bank deposit and email us proof of payment to keep your membership active. You can also set up an automatic annual bank transfer via your bank.
APPLYING FOR A CHRISTIAN BUSINESS MEMBERSHIP:
If you are the CEO, Manager and Executive Assistant authorised to give assent to our statement of faith on behalf of your business, you can apply for your business to become a member.
If you aren’t, then please tell them about NZ Christian Network and encourage them to visit this page to find out more about us and why they should sign up for Business Membership.
Please encourage other staff at your business to join as individuals.
See the FAQ section for answers to common questions.

*Job opportunities: The NZ Human Rights Act makes it unlawful for employers to discriminate against job seekers based on their sex, race, religion (or any of the protected grounds) unless these can be justified as genuine requirements for the job as specified in the Human Rights Act. Businesses will naturally want to employ people who they feel will be a good fit for their organisation, however, there are potential limits on this that businesses need to be aware of. Hiring is at your own discretion and NZ Christian Network will not be involved in any part of the process.
