Overview

PowerChurch Check In is an add-on for PowerChurch Plus and PowerChurch Online that manages check-in and checkout for child security and event attendance. It automatically records attendance and works with PowerChurch Membership, Activities & Skills, and Events Calendar. For each event, a parent label can include an automatically generated security code; the system tracks who dropped off and picked up a child. Kiosks can be staffed or self-serve, and express checkout can use barcode scanning. Labels can include name badges, bag tags, parent labels, and teacher notes. Supported equipment includes label printers, barcode scanners, webcams, and electronic pagers. Teachers or nursery workers can add incident notes with a time and location for parents to see during checkout. The installed kiosk application runs on Windows and macOS. PowerChurch Online users can also use a browser kiosk, but that option is not available for PowerChurch Plus. Online Check In costs 18.00 USD per month or 198.00 USD per year. PowerChurch Plus options include one-time upgrades and new-user purchases; a new-user standard download costs 189.00 USD per once, and requires PowerChurch Plus.

Who it is for

It suits churches and organizations already using PowerChurch Plus or PowerChurch Online that need child check-in or event attendance records. It can also record attendance at adult activities and church-wide events.
