Check In with Church Center App

Use the Church Center app to check in members of your household! Depending on how your church has things set up, you may be able to check in completely, or you will precheck in and scan your app when you arrive at church, which will complete the process. 

Check In Household

On the day of the event, select the Check-In tab to see events happening that day.

Select an event, choose which household and members to check in, and update time/location/options as needed. Tap Next to complete the steps.

If you see a message that you are checked in, you're good to go! If you get a QR code, you're prechecked in, and your church requires you to scan that code at a check-in station to complete the check-in. 

Manage Precheck

Before scanning at the station, you can edit your precheck by tapping Edit precheck and selecting the pencil icon next to a household member's name.

Once checked in, your security code and barcode populate on that same page.

If you have household members who haven't checked in, tap Edit precheck. Then, you can switch between the Check-in and Check-out tabs to keep track of everyone.

For safety reasons, people within your household who check in at separate times will have separate security codes. Tap a person's name to access their barcode.

Tip

Household adults can access all precheck details for their family members, no matter which device created them!

Troubleshooting

Can't Find a Specific Person to Check In

To check in a person, the person must be part of your household. If you're a trusted person for a child, you cannot see that child on Church Center. You must ask an administrator at your church to help you check in another way.

For events that require registration, you can only select household members who are registered for the event.

Everyone Pre-Checked is Not Checked In

  • Pre-checking household members does not reserve a spot for them. If you scan your QR code and the location you selected for a household member is no longer available, you must choose a different location or deselect that household member in Church Center to continue.

  • If the station is locked to a specific location, only people pre-checked for that location will be checked in. Ask an administrator to help locate all the stations you must visit to check in all your family members.
