What PowerChurch Check In is

PowerChurch Check In is an add-on for PowerChurch Plus and PowerChurch Online that handles check-in, checkout, child security, and event attendance. It automatically records attendance and works with PowerChurch Membership, Activities & Skills, and Events Calendar. At check-in, a parent label receives an automatically generated security code, and the system tracks who dropped off and picked up each child. Kiosks support staffed and self-serve use; express checkout can use barcode scanning. Labels can include name badges, bag tags, parent labels, and teacher notes, with support for label printers, barcode scanners, webcams, and electronic pagers. Teachers or nursery workers can add incident notes with time and location for parents to see at checkout. Installed kiosk applications run on Windows or macOS. PowerChurch Online also supports a browser kiosk, but PowerChurch Plus does not. Online Check In costs $18 a month or $198 a year. PowerChurch Plus purchase options include upgrades and new-user editions. The product is intended for churches and other organizations, including adult activities and church-wide events.
