Church Center allows your church members to manage their profile information, donations, events they've registered for, and groups they attend or lead. They can also view a church calendar or directory and fill out forms. An Organization Administrator can enable the Church Center app in the account settings or Publishing, if you're subscribed.
Church Center is always enabled on the web and is also available as a mobile app that your congregants can download for free.

The Church Center app has the same functionality as the web version, plus access to Check-Ins. The app can be downloaded for free to an iOS or Android device.

You can provide a direct link to your church in Church Center so your congregants don't have to search for it. This link is in the Church Center resources section within Publishing Settings.
To allow congregants to find your church on the internet, you need to set up your domain name. This name will be incorporated into your church's Church Center URL.
