What Amplify Communications is
Amplify Communications is a web-based communications service for churches. It brings text messaging, email, and automated voice calls into one place, with messages sent immediately or scheduled for later. Churches can direct communications to defined audiences such as volunteers, small groups, first-time visitors, congregations, donors, and ministry groups. Two-way SMS supports notifications for new members and reminders about schedule changes, events, and activities. Email tools handle scheduled newsletters, volunteer reminders, and member surveys. Keyword opt-ins allow recipients to choose relevant communications, while quick capture forms collect contact details and interests. Amplify says its modules share one member database, one giving record, and one login, connecting messaging with church data. It lists audience segmentation, church software integrations, and a mobile app. Security statements include PCI-compliant payment processing and role-based permissions. Support includes module training and hourly consulting. A free trial is available; pricing is on request and varies by church size and selected solutions.
