What Church Compass is
Church Compass provides a church member app and web admin portal for operations, communication, donations, and discipleship content. Members can RSVP to events, watch live or archived sermons, and add timestamped notes to videos. The app also supports small groups, private messaging, prayer requests, and attendance check-in by QR code or manually. Administrators can track attendance and manage volunteer roles and shifts. Giving uses Stripe-powered checkout with fund designations and recurring gifts, or a church can link its own giving page. In-app donations incur a 0.25% Church Compass platform fee per donation, with Stripe processing fees charged separately. Worship Compass includes a song library, set lists, rehearsal scheduling, collaborative songwriting, and SongSelect integration for CCLI-licensed music. Plans start with Basic at $19 a month for up to 500 members; Standard is $29 a month for up to 1,000 members, and Unlimited is $69 a month for 1,500+ members. Church registration and payment-related actions must be completed on the website.
