Church Compass
137 Park Land Dr, Lake Placid, FL 33852-5972, United States
What it is
Church Compass combines a member app with a web admin portal for church operations, communication, donations and discipleship content. Members can RSVP to events, watch live streams or archived sermons, and add timestamped notes to videos. The app supports small groups, private messages and prayer requests that can be public or anonymous. Members can check in manually or by QR code, while administrators track attendance and coordinate volunteer roles and shifts. For giving, churches can use Stripe-powered checkout with designated funds and recurring gifts, or link to their own giving page. Worship Compass adds song libraries, set lists, rehearsal scheduling, collaborative songwriting and SongSelect integration. Plans start at $19/mo for up to 500 members; higher membership tiers cost $29/mo for up to 1,000, $49/mo for up to 1,500 and $69/mo for 1,500+ members. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. In-app donations carry a 0.25% Church Compass platform fee, with Stripe processing fees additional. Registration and payment actions must be done on the website, and one lead admin handles billing for each church.
