Church welcome table kiosk

Church visitor check in app for simple guest follow up

MemberMaker turns an iPhone, iPad, or supported Android device into a clean visitor sign-in kiosk for church lobbies, welcome tables, adult classes, community meals, and outreach events. Guests enter their own contact details, then parents can select saved children or add them by name. Your team gets individual attendance records and adult contact details for follow-up.

  • Works on iPhone, iPad, and supported Android devices
  • Fullscreen kiosk mode for self-service visitor check-in
  • Family and children’s check-in with saved people and name-only additions
  • Custom welcome questions for different ministries and events
  • Optional checkout, visit status, and duration
  • Export guest contacts to CSV for follow-up lists and spreadsheets

Family and children's check-in

Welcome parents and children in the same check-in flow

A parent completes your usual visitor check-in, then selects saved children or adds someone by name. Each selected person receives a separate attendance record, so your welcome table can record the family attending together.

For a family service or children’s program with participating adults, record the parent first and then the children present. On the next visit, the saved people are ready to select again.

  • Add children by name; no email address or phone number is required for additional people.
  • Select saved family members after the parent's normal check-in confirmation.
  • Record a separate visit for each selected person at the same event.

Enable Group check-in in your organization's Group/Family Checkin page or Kiosk Settings. It is off by default and works in the app kiosk and web/QR flow.

The parent is recorded as attending too. Group check-in records attendance; use your existing procedures for child registration, classroom assignment, and authorized pickup.

Built for churches without extra complexity

Replace paper connection cards with a focused visitor kiosk

Help your welcome team collect readable visitor details and record families attending together. Parents complete the usual check-in first, then choose children from their saved people without entering a separate email or phone number for each child.

Set the device where your connection cards or guestbook usually sit. First-time guests can sign in at their own pace, returning visitors can be tracked over time, and the information is ready when your pastor, ministry leader, or welcome team wants to reach out.

Sunday service visitors

Capture guest contact details at the welcome table before or after worship, without passing a clipboard down the row.

Adult classes and small groups

Use the same device for Bible studies, adult groups, membership classes, volunteer orientations, and recurring ministry gatherings.

Community outreach events

Build a follow-up list from meals, open houses, volunteer days, neighborhood events, and seasonal programs.

Follow up while the visit is still fresh

Turn church guest check-in into a usable follow-up list

A visitor check-in kiosk helps your team move faster after Sunday. Instead of entering paper cards into a spreadsheet, your guest list is already digital, easier to read, and ready to export.

  • Collect visitor names, email addresses, and phone numbers
  • See repeat visits over time
  • Review check-in, checkout, status, and visit duration
  • Ask reusable custom questions for services, classes, or outreach events
  • Export contacts to CSV for church office workflows
  • Use a phone or tablet your team already owns
  • Keep the check-in experience simple for volunteers and guests

Where churches can use MemberMaker

MemberMaker works best anywhere a church would normally put a connection card, visitor book, attendance sheet, or clipboard.

  • Welcome tables and lobby kiosks
  • Bible studies and adult education classes
  • Adult small groups and volunteer orientations
  • New member and newcomer classes
  • Community meals, open houses, and outreach events

Why a simple kiosk helps

Church guests may not want a complicated registration process, and volunteers may not have time to manage a large system. A focused sign-in kiosk keeps the moment calm while still giving your team the details they need.

  • Fewer unreadable names and phone numbers
  • Less manual data entry after services
  • A consistent process across ministries
  • Better records of who came back
  • Easier handoff from greeters to follow-up teams

Frequently asked questions

Is this a full church management system?

No. MemberMaker is a focused visitor check-in app for contact details, custom responses, and visit records. It does not manage households, membership, giving, groups, or church communications.

Can we use it on an iPad or Android tablet at the welcome table?

Yes. MemberMaker supports iPhone, iPad, and supported Android devices. Fullscreen mode keeps the shared device focused on guided guest check-in.

Can we export visitor information?

Yes. Export approved contact details, responses, check-in and checkout times, status, and duration to CSV for the church workflow you already use.

Does MemberMaker send follow-up emails or text messages?

No. MemberMaker captures and exports the guest record. Your welcome team uses its approved email, text, church management, or pastoral-care process for follow-up.

Can we create different questions for different adult ministries?

Yes. Create reusable prompt groups, publish different questions, and apply an experience to one kiosk or every appropriate organization kiosk.

Is this a children's church check-in system?

Group check-in lets a parent check in first, then select saved children or add them by name. Each person receives a separate attendance record for the same event. It does not provide security labels, authorized pickup, classroom assignment, or verified guardianship.
