Getting Started with Church Connect

Accessing Church Connect

To access Church Connect, Select the Church Connect Icon on the ChurchTrac Toolbar. This is the "Admin" side of things where you will configure and set up your Church Connect page.

Church Connect Toolbar

The credentials you use to log in to ChurchTrac are different from your Church Connect account. Each person who logs in to Church Connect will need to register to gain access. However, if the email address they use matches an email address on your People screen, we'll automatically match that person to the correct profile.

Connect Page URL and QR Code

ChurchTrac automatically assigns you a unique URL for your Church Connect Page. You can customize your sub-domain of this URL to make it easier for you and your people to access (and remember) your Connect Page URL. To customize your URL, select "customize your link" above the URL.

CC Customize URL and QR Code

To download the QR code for your Connect Page, select the QR Code button located to the right of your URL.
