Getting Started with Registrations

With Registrations, you can create an event and give your people the opportunity to register/sign up for it. These could include Youth Camps, VBS, Festivals, Potlucks, and other events your ministry will be hosting.

• Creating New Registrations
• Attendee Types & Cost
• Form Questions
• Sharing Registrations
• Managing Registrations

To allow people to register for an event, and determine who can register, select the “Setup Registrations for this Event” button in the Registrations tab of the Edit Event menu.

ChurchTrac gives you the option to enable registrations for Anyone or limit it to Connect Members. Learn more about Who Can Register for Events ›

1. Enable Registration for Anyone

   This allows anyone to register, even if they don’t have an account in Church Connect or are not members of your organization. We will automatically add fields to the registration form asking for the person’s name and email address.

2. Enable Registration for Connect Users

   This restricts who can register for an event to only those with an account on your Church Connect app. If a member of your church or organization wants to register, they will first have to create an account in Church Connect and be logged in to that account as they proceed to register.

Choose a registration method based on how you want to track attendees at your event. Each one allows you to collect different information from your registrants.

A Single Registration collects info on just the person registering, a Count Registration collects a total number of people attending, and the Detailed Registration collects additional info on each attendee. Learn more about Creating New Registrations ›

With Registrations, you can specify different types of attendees for an event and also designate the costs associated with those attendees. For example, let's say you're hosting a mid-week dinner. In this case, we have an Adult and Child Attendee Type with different costs for each. Learn More about Attendee Types and Cost ›

Depending on the event, you may need to ask for additional information from your registrants. You can create your own fields, import from a previous event, or choose from pre-built fields to help save you time. Learn More about Form Questions ›

Once you've created an Event Registration, you can share the event on your church website, social media, church app, and more.
