Our verdict on Passport
Passport combines children's check-in, attendance tracking, visitor capture, follow-up, and member engagement for small and mid-sized churches. It supports kiosk registration, manual staff check-in from an admin dashboard, room assignment, secure pickup codes, parent SMS paging, and DYMO label printing for name labels and guardian tags. Churches can also provide members with a web portal and mobile app across web, iOS, and Android. Its focus suits churches that want visitor retention and check-in in one system rather than a dedicated check-in tool alone.
Pricing is available monthly or as monthly equivalents billed annually, with a 30-day free trial. Basic costs $9.95 per month on monthly billing or $5.60 per month billed annually and includes prospect capture, outreach interaction logging, manual follow-up workflows, basic people management, geo-located field tracking, and mobile apps. Plus costs $49 monthly or $39 per month billed annually, adding automated follow-up texts, a Monday morning dashboard, 30-day visitor journey tracking, unlimited visitors, Breeze and Planning Center import, and email support. Pro costs $99 monthly or $79 per month billed annually, adding up to 25 staff seats, up to 5 campus locations, CSV exports, retention analytics, priority support, and custom intake fields. Messaging and dedicated phone numbers incur separate usage charges.
Passport is strongest when a church needs visitor follow-up alongside children's check-in. QR forms, visitor journeys, retention analytics, attendance reports, digital badges, family linking, security alerts, and integrations with Breeze and Planning Center extend its role beyond arrival workflows. Churches with multiple campuses can use the Pro plan's location support, while smaller teams may find Basic or Plus sufficient. Choose Passport for a connected visitor and engagement workflow; choose a narrower check-in product if church management and retention features would add unnecessary scope.
