Let's face it. Your well-planned worship service may not be well-executed if your volunteers and staff don’t show up. And even if you think they would show up, wouldn’t it be awesome to know who confirmed?
Most Church Management Systems (ChMS) that offers worship service planning options offer some combination of email, free texting confirmations, and/or follow up reminders.

Let's face it. Your well-planned worship service may not be well-executed if your volunteers and staff don’t show up. And even if you think they would show up, wouldn’t it be awesome to know who confirmed?
Most Church Management Systems (ChMS) that offers worship service planning options offer some combination of email, free texting confirmations, and/or follow up reminders.
So why then
would you need
a solution like
Confirmed.Church?
You see, 97% of texts are opened and read within the first 3 minutes vs. 20% of received emails. Having confirmations and reminders via both email and text is a good thing.
However, the free texting option used by most worship planning software requires you to Know the person’s carrier (whether they use T-mobile or Verizon for example) AND use the SMS gateway provided by the carrier. Usually, this isn’t allowed by most companies outside of the US, so you can’t use your free texting option internationally. For US churches, the nation's largest carrier, Verizon, stopped allowing access to their gateway.
So you are stuck with a decent working email confirmation and follow-up option that has an open rate of only 20% and a free texting option that requires work to get setup — and may not work for the device your volunteer uses.
Here is the great news for you! Save time, minimize frustration, and increase your confirmations and volunteers who show up on time by integrating your Worship Service planning software with Confirmed.Church.
Confirmed.Church allows you direct texting to your volunteers without needing to know their carrier information. And since it’s traditional texting and we offer multiple global numbers, you can ensure this works in the US, CA, and many other countries around the world that we support.
Ready to integrate your favorite CHMS, easily automate your confirmation requests, create follow-up templates, and ensure your message is delivered to your volunteers?

Editable templates
Messages are already personalized with merge fields such as your volunteer’s name and the name of your church service. Now, you can edit the entire message to reflect your church’s character and culture.
Most messages are editable by everyone. For some messages, editing permission depends on your plan. A few messages must be standard to optimize app performance, so they are not available for editing.

Real Clients
It worked! I got the text message, accepted, and it was confirmed in PCO. I can also say that our volunteers did get a 1 hour reminder text yesterday morning, including Verizon users! This is definitely an improvement for our church.
Just wanted you to know that things are working GREAT! Confirmation texts are coming through. Reminder texts are right on time. Everything is working great right now.

FAQS
Which church management systems (ChMS) do you currently work with?
Currently, we work with Planning Center. We are exploring other church management systems that have service scheduling workflows and good APIs. It is likely that Church Community Builder will be next.
I recommend joining the waitlist. You could also reach out to us to let us know of your interest—just click on our website chat link.
Can I use Confirmed.Church without a church management system (ChMS)?
At the moment, no, since Confirmed.Church was designed to work with a ChMS.
Having said that, if you don’t use Planning Center or any ChMS and would like to use Confirmed.Church at your church or with your teams, etc., please get in touch. We will create an option so that you can set up services within this app.
By the way, no ETA, but in general, this is something which is part of our future plans for use with events such as VBS.
Do you require the carrier information in order to send a text?
Nope because it is direct texting. Works with Verizon mobile phones as well.
