Getting Started

Set up your church on SteadyFaith — sign up, complete onboarding, and go live with your first check-in.

What it is

SteadyFaith is an all-in-one church platform for guest check-in, attendance tracking, follow-up, giving, and engagement insights. This guide walks you through signing up and getting your church ready for Sunday.

Where to find it

  • Sign up: steadyfaith.com/signup
  • Onboarding wizard: /onboarding (launched automatically after signup)
  • Admin dashboard: /dashboard

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Create your account — Visit the signup page and enter your church name, admin email, and password. SteadyFaith includes a 14-day free trial with a card on file (not charged until the trial ends).
  2. Complete the onboarding wizard — The setup guide walks you through church info, branding, service times, check-in QR codes, giving buckets, and team invites. You can resume anytime from Dashboard → Onboarding.
  3. Share your check-in link — From the dashboard home, use Quick Actions to copy your guest check-in URL or download a QR code. Display it at your entrance on Sunday.
  4. Invite your team — Add staff and volunteers from Dashboard → Settings so they can help with check-in and follow-up.
  5. Review your first Sunday — After service, check Dashboard → Attendance for check-in records and Dashboard → People for new guest profiles.

Tips & common issues

  • AI-assisted setup: The onboarding wizard uses AI to guide you through each step — branding, QR codes, giving funds, and messaging settings — so you can go live quickly.
  • Trial limits: Trial accounts include 50 text messages and 500 emails. Additional SMS is $10 per 500 texts; additional email is $5 per 10,000 emails.
  • Upgrade anytime: Start on Starter and move to Growth as your church's needs increase.
