Guest Check-In

How do guests and substitutes check in to adoration?

When a guest (not a scheduled adorer) makes an adoration visit, they can check in using the Adoration Check-In Kiosk.

Checking In

First, they click the Guest button. If a scheduled adorer has yet to check in, the button is labeled Guest or Substitute.

Guest or Substitute button on the kiosk — Guest check-in

Then, they are presented with a form to complete their check-in:

Guest Check-In form — The guest check-in form

The Name field is the only required field. To finish, they click Check in as Guest. Or, if they are substituting for a committed adorer or group, they can click a Check in as a substitute button.

Now that they are checked in, their name appears next to other adorers with commitments for that hour.

Asking to Learn More

The adorer also has the option to learn more about making a commitment or being a substitute.

Guest Check-In Form with additional contact fields on the kiosk — Guest check-in form with additional contact fields

If they select this option, they must enter their email address or phone number. This information is emailed to all administrators and captains with the Guest adorer checked in admin notification enabled.

Sending the Guest Welcome Email and Text Message

If the adorer provides their email address and/or phone number, they are sent a "thank you" email and/or text message inviting them to visit your We Adore Him website, make an adoration commitment, or sign up as a substitute.

Customize the email and text message templates with the Guest Welcome Email and Guest Welcome Text Message fields at Admin » Settings » Attendance.

The guest welcome email can include an image, and the Guest welcome email attachment field attaches a PDF, which guests can open right from the email. Learn more about images and PDFs in emails.

Additional Considerations

If the guest's name, email address, or phone number matches an existing adorer account, the visit will be credited to that account.
If a committed adorer somehow misses their name and checks in as a guest, the above rule will apply, but the system is also intelligent enough to check them into their committed hour.
The guest visit history is available at Admin » Visits. We recommend periodically following up with these adorers.
