Can you text a keyword to be automatically checked in to a Planning Center service?

Verified answer · Added May 7, 2026

Answer

Planning Center Check-Ins has no native text-keyword check-in; Text In Church's keyword feature adds people to a group synced to Planning Center People, not a Check-Ins event — true check-in requires the Church Center app, phone number lookup, or a barcode scan.
