Registrations and payments
Ticket options, early-bird prices, coupons and bundles. People pay online by card or instant EFT through Yoco or PayFast, or at the door; donations and sponsored places are handled too.
Cross Events · for churches
Church events, without the admin.
Cross Events brings registrations, payments, tickets and check-in together in one place, with kids check-in, volunteer rosters, reports and AI helpers built in. Your team spends less time on spreadsheets and more time with people.
Features
Everything an event needs, from the first registration to the last report
Built around how churches really run events: Sunday-morning simple for your congregation, thorough for the team behind the scenes.
Tickets and check-in
Every ticket has a QR code. Your team checks people in with a phone, sells at the door, and gets an attendance register without any paperwork.
Multi-day events and courses
Conferences, camps and courses with sessions. People can pick the days they'll attend, and you get attendance per session and certificates at the end.
Kids check-in
Families check children in to their rooms and receive a pickup code, so children only go home with the right person. Leaders see who is in their room.
Volunteer rosters
Serving roles per event or session. Volunteers sign up, swap shifts among themselves and check in when they arrive.
Series and season passes
Run a monthly breakfast or a yearly camp as a series. Followers hear when the next one opens, and a season pass registers someone for every event in one checkout.
Email and WhatsApp
Message everyone registered for an event, schedule reminders, and send automatic confirmations, tickets and payment links.
Reports and cash-up
Finance, profit, attendance and registration reports, plus a cash-up that reconciles cash, card and online payments per event. Export to Excel or PDF.
Multiple campuses
One system for every campus, with events, reports and staff access per campus, and church-wide events when you need them.
POPIA toolkit
A built-in privacy notice, consent and access logs, data requests and retention rules, to help your church look after people's information.
AI helpers
Draft an event from a few notes, turn a short note into a friendly message, summarise a report or event feedback, and polish text. You check every suggestion first.
Feedback after events
Send a short feedback form after an event and see ratings, choices and comments, compared across events.

How it works
Your church's own Cross Events
Your own site
Every church gets its own Cross Events site and database, with your name, logo and colours. Your information is never mixed with another church's.
Set-up and onboarding
We set everything up with you, from payment providers to email and WhatsApp, and show your team how it works.
Run your events
Your team creates events, your congregation registers and pays online, and check-in happens on a phone.
Updates when you're ready
New versions are released regularly. You see what's new and choose when your site updates.
Licences
Priced by the size of your events
Every church gets every feature. What you pay depends on your event income over the last 12 months, so a small church pays a small-church price. Pay monthly, or yearly and get two months free.
Founding churches: 35% off for as long as you stay
The first 10 churches to join, or everyone who joins by 30 June 2027 if that comes first, pay 35% less on any tier for as long as their subscription carries on without a break. If your church grows into a bigger tier, the 35% comes with you.
One month free
Try everything for a month, free. We set up your site and help you run a real event. No card and no commitment: if you don't continue, your site becomes read-only so you can export everything, and we delete it after 30 days.

- Your tier is based on your event income over the last 12 months: tickets and other payments through Cross Events, less refunds.
- Donations and sponsored places are never counted, so generosity never costs you more.
- New churches start on the tier for last year's events, from your own estimate.
- We check it once a year when your licence renews, never in the middle of the year. If your income has dropped, you move down.
Every licence includes
- Every feature. Kids check-in, volunteer rosters, campuses, reports, the POPIA toolkit: nothing is held back for a bigger tier.
- Set-up and onboarding. We set up your Cross Events site and help your team get started.
- R20 of AI use every month. The AI helpers are included in your subscription: there's no extra charge for the monthly R20 AI allowance.
- Updates. New versions are released regularly, and you choose when your site updates.
- Support by email and WhatsApp. Questions and problems go straight to us, by email or WhatsApp.
Start your free month
Tell us a little about your church and the events you run. We'll set up your site, confirm your tier and help you run your first event.
Coming later: bundle and save. Church website: A website for your church that's easy to keep up to date, designed to work with Cross Events. Church web app: An app for your congregation at your own address, like app.yourchurch.co.za. People add it to their home screen; no app store needed. Take any two products together and save 15%, or all three and save 25%.
Your web address
One address covers all your products, so you only pay for it once. It's never discounted.
- Your own domain: free. You already have a domain, like hopefamily.co.za. You (or whoever looks after it) add the DNS records we send; we look after the certificates.
- A Cross Code address: R10 a month. No domain needed: hopefamily.crosscode.co.za, with events. in front for Cross Events. Free during your trial, and you can move to your own domain at any time.
- Domain included: R25 a month. We register a .co.za or .org.za in your church's name, renew it every year and manage it. If you ever leave, we transfer it to you, free. Other endings like .com at cost.
Support
Help from the people who built it
When you have a question, you talk to us directly by email or WhatsApp, not a call centre.
Email and WhatsApp
Questions, problems and requests go straight to us at admin@crosscode.co.za or on WhatsApp at +27 68 903 8075.
Standby for your big events
Got a major event coming up? Let us know well in advance and we can arrange dedicated standby support during the event. Standby support may carry an additional fee, depending on the arrangement.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is the AI allowance an extra cost?
No. Every licence includes R20 of AI use each month as part of the subscription. If your church uses it all in a month, the AI buttons simply pause until the next month; the rest of Cross Events carries on as normal.
Do we need technical knowledge to use it?
No. Set-up and onboarding are included in your licence: we set up your site and show your team how it works. After that, everything is done from the screens, without technical knowledge.
How do people pay?
Online by card or instant EFT through Yoco or PayFast (your church uses its own account with the provider), or in person by cash, card or EFT, which your team records. The provider's own transaction fees are separate from your Cross Events licence.
Can it look like our church?
Yes. Your church's name, logo and colours are used on your Cross Events site and in the emails it sends.
Is our information kept separate from other churches?
Yes. Every church has its own Cross Events site and its own database, so your information is never mixed with another church's.
What support do we get?
Support is by email and WhatsApp. If you have a major event coming up, let us know well in advance and we can arrange dedicated standby support during the event. Standby support may carry an additional fee, depending on the arrangement.
Can we pay monthly or yearly?
Both. Licences are per church or organisation, paid monthly or yearly. Paying yearly costs 10 months' price for 12 months, so two months are free.
How do you work out our tier?
From your event income over the last 12 months: ticket sales and other payments through Cross Events, less refunds. Donations and sponsored places are never counted. Your site tells us only which range it falls in, never the amount. New churches start on the tier for last year's events, from your own estimate, and we check it once a year when your licence renews.
What if our income goes up or down?
Nothing changes in the middle of the year. When your licence renews we look at the last 12 months, and you move to the tier that fits, down as well as up. A founding church keeps its 35% discount on its new tier.
How does the free month work?
We set up your Cross Events site and help you run a real event, free for a month, with every feature. There's no card and no commitment. If you don't continue, your site becomes read-only so you can export everything, and we delete it after 30 days.
What is a founding church?
One of the first 10 churches to join, or a church that joins by 30 June 2027 if that comes first. Founding churches pay 35% less on any tier for as long as their subscription carries on without a break.
