Your church uses KINLOCK. Here's what changes for you.

Instead of a sticker and a matching slip, you'll have a KINLOCK ID on your phone. Only you and the people you approve can collect your children.

Getting set up

Use your church's link

Your church will send you a registration link. Each church has its own.

Add your family

Your details, your children, allergies or medical notes, and anyone else allowed to collect.

Church approves

A children's ministry admin checks your registration and photos.

Get your KINLOCK ID

Sign in with your email. No password to remember.

On Sunday

During the serviceLeaders can tap the band to see your child's room, allergies and who may collect them.
Pick-upShow your KINLOCK ID again. Staff check you're allowed to collect and compare your photo before releasing your child.
Someone else collecting?They need to be on your approved list, with their own KINLOCK ID.

In the parent portal

Your KINLOCK ID

Ready on your phone for drop-off and pick-up.

Photos

Update your own and your children's photos.

Your children

Check their details and who's approved to collect.

On my way

Let the team know you're coming to collect.

Your child's information

The wristband holds an anonymous ID only, never your child's name or medical details. Those stay in KINLOCK, visible only to church staff whose role needs them.
