Help/Getting started

Set up your church

Create your church's account and choose what it uses.

How to

1. Go to cfold.org and choose Start free.
2. Enter your church's name, your own name and email, the church's phone and city, and a password.
3. Add the church's contact email and phone, then choose your language and confirm your time zone and currency.
4. Tick the features you want. You can change them later in Settings → Features.

Good to know

• You become the church's Super Admin, the only role that can change its profile and delete data.
• Your time zone decides which day a service belongs to, so check it is right.
• CFOLD speaks English, Sinhala and Tamil. Everybody in your church sees the language you choose, and so do the prayer and testimony forms you share. A Super Admin can change it in Settings → Preferences. Some screens are still in English while translation continues.
• Every new church starts with 14 days free, with no card needed. Today shows how many days are left, and you can subscribe from Settings → Billing whenever you are ready. If the trial ends first, the account is paused and nothing is deleted.
• Already have a CFOLD login with another church? Choose Start free and sign in with it to set up a second church on the same login.
• Setup works on a phone or a laptop.
• Today, the first page you see, shows a Getting started list for the first weeks. Each step ticks itself off as you do it.
