Simple for your team. Powerful for your ministry.

Your staff already lives in Pushpay. Our integration keeps volunteer screening there too — no second system to log into, no spreadsheet to reconcile.

One central dashboard for every check

Manage every background check in your church from one place. Sort and filter by status, volunteer, or date, and flagged profiles are surfaced for review — so nothing slips through while your team is busy with everything else.

Answers right on the profile

Pull up a volunteer in Pushpay and see whether they’re cleared — and when their background check expires — before they ever step into the classroom.

The right access for the right people

Five permission levels let you decide who can order checks, who can view results, and who sees only clearance status — so sensitive information stays with the people who need it.

🏆 More Features Than Any Other Pushpay Integration

Most background check integrations stop at ordering a check and sending back a result. Ours gives you a central dashboard to manage every background check in your church — sorted by status, volunteer, or date, with flagged profiles surfaced and expiration dates visible at a glance.

The Power of 2™: Screening + Training

A background check shows someone’s past. Training protects your future. SecureSearch and Safeguard from Abuse™ give Pushpay churches both halves of volunteer protection from one team that knows your account.

âś“
Comprehensive background checks
County searches (7 years), federal courts, sex offender registry, driving history, drug screening, and verifications — customized to your due diligence, budget, and risk tolerance.
âś“
Every record reviewed by a person
Over 1 billion criminal records searched with alias matching, and every hit validated by FCRA-certified staff before it reaches you.
âś“
Safeguard from Abuse™ training
Engaging video training that teaches your team to recognize grooming, respond to disclosures, and build a culture predators avoid.
âś“
A real person who knows your church
A dedicated team answers your calls and emails promptly — not a ticket queue.
Safeguard from Abuse

Background checks are not enough. 95% of predators have no criminal record.

If you work with kids, you need this training. Sex offenders are often active for many years before being discovered.

California Churches

Using Pushpay in California? AB 506 applies to your ministry.

California’s AB 506 covers churches and ministries that serve minors — children’s ministry, youth group, camps, and after-school programs. It sets three requirements, and only one of them is a background check.

Fingerprint Live Scan

Administrators, employees, and regular volunteers must be fingerprinted through the California DOJ and FBI.

Mandated reporter training

Everyone in a covered role must be trained to recognize and report child abuse and neglect.

Written policies

Your church must adopt written abuse prevention and reporting policies, including a two-adult rule.

A “regular volunteer” is generally anyone 18 or older who works with children more than 16 hours a month or 32 hours a year — which describes most Sunday school teachers, nursery volunteers, and youth leaders.

Where Pushpay and SecureSearch fit: Live Scan is completed at a DOJ-certified Live Scan location. From inside Pushpay, you order the searches that close the gaps a fingerprint-only check leaves — sex offender registry, county court records, current case dispositions, and driving records for anyone who transports kids. Safeguard from Abuse™ covers the training and policy requirements.

What Pushpay Churches Say

Real churches using SecureSearch inside Pushpay.

“It’s like night and day.”

“The integration with Pushpay has proven to be extremely invaluable. It allows us to swiftly access profiles and instantly check if a volunteer has been cleared, as well as view the expiration date of their background check. When we compare this year’s experience to the previous one, it’s like night and day.”

— Lesley D., Administrative Assistant • Bayside Chapel

“Everything flows directly through the system.”

“We’ve been working with SecureSearch since 2022 and have consistently received prompt and reliable support. Their team is always accessible, which makes resolving any issues so much easier. We use SecureSearch through our Pushpay ChMS — everything flows directly through the system, making it easy to review results at a glance.
