Custom app

Two ways to get your own camp app

Give your community one dependable place to find you. Start with the standard app and be live in 4-6 weeks, or choose the custom white-label option, where your camp’s name and logo appear in the App Store and Google Play, and on every push notification.

  • ✓ We handle the build, start to finish
  • ✓ User-friendly interface for even the least tech-savvy staff to navigate
  • ✓ Your camp’s icon stays on the home screen all year

Optional Features

Three ways to do more

Available with any myCAMPapp package

Facial recognition

Save your community from sifting through hundreds of photos by using photo matching through face recognition, powered by MS Azure. On-demand reports show how many images are matched per camper, and every guardian gets photos of their campers automatically saved in their own album.

Two-way SMS

Give your community direct access to a dedicated number where admins can respond back to parents and guardians directly without needing to share personal cell phone numbers. Replies are flagged and color-coded in your portal, with optional email alerts so you never miss a message.

Check-in / Check-out

A dedicated attendance module for pickups and drop-offs. Each guardian gets a secret verification code, alongside license, visual, and placard checks. Early-checkout requests can be made, bus attendance is supported, and every report is time-stamped with the exact time and admin who made an update.

FAQ

Questions camp directors ask

Everything you need to know before your demo

How long does it take to get our app live?
Depending on your plan, you can be up and running within a few weeks of signing your contract. Our team handles the app buildout and ongoing maintenance on both Google Play and the App Store. You don’t touch a line of code.
How do parents and guardians use the app?
Push notifications can be viewed directly from a phone’s lock screen (or within the app) which increases engagement with your communications. Plus, parents and guardians enjoy having photos, updates, and alerts in one familiar place, instead of digging through emails to find the details they need.
We already use a registration system. Does it still work?
Absolutely. myCAMPapp connects natively with CampSite, and also integrates with CampBrain, CampDoc, CampMinder, and RegPak, so your rosters, sessions, and groups sync automatically with no double data entry.
Who builds and maintains the app?
On the standard plan, the myCAMPapp team builds your app and handles updates. For white-label apps, you’ll complete yearly updates via your Apple Developer account.
What does it cost?
Pricing starts at $200 per month when billed annually. Schedule a demo and we’ll put together a quote tailored to your program.
Is training included?
Yes, you and your team get onboarded and trained within the first month of launch by CampSite’s expert team.
Is there a white-label app option?
Yes. With the white-label option, your app is published under your camp’s own name and logo, so families find you by searching your brand in the Apple App Store and Google Play, and your name appears on every push notification you send.
I have 10 different programs under one brand. Can myCAMPapp work for me?
Yes. Depending on your preference and scenario, we’ll determine if your app build should be built as one or multiple apps.
I have over 50+ locations that need to use myCAMPapp under one brand name. Is this possible?
There’s an enterprise, multi-location option that’s created for your unique scenario so you can offer your customers a more sophisticated look and feel, and an app that’s consistent across every location.
Does myCAMPapp work for programs other than summer camp?
myCAMPapp supports year-round, weekend, and evening programs during the school year, as well as academic or auxiliary programming at establishments such as zoos, museums, schools, daycares, and community centers. We help keep parents and guardians connected anywhere, in real time.
Is there a setup cost?
Depending on your plan, there is a $500 or $1000 one-time implementation fee.
My budget is limited. What are my options?
The standard option may be a great fit for you. It costs less than the white-label option yet you still get an app with a reliable brand-name to reach your community. You also have the option to begin on the Standard plan and upgrade to the white-label plan in the future as your business scales.
Can I see it before committing?
Of course. Schedule a free demo here and we’ll walk you through a sample camp app so you can see exactly what your community will experience. No commitment required.
