Every time I send the one time code to my email once signing up, it keeps saying invalid code

Complete corporate greed.

Gloo has officially abandoned any pretense of serving ministries. What started as a free resource has been changed repeatedly, and this latest update is the final straw. Not only did they gut the free tier, but now they are coming after their paying Gloo+ members.Slashing the Gloo+ credit limit from 15,000 down to a measly 5,000 credits per month—while keeping the price exactly the same—is a massive 66% reduction in value. To make matters worse, they have the nerve to charge an extra $75/month for "Powerpacks" just to get back a fraction of what we were already paying for. They claim this is to "sustain their commitment," but it is painfully obvious they care more about filling their pockets than supporting their customers. It is a classic bait-and-switch. Do not trust this company with your ministry's communication.

Hate update

Slashed 10,000 into 500, but claimed it was free.

New app is terrible, bait and switch on pricing

The new app is terrible, you have to log in, every time. Can’t stay logged in, and has to have a code from email.

Once you wait for the code and get logged in, you are very limited in what you can do, can’t even work on groups.

Plus the messaging is now useless. The ‘free for churches’ model has apparently been abandoned and now they want $50 a month just to send messages.

Shame on you for misleading and ripping off all of us churches who use (used) your service.

Texting is okay

3 stars because we schedule a broadcast/text and it doesn’t send. You open the app again later after the scheduled send time and it finally sends. Glitchy. Works if you want to babysit it.
