Bloomily vs. iCampPro

iCampPro in its own words

iCampPro says it "offers easy online camp registration" with tools for daily operations (iCampPro). It comes from the makers of iClassPro. Its about page says the iCampPro story "started in 2019," when iClassPro partnered with a large summer camp. The same page speaks to day, overnight and family camps (About iCampPro). The homepage names overnight, faith-based, youth and mission-driven camps.

The homepage describes "flexible billing, autopay options, and real-time online and in-person payments." It also describes "flexible payment plans with scheduled payment tasks." For health, it lists digital health records, medication management, incident analysis and detailed access controls. Its camp store covers camper spending accounts, vendor shipments and inventory tracking. Families hear from camp through targeted emails and text alerts sent from a communications dashboard (iCampPro). Its pricing page lists camper groups, cabins and friend groups among plan features. It also lists add-on modules, including Attendance, Point of Sale, Staff Management and a Media App (iCampPro pricing).

Where Bloomily fits a day camp better

Bloomily is built around the day camp week. Families choose weeks, counselors run groups, and parents follow along in the app.

Weeks with their own capacity and price. Families register from your camp's page and pay a deposit. Each week has its own capacity, and a full week keeps a waiting list (Bloomily for camps). A family picks exactly the weeks it wants, and each week keeps its own price. Sibling discounts, early-bird prices and promo codes apply at checkout (Bloomily camp registration).

Money on one family balance. Deposits come in at registration. The balance bill is made for you, due the Friday before the week (Bloomily features). Families can also pay in full or use a payment plan. Weeks and add-ons such as before care, after care or lunch land on one family balance, with one autopay (Bloomily programs).

Check-in from a counselor's phone. Counselors check campers in and out from the staff app on iPhone (Bloomily camp registration). Families can check in at a kiosk with a PIN, or on their own phone (Bloomily for camps).

Photos and messages by group. Campers sit in groups, and counselors share a photo album with each group (Bloomily camp registration). Families see their group's album in the parent app on iPhone or Android (Bloomily for parents). Every photo respects each family's sharing preferences (Bloomily photos). Messages arrive translated into each parent's language, and replies come back in yours (Bloomily communication).

What to check if you rely on iCampPro's modules

iCampPro's pricing page builds a price from a plan, add-on modules and a fee per camper registration. Test the jobs you would add a module for.

• Check-in. Its pricing page compares plans and lists an Attendance add-on module. Ask which plan your camp needs for counselor check-in on a phone, with your pickup list.
• Photos. It also lists a Media App add-on module. Ask what families see in it, and whether parents see only photos of their own child.
• Health. iCampPro describes medication management and incident analysis. Bloomily's camp forms collect health notes, emergency contacts, pickup people and waivers (Bloomily camp registration). If your nurse gives medications every day, ask both to show that routine.
• Overnight sessions and the store. If you run cabins and friend groups, or a camp store with spending accounts, test those with your real data.

Moving from iCampPro to Bloomily

Bring the list you keep today, as it is. AI help does the reading. That can be a spreadsheet, another system's export, a PDF or a photo of a paper list. It reads children with their birthdays, allergies, dietary notes and medical notes. Nothing saves until you approve it.

When you are ready, send each family one invite. Their child is already on their account. Keep your old system running beside Bloomily as long as you like (Switching to Bloomily).

Questions to ask in both demos

• Which plan or module covers counselor check-in on an iPhone, with an authorized pickup list?
• What do families see in the photo app, and can parents see only photos of their own child?
• For a weekly day camp, is any registration fee charged per week booked or per camper per season?
• Can a deposit be taken at registration, with the balance charged automatically before the week?
• How are capacity and waiting lists set for each week of a multi-week day camp?
• Can parents reply to messages, and do messages reach each family in their own language?

Which one fits your camp

Choose Bloomily when your day camp runs by the week and you want registration, deposits, check-in and group photos working together. If your camp runs overnight sessions with a busy camp store, iCampPro's pages speak to that. See Bloomily for camps and Bloomily's camp pricing.
