Supreme handles your roster. DuesSync handles everything else.
A council runs on its people — members who stay active, brothers ready to step into leadership, and a handoff that doesn’t lose everything the last officer knew. DuesSync keeps your council engaged, led, and continuous. Automating dues is just the easiest place to start.
What we hear from councils, over and over
Councils quietly lose three things: people, knowledge, and time.*
Losing members
Attendance drifts and the same few brothers carry everything. Between meetings there's no simple way to keep members connected — a birthday note, an event reminder, a milestone celebrated — so engagement quietly fades.
Losing the playbook
The budget, the history, the contacts, the way things are done — it lives in one officer's head and one spreadsheet. When they step down, it walks out the door, and the council resets. No succession plan, no memory.
Losing hours
Chasing 2nd Notices and Knight Alerts, stuffing and mailing envelopes, chasing checks at meetings, and re-typing the same data between Supreme, Excel, and email. Hours a month on work a system should just do.
Grand Knights add a fourth: knowing whether the council is on track for Starand the Columbian Award — and exactly what’s still missing — without tallying it by hand.
* Based on what officers told us in the DuesSync surveys (Financial Secretaries, Grand Knights, and Treasurers).
How it fits together
Supreme keeps the record. DuesSync runs everything else.
Think of it as one stack: Supreme is the official record at the foundation, DuesSync is the operating layer built on top, and your members and officers use it every day. Roster flows up, forms file back — you never replace Supreme’s Member Management.
Every member gets a personalized link — no password — to:
Officers:one login for every hat · manage prospects & recruiting · see where the council stands.
Dues was never the whole point. DuesSync keeps your council engaged, led, and continuous — and automating dues is simply the easiest door to walk through first.
Broadcasts, reminders, and milestone emails keep members connected. Officer invites and one-login-for-every-hat build your leadership bench. And because every budget, record, and contact lives in one place, the next officer inherits a working council — not a mystery box. It never acts without you seeing it first, and the platform grows every month.

DuesSync is independent— built by a Financial Secretary, and not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. It complements Supreme’s Member Management; it does not replace it. “Knights of Columbus,” “Star Council,” “Columbian Award,” and form names are marks of their respective owners.
