DuesSyncDuesSync
Founding Council Program

Free for founding councils
through June 2027.

The full platform, every officer — FS, GK, Treasurer, Trustees. No council vote, no credit card to start.

After the founding year, it's one annual subscription sized to your roster — less than your council already spends on postage and Calling Post. No per-seat fees, no hidden charges. The standard rates are below.

Transparent Pricing

One plan. Everything included.

No bundles. No add-ons. No seat fees. Every council gets the full platform — the only variable is your roster size.

Most councils already spend more than DuesSync costs on things DuesSync replaces:

TodayCostWith DuesSync
Calling Post / One Call Now~$120 / yearIncluded
Printing, stationery, stamps, envelopes (4 cycles)~$500–800 / yearIncluded
FS time on manual work8+ hrs / monthUnder 30 min / month

Two ways in

If you want to help us build DuesSync right, join the Founding Council Program — 20 spots, free through June 2027. If you'd rather just try it, start with a 60-day trial on standard pricing. Same platform, same features, every role — just different terms.

Standard Plan · 60-Day Free Trial

Try it free for 60 days, then pay by council size

Long enough to run a full dues cycle (notice → pay → reconcile) and see the numbers for yourself. No credit card required at sign-up. Your rate is set by your active roster size at time of first payment and auto-adjusts at each annual renewal.

Member dues payments are separate from your subscription

Your subscription is what the council pays us. When members pay dues online, the money lands directly in the council's bank account (via Stripe Connect). Standard processing fees — 2.9% + $0.30 on cards, far less on ACH — are covered by the member at checkout by default. Council pays $0 unless you opt to absorb them. DuesSync never touches your council's funds.

Estimate your rate & time savings

* Projected estimates based on workflow design — manual overhead modeled at 1.5 hrs/month base plus 1 hr per 60 members, with an 80% reduction from automation. Will be updated with measured outcomes as Founding Councils complete their first dues cycle.

Where your subscription goes

Your subscription keeps the platform running and funds the roadmap — building better, smarter tools for efficient, independent councils. Not shareholder dividends, not sales commissions, not VC returns. Just tools. Founding Councils get priority input on what we build next.

How billing works

Built around how councils actually operate — not how SaaS companies prefer to collect.

📅
Anniversary Billing

Your subscription renews annually on the date of your first payment — not a fixed calendar date. No mid-year surprises.

🔄
Renews automatically

Auto-renews on your anniversary date. Tier refreshes to match your active roster — at renewal only, never mid-cycle. Pause or cancel anytime from your dashboard. Prorated refund on unused months (check refunds take 2–4 weeks to process).

Paper Check

We accept physical checks. Email admin@duessync.com for the mailing address.

💳
ACH & Card

Automated renewal via ACH or card, managed through the Financial Secretary's dashboard.
