The handover test
Firetender is organised around the recurring work of the club—not around the inbox or spreadsheet of whichever volunteer happens to hold the role today.
Scattered between officers
—The member list someone keeps locally—Dues rows matched from memory—Minutes without owners or follow-up—A year-end report rebuilt from scratchKept in Firetender
✓One current member history✓Previewed, traceable payment records✓Decisions with owners and due dates✓Projects and decisions that survive the officer handoverThree connected loops
No module maze. The roster, money records, club meetings, service projects and open decisions contribute to the same current picture.
Open one view for member changes, outstanding dues records, upcoming meetings and service work that needs an owner.
The week in one placePlan projects, record participation and hours, register guests and carry commitments into clear follow-up tasks.
Service without the spreadsheet chaseKeep decisions, recurring responsibilities, member history and unfinished work available to the incoming team.
A handover with contextOne club, every officer
Firetender does not charge for administrator seats. Give each officer the access their role needs while everyone works from the same club history.
Keep imported payment records and member obligations clear without changing banks.
Connect the roster, meetings, decisions and communications in one club record.
Know which service work and member follow-up needs attention this week.
Learn the club from its current record, not from a retired officer’s inbox.
Smart imports, not custody
Firetender does not collect dues, hold balances or make payouts. Import records from the bank or provider you already use, preview the suggestions and approve the matches yourself.
No data is committed until an authorised officer approves the preview.
A narrower, calmer choice
Firetender is not a website builder or payment processor. It is the operational record behind the club—and its price does not grow because you keep former members, invite more officers or use another feature.

One promise, fully visible
Firetender keeps the club roster, meeting record, service participation, payment history and open committee work connected without taking control of club funds.

Useful questions
No. The monthly and annual subscriptions include the same product. Firetender does not reserve imports, reports or additional officers for a more expensive package.
No. Firetender never initiates or handles member transactions. It records and reconciles transaction data imported from the bank or provider your club already uses.
Yes. Standard member imports are included. You preview mappings, duplicates and totals before committing anything.
Clubs with 0–24 active members continue free forever. At 25 or more, the current active-member count selects the published monthly or annual price. No feature disappears.
Yes. There is no per-administrator charge. Roles and permissions keep sensitive work with the right officers.
Full organisation exports are part of the product promise. Your club history should not become a hostage to a subscription.
THE NEXT OFFICERS WILL THANK YOU.
