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

No module maze. The roster, money records, club meetings, service activities and open decisions contribute to the same current picture.

A useful Monday-morning viewRegister guests, assign meeting duties, record attendance and turn minutes into named follow-up before the room empties.
Arrival through follow-upAttendance, activities, service, decisions and unfinished work remain in one traceable record when officers change.
Continuity for the next boardOne 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.
Import transactions, review suggested matches and chase only dues that remain outstanding.
Keep membership changes, meetings, minutes and decisions in one club history.
See what needs attention without asking four officers for four separate updates.
Join before the handover without creating another paid administrator seat.
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.

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.
