Association management for presidents in Membear

As a board

Up and running in a few steps

How to move your association forward digitally — without a big project.

  1. 1

    Start free

    Create a workspace and invite treasurer, secretary, and board members — no credit card required.

  2. 2

    Import members

    Upload existing lists via CSV. Your secretariat has a clean base right away.

  3. 3

    Share responsibilities

    Treasurer handles invoices, secretariat handles members and registration — everyone works in the same platform.

  4. 4

    Keep overview

    Member counts, open fees, and events are visible anytime — without requesting spreadsheet reports.

Before & after

Your board — before and with Membear

The board without a system — and the board with Membear.

Time saved

10+hrs/year

Fewer follow-ups and less coordination — plus 30+ hrs/year saved for treasurer and secretariat combined.

Sum of three scenarios: 10 hours

  • Overview without spreadsheet requests

    ≈ 4 hrs saved

    Without Membear

    You only want to know how many members you have — and get three different Excel versions. Open fees? “Ask the treasurer.” Wait, chase, stay unsure.

    With Membear

    Member count, open fees, events — live in Membear. No requests, no exports, no “I'll send it tomorrow.”

  • New members & fees

    ≈ 3 hrs saved

    Without Membear

    New sign-ups via WhatsApp, paper at the event, or “I'll handle it.” You find out weeks later who's officially in — if at all.

    With Membear

    Clear online sign-up, fee paid right away. The board knows who's new — without detective work.

  • Board meetings & decisions

    ≈ 3 hrs saved

    Without Membear

    Half the meeting on admin: Which Excel is current? Who maintains what? Do the AGM numbers add up? Spreadsheets, not strategy.

    With Membear

    One platform, every role, same data. You decide about the club — not about tables. Free to start, support included.

10+ hrs refer to your work as president; total board relief comes from treasurer and secretariat time saved.
