For treasurers
Collect membership fees without forgetting reminders
Send annual invoices by email or Swiss QR bill — with TWINT payment, automatic reconciliation, and fewer follow-ups before the AGM.
Since we started using Membear, twice as many members pay on their own — without us having to follow up.

How your treasurer workflow looks with Membear — step by step.

Send invoices
By email where addresses exist — or as QR bill/PDF for members without email to print and post.
Track payments
Online payments via TWINT and zahls.ch are matched automatically. Mark bank transfers with one click.
Before the AGM: clarity
See instantly who has paid. Send reminders to the right people — not everyone.
Before & after
Your treasurer routine — before and with Membear
On the left, the daily nightmare. On the right, how it feels with Membear.
15+hrs/year
Less manual work on annual invoices, payment matching, and follow-ups — typical for an association with 80–150 members.
Sum of three scenarios: 15 hours
Sending annual invoices
≈ 8 hrs savedWithout Membear
Weekend shifts instead of club life: invoices built one by one, PDFs exported, emails copy-pasted — and still nobody knows who got theirs. Three lists, zero trust. The AGM is getting closer.
With Membear
One batch run, every member. Send by email or Swiss QR bill — one workspace, live status. Done for the day, not done for the weekend.
Reconciling payments
≈ 4 hrs savedWithout Membear
Bank statements, TWINT screenshots, and Excel on the kitchen table. Sunday night, stomach in knots. Before the AGM: panic — do these numbers even add up?
With Membear
Online payments match themselves. Bank transfer: one click. Open or paid — no basement shift before the AGM.
Questions from members
≈ 3 hrs savedWithout Membear
Your phone won't stop: “Have I paid yet?” You dig through email threads at 9 p.m. — after your real job. Volunteering feels like being on call.
With Membear
Members see invoice and status in the portal, pay with TWINT — without you. Your inbox stays quiet. You're treasurer, not helpdesk.
Estimates for volunteer treasurers; depends on member count and your previous process (spreadsheets, email, paper).
