Is your association or group ready for the busy months ahead? Or are you still struggling with spreadsheets, overdue payments, and endless "who still needs to pay?" messages?
For many small associations and volunteer groups, alongside all the enjoyable activities, there is also a lot of administration involved. Think about membership fees, joint purchases, or organising an outing. It's often fun, but to be honest: managing finances can quickly become more stressful than you would like, especially when you’re doing it alongside your work or family.
That’s where Potje can help. It’s a simple way to manage joint expenses in a clear way without constantly chasing people. Whether you lead a neighbourhood association, support a choir, or oversee a sports team, Potje provides you with the tools to collect contributions, track payments directly, and keep everything transparent. This way, you spend less time on finances and more time on what really matters: creating something beautiful together.
Here you can read how small associations and groups can benefit from Potje:
1. Seamless contributions 💸
No more hassle with cash or complicated payment requests. With Potje, you create a pot, and members or participants pay directly. Everyone sees what has already been paid, and you have to do less calculating and chasing.
2. Smarter activity planning 💪
Whether it’s a neighbourhood barbecue, a Christmas gathering, or a small tournament, activities often require a budget. With Potje, you can raise money in advance so that you can shop without worries, rent a venue, or arrange materials.
3. Materials and resources ⚽
Many groups have fixed costs. Think of a theatre group needing set pieces, a sports team with new balls, or a choir buying sheet music. With Potje, you divide costs fairly, and everyone has insight into what is covered.
4. Outings and meetings ✈️
A day out or a joint trip is always nice, but often payment needs to be made in advance. By creating a pot in good time, you can spread costs over multiple weeks or months. This way, no one is suddenly faced with surprises.
5. Daily convenience ✨
After a long day, you don't feel like searching for your wallet or receipts. With Potje, you can easily pay for group purchases via your phone. Think about pizzas during a rehearsal night or materials for a workshop. It’s quickly sorted, and you have time left for socialising.
