Understanding Split Types

Choose between per-player dues and split-even dues based on how you charge your team members.

Per-Player Dues

With per-player dues, each member owes the full amount you specify. This is the most common type for team fees.

Example:

You set a $500 team fee and add 10 players. Each player owes $500. Your total collection goal is $5,000.

When to use per-player dues:

  • Season registration fees (each player pays $500)
  • Uniform costs (each player pays $75 for their uniform)
  • Tournament entry fees (each participant pays $50)
  • Individual equipment or clinic fees

Split-Even Dues

With split-even dues, you specify a total amount that gets divided equally among all members. Each person owes their share.

Example:

You set a $500 total cost and add 10 players. Each player owes $50 (their split). Your total collection goal is $500.

When to use split-even dues:

  • Field rental costs shared by the team ($800 total, split 16 ways = $50 each)
  • Coach or referee fees divided among participants
  • Team equipment or supplies (balls, cones, first-aid kit)
  • End-of-season party or group gift

Note:

If you add or remove members after creating a split-even dues item, GetDues will automatically recalculate each person’s share.

How members see split types

Members don’t see labels like “per-player” or “split-even.” Instead, they see:

  • Per-player: “Team Fee: $500 due”
  • Split-even: “Field Rental: $50 due (your share)”

Both types appear the same in reminders and the parent portal — members just see what they owe.
