School Group Payment Problems
Cash and Checks in Backpacks
Field trip money arrives as crumpled bills in envelopes — when it arrives at all. Someone counts it by hand, someone drives it to the bank, and someone updates the spreadsheet. GetDues moves it all online and records every payment automatically.
Every Event Is a Separate Collection
Fall fundraiser, book fair, field trips per grade, spirit wear, teacher-appreciation week — each one is its own envelope system and its own spreadsheet. GetDues puts every collection in one portal per family.
Treasurer Turnover
The books live in one volunteer's personal spreadsheet, and every June the handoff starts from scratch. GetDues keeps the full payment history in one account the next treasurer simply inherits.
Reconciling at Midnight
Matching Venmo screenshots, checks, and cash against a class list at 11pm before the board meeting. GetDues tracks every fee as it's paid, so the report is one export away.

Collect PTA Fees Without Envelopes in Backpacks
GetDues gives PTA and PTO treasurers one place to collect every school-group payment — annual PTA membership dues, field trip fees, fundraiser payments, spirit wear orders, and teacher-appreciation fund contributions. Each family gets a payment link showing exactly what they owe, and every PTA fee is recorded the moment it lands, so the treasurer's ledger is always board-meeting ready. No more counting crumpled bills from a backpack envelope, no more "did you get my check?" emails. Whether your school calls it a PTA, PTO, PTSA, or booster committee, GetDues collects the fees, sends the reminders, and keeps a clean audit trail for the next volunteer who takes over the books.
