Great Bookkeeping. Dues Collection Is Someone Else's Feature.
MoneyMinder positions itself as "where nonprofit treasurers go for peace of mind" — real accounting software for PTOs, HOAs, teams, boosters, and churches, at $299/year. But its member-facing payment collection runs through a bundled Cheddar Up Team Edition store, not a native reminders-and-portals system. GetDues leads with dues collection itself — reminders, payment portals, and installments — free for one team.
Start Collecting Dues in 3 Easy Steps
Create Your Team
Set up your team in under a minute. Add your logo, set dues amounts, and customize payment options.
Add Your Members
Upload your existing roster as a CSV or share a signup link — parents register themselves. Everyone gets their own payment portal to see what they owe.
Collect Payments
Members pay via Venmo, Zelle, PayPal, or card and bank transfer (Pro). You track everything in one dashboard.
Where MoneyMinder Leads With Accounting, Not Collection
MoneyMinder is genuinely strong nonprofit accounting software. Here's where collecting dues from members gets less direct.
Accounting-First, Not Collection-First
MoneyMinder's own homepage tagline is "Where Nonprofit Treasurers Go for Peace of Mind" — its core product is budgeting, bank reconciliation, and compliance reporting. Collecting money from members isn't the product itself; it runs through a separate, bundled store.
Dues Collection Runs Through a Bundled Third-Party Store
MoneyMinder includes a "MoneyMinder Store powered by Cheddar Up" for online payments, rather than a native payment-request or reminder system built into the product. Setting up dues collection means configuring a separate Cheddar Up storefront, not a purpose-built dues flow.
Flat $299/Year, Even for One Small Team
MoneyMinder's published pricing is a single $299/year plan — the same cost whether you're a national booster club or one team's treasurer just getting started. GetDues is free for 1 team and 25 members, with no credit card required.
No Automatic Per-Member Payment Reminders
We couldn't find a documented feature for automatic email or SMS reminders to individual members with an unpaid balance — MoneyMinder's reminder-adjacent tools are membership and donor management, not a due-date reminder cadence. GetDues Pro sends automatic reminders at five points around every due date until a member pays.
Built for the Job of Collecting Dues
Not accounting software with a payment store bolted on
Automatic Reminders on a Real Cadence
Email and SMS reminders fire automatically at 7 days before, 1 day before, and 1, 7, and 14 days after each due date — then stop the moment a member pays.
Native Payment Portals
Every member gets their own payment portal showing exactly what they owe — no separate storefront to configure.
Installment Plans for Any Single Team
Break a season fee into scheduled installments on GetDues Pro, built directly into the dues flow.
Automatic Even-Split Dues
Split shared costs evenly across your roster automatically. Add or remove a member and the math updates itself.
Real-Time Payment Dashboard
See exactly who's paid, who's mid-installment, and who's overdue at a glance.
GetDues vs MoneyMinder

| Free tier | 1 team, 25 members — forever free | Free plan exists but can't record transactions without the paid plan |
| Native dues collection (built into the product) | Yes | Via bundled Cheddar Up Team Edition store, not native |
| Automatic per-member payment reminders | Yes | Not found in published feature list |
| Installment / payment plans | Yes | Not found in published feature list |

Real Example:
A booster club treasurer needs to collect a $150 fee from 40 families and remind the families who haven't paid yet. On MoneyMinder, that means a $299/year subscription, then setting up the bundled Cheddar Up storefront for the actual payment collection — reminders to individual unpaid families aren't a documented native feature. On GetDues, the same job is the product itself: add the roster, set the due, and automatic email/SMS reminders go out to whoever hasn't paid — free for one team.
