A treasurer's view of the whole club.

Most club treasurers reconcile a bank statement against a group chat. RinkTracker gives the money a system: subs collect themselves by Direct Debit, every pound lands in one ledger, and the committee sees the season's finances at a glance.

Failed payments retry themselves; every payment lands in the club ledger.

Direct Debit

No. 04

Set the plan. Stop the chasing.

Connect GoCardless, put a family on a plan, and the monthly subs collect themselves. Failed payments retry automatically, cancellations and chargebacks reverse cleanly in the ledger, and the awkward poolside conversation about last month's fees simply stops happening.

  • Direct Debit mandates and collections via GoCardless
  • Automatic retries on failed payments
  • Webhook-reconciled: what GoCardless collected is what the ledger says
How subs travel

Set the plan once. Collection, retries and reconciliation happen on their own.

The ledger

No. 04
Before / after

A season of receipts becomes one ledger the whole committee can read.

Every pound, one ledger.

Subs, invoices, tournament fees, shop orders — every payment in the club flows into a single ledger with a clear status. Enrolments tie players to their plans, so "who still owes for March" is a filter, not an investigation.

  • One payments ledger across subs, invoices, events and the shop
  • Enrolments and subscription plans per player

Planning

No. 04

Budgets that meet reality.

Set season budgets, watch forecasts track against real collections, and keep VAT tidy as you go. Committee night stops being an argument about a spreadsheet nobody trusts.

  • Budgets and forecasts against actual collections
  • VAT handled on the transactions that carry it
Committee night

Forecast against actual collections — an answer, not an argument.

Kit money that books itself.

The team shop sells jerseys, socks and clinic places with sizes, variants and stock — and every order posts straight into the same ledger as the subs. One place for club money means one answer when someone asks where it went.

  • A branded club shop with variants and stock
  • Orders posted automatically to the finance ledger
