Practical guides for stronger groups

Playbooks for the situations community groups face most often: building funds, savings cycles, events and member communication.

Start with the basics

Set up your group, define clear roles and agree on how contributions will be recorded before the first shilling arrives.

  • Choose admins and treasurers
  • Agree contribution cycles
  • Tell members how receipts work

Run transparent campaigns

A clear goal, regular updates and visible progress keep members motivated and reduce questions.

  • Set a specific goal and deadline
  • Share progress at every milestone
  • Send reminders before the deadline

Grow member engagement

Use the channels members already have. SMS works for everyone, and the app adds convenience for smartphone users.

  • Mix SMS and in-app updates
  • Recognise consistent contributors
  • Close every cycle with a report

Bring your group’s finances together
