The payment problem

Football is complicated enough without payment chasing

Different squads, different fees and a changing team sheet can turn a simple collection job into hours of volunteer admin.

The weekly match-fee chase

Players forget, messages get buried and coaches spend Monday evenings working out who still owes for the weekend.

Money slips through the gaps

Small unpaid fees across several teams quickly add up, putting pressure on pitch hire, referees and club cash flow.

Records live everywhere

Card payments, bank transfers and cash are hard to reconcile when team managers each track them differently.

One place for every fee

A simpler way to collect every football club payment

Set up the way your club already charges. GrassrootsPay brings flexible online collection and offline records together, so treasurers and coaches see the same picture.

See plans and pricing

Match and training fees

Use pay-as-you-play collection for the players involved, whether the charge covers a match, training session or tournament.

Annual or monthly subscriptions

Collect recurring player fees on a predictable schedule and make the club’s incoming revenue easier to forecast.

Cards, BACS and digital wallets

Give players and parents familiar ways to pay online, including cards, BACS, Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Cash payments

Still accept cash when it suits your club, then record it alongside online payments for one accurate account.

Built for busy volunteers

One payment system for every team in your club

Automate routine collection

Reduce repetitive reminders and give volunteers more time for coaching, fixtures and running the club.

Share responsibility

Add coaches across your teams so the right people can manage players, fixtures and payment activity.

See what has been paid

Keep online and cash records together, making it easier to follow up fairly and reconcile club income.

The result

A clearer view for the treasurer. Less chasing for every coach.

Coaches can focus on their teams while the people managing club finances work from one consistent payment record.
