Notifications and Payment Reminders for SHGs

Payment and meeting alerts are sent as an SMS, an email or an in-app notice. The group chooses the channel for each person and how many days ahead each alert is sent.

What is worth a message

Three alerts cover most needs.

Savings due

A note goes out before the contribution date, so members can set the money aside before the meeting and the treasurer is not left chasing on the day itself.

Loan instalment due

Someone with a repayment coming is told before the date passes, so the amount can still be brought to the meeting.

Meeting alert

Date, time and place go to everyone the group holds a number or email for.

The group sets the rhythm

Groups keep different schedules.

Days ahead

The lead time is set once. Every reminder afterwards follows it, for savings, loans and meetings alike, until the group changes it.

Channel by person

SMS goes to members with basic phones, email to the coordinator and an in-app notice to anyone who signs in.

Switched off when unwanted

A group meeting on the same weekday every week may want only the dues reminder.

What changes for the treasurer

Following up members takes much of a treasurer’s time.

Fewer calls on the day

The reminder does part of what a round of calls did the previous evening. Fewer members need to be rung.

Late payers seen sooner

Someone who has not paid after two reminders can be spoken to early in the cycle. That conversation is easier than one at year end.

Nothing typed by hand

Messages are drawn from the records the meeting is run on. Nothing is retyped.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can reminders be sent on WhatsApp?

No. This module sends by SMS, email and in-app notice. Adding a channel is separate work, and its scope is explained before you agree to it.

Who decides how many days before a reminder goes out?

The group does, and the setting is made once. Two or three days before the due date is a common choice.

Do meeting reminders reach every member?

They reach everyone whose number or email is on the member record. Anyone with no phone still has to be told another way, and that is worth planning for.
