Create a member rate

A member rate (internally called a billing scheme) is a named package of dues and a usage-rate modifier. Every syndicate starts with a default Standard Member rate; create more when you need different terms for different groups (for example, an equity member and a renter).

  • You must be an admin (treasurer counts as admin).
  • A new syndicate already has a default Standard Member rate. You do not need to create one to start.
  • “Renter” is a common rate label, not a role.
  1. Open the syndicate and go to the Admin tab.
  2. Tap Rate schemes (under Money).
  3. Tap the Add billing scheme button (top-right).
  4. Enter the Scheme Name (the label members see; for example, Equity member, Renter, Founder).
  5. Enter the Amount (dues), the Every count (for example, 1), and the Unit (Day(s), Month(s), or Year(s)). Set the amount to 0 if this rate has no periodic dues.
  6. Choose a Usage Rate Modifier type:
    • None (base rate): this rate pays the asset’s base rate with no adjustment.
    • Fixed offset: adds or subtracts a fixed amount (e.g. +40 or -20).
    • Percentage: scales by a percentage (e.g. -25 for a 25% discount).
    • Override: replaces the asset’s base rate outright.
  7. Enter the Modifier value required by the selected type.
  8. Tap Create Scheme.

The scheme is saved. It appears on every member’s detail tile and on the Asset rates per-scheme rate table.

New members are assigned to the default scheme automatically. To change which scheme is the default:

  1. Tap the Make default scheme icon on the scheme you want.
  2. Confirm in the dialog. The previously-default scheme loses its default badge.
  • You cannot delete a scheme that is currently the default. Use Make default on another scheme first.
  • Deleting a scheme with members prompts to reassign them to the default scheme automatically.
