The options
What people compare TidyHQ with
TidyHQ's Pro plan costs A$890 a year (or A$89 a month) in Australia, and NZ$990 a year (or NZ$99 a month) in New Zealand, with a one percent service fee, a fixed transaction charge and payment-provider fees on top. Owners look elsewhere because they want their records under their own control and a system that actually fits how their committee works, not just a different number on the invoice.

How to choose a TidyHQ alternative
- 1
What the bill is tied to
TidyHQ's bill is more than the subscription. Pro adds a one percent service fee and a fixed transaction charge, plus your payment provider's own fees. Enterprise pricing for federations is quoted directly, so check what each layer adds before comparing plans side by side.
- 2
Whether your records stay yours
Ask whether your membership records live in a system you control or one you rent access to. TidyHQ holds your contacts, receipts and event history on its platform under whichever plan you pay for, and that access depends on staying subscribed.
- 3
Whether it fits your own rules
Clubs run on their own constitution, membership categories and committee steps. Check whether a system's fields and reports actually match what your society or association rules require, rather than reshaping your committee's process to fit generic membership software.
- 4
What the switch actually involves
Moving off TidyHQ starts with your own data. Contact records and configurable membership reports both export as CSV, but headers need checking on the actual export. Family links, multiple memberships and financial history usually need separate mapping before they land anywhere else.
The option that fits
Own your club's version instead of renting it
Club for Claude Code puts the same membership records in a database your club owns, run in plain language with Claude Code instead of a per-seat subscription. Enterprise DNA builds your version around how your committee actually works, brings your TidyHQ history across, and can run it for you for one setup fee plus a monthly retainer. A free version exists for a committee willing to run it themselves.

Questions
TidyHQ alternatives, answered
How much does TidyHQ actually cost once fees are added? expand_more
TidyHQ's Pro plan is A$890 a year in Australia or NZ$990 a year in New Zealand, each also available monthly. On top of that subscription, Pro adds a one percent service fee and a fixed transaction charge, plus whatever your payment provider charges separately. Enterprise pricing for federations is quoted directly rather than published.
Can we keep our existing TidyHQ records if we switch? expand_more
Yes. TidyHQ lets you export your contacts and configurable membership reports as CSV files. The headers should be checked against your actual export before anything is imported, since family links, multiple memberships and financial history usually need separate mapping to carry across cleanly.
Does an owned system still handle our own club rules? expand_more
It can flag missing evidence and check notices and deadlines against the rules recorded for your club. New Zealand officer and member evidence checks are included as a starting point, and Australian clubs need their own state and constitution rules configured before the committee reviews results.
Who runs the system once the committee changes over? expand_more
The club keeps ownership of its database and can appoint its next administrator at any time. With the managed option, Enterprise DNA operates the system, keeps agreed workflows running, and helps the next committee take over, with setup and ongoing support scoped directly.
