Two-counter count
After a bake sale or book fair, two counters enter the count. Both sign off, and the total locks. Everyone can see who counted.
Replaces: the scribbled tally sheet and the "I think we had about $400" memory.
Keep General, Events, Scholarships or any fund you need apart. See what is in each one.
Replaces: the spreadsheet where fundraiser money and general money get mixed together.
Each month, get a PDF with fund balances, income and expenses, and the list of counts with both signers. Add a short note.
Replaces: the late-night report built by hand before the board meeting.
Make a receipt for a family that lists each payment with its date and amount. It is optional. You add your own wording.
Replaces: the receipts you write one at a time when a parent asks.
Handover
When officers change, the new treasurer gets the full history, funds, balances and past reports in one click. You can also export everything to CSV or PDF at any time.
Replaces: the folder left in a drawer and the "who has the old files?" email chain.

We take it seriously. Each group's records are kept separate from every other group's. Corrections are added as new entries, so there is a trail of who did what. You can export everything whenever you like. Read the full details on our Data and Privacy page.
That is what the handover is for. You invite the new treasurer. They see the full history, the funds and the past reports. You can then step back to view-only or leave. Nothing is lost.

Yes, any time. Export everything to CSV and your reports to PDF. We do not lock your records in.
No online payments or ticket sales. No payroll. No tax filing. No bank feeds. Countaline is a simple record-keeping tool for the treasurer, not accounting software.
No. Member receipts are optional. If you use them, each one lists payments with date and amount, and you add your own wording. We do not give tax advice.
The first version ships by January 15, 2027. Your first year starts when your account opens, not when you pay. If we miss that date, or you change your mind before it ships, you get a full refund. You can also cancel anytime.
