For bowling centers and league officers

League money,
handled properly.

Bowlers pay at the desk, the same as always. Everything after that is automatic — the split, the records, the payouts, and the deadlines USBC holds your league to.

Compliance

The USBC clocks, tracked for you.

Convenience

Two taps at the desk. Works offline.

Visibility

Every officer sees every account.

Accountability

Every dollar recorded twice.

How it works

Four steps, then it runs itself.

Take the payment

Two taps per bowler. Cash, card or bank transfer. Part payments and paying ahead are normal.

It splits itself

Lane fees, prize fund, USBC dues and the secretary’s stipend — separated the moment the money lands.

Everyone can see it

Bowlers see their own balance. Officers see every account, any time.

Season end pays out

Two officers approve, and the prize money goes straight to each bowler’s own account.

Compliance

Built around the rule that voids bonding.

Leagues using a third-party online service to collect league dues without league officer access risk violation of USBC Rule 17b-4 and invalidation of bonding coverage.USBC — Debit Cards, Online and Mobile Banking, §5b

What voids bonding is officers being locked out — not using a service. So: officers can always see the money, and nobody can move it alone.

You are told before a deadline passes, worst first — what threatens your bonding above what is merely late.

Payments

In by bank transfer. Out the same way.

Cards work everywhere too — nobody is forced onto anything.

Collecting

A bowler authorizes their bank once and the weekly amount is taken from then on. Or they pay at the desk each week, however they like.

Paying out

Prize money lands in each bowler’s own account. No checks to write, no envelopes at the banquet, and nobody has to turn up to be paid.

Weekly slips

Printed per bowler, with a code that opens straight to what they owe.

Autopay

One authorization, then it just happens.

Pay ahead

Held as that bowler's credit until the week it pays for.

Absent, sub, pre-bowl

Each changes what is owed, by your league's own rules.

Sweepers and side pots

Billed on their own schedule, lane fees still out first.

Team payments

One payment from a captain, split by what each member owes.

Accountability

Four things the system will not let you break.

Officers never hold the money

No cash to bank, no checks to chase, no personal liability for a float.

Every dollar is checked twice

The desk records what it took; the ledger records what arrived. A figure only one side has seen is shown as a discrepancy.

Lane fees come out first, in full

The center’s share is never reduced by a processing fee and never waits behind anything else.

The prize fund stays the prize fund

It cannot be spent on something else mid-season. It pays out to each bowler directly.

Two approvals, and a pause

A payout needs two officers and waits. Changing the destination account freezes payouts and re-opens the approvals.

Corrections, never deletions

Nothing is edited away. A mistake is fixed with an entry that points at the original, so the history stays readable.

Unpaid weeks show honestly

Assessing dues never credits the prize fund — only money that arrived does. So the balance has been true all season.

How the money splits

Your league sets its dues. Everyone pays the same.

Whatever your league votes on is the price on the board — the same number whether a bowler pays cash, card or bank transfer. Nobody is charged extra for how they paid.

Dues split into
Where it goes
Lane fees
The center. In full, and first.
Prize fund
Held for the bowlers. In full.
USBC sanction
USBC and your local association.
Running the league
The secretary’s stipend, and our fee.

Card fees come out of that last line — never the lanes, never the prize fund. A league cannot even be set up unless that portion covers them.

We are never paid out of the prize fund or out of the center’s lane fees. There is no setting that would allow it.
