Collect subs without losing a slice of every payment.
Subs go straight into your club’s own account. We never hold your money and we never take a cut of it. We charge one small amount a month instead — and under £10,000 a year, nothing at all.
How it works
- The money is yours from the start. It lands in your club’s own account, not ours.
- Everyone pays the same way every month. By card, or by Direct Debit if you would rather.
- You can see who has paid. Against the squad you already have, not a spreadsheet you keep separately.
- Nobody has to chase. Reminders go out on their own.
Why fees exist at all
Every online payment carries a charge. That is true wherever you collect — it is what the card networks and the banks charge for moving the money, and no app can make it go away.
What differs is what the app adds on top. Most club apps take a slice of every payment you collect. So the more your club grows, the more they take.
We do not take a slice. Your payments go through your club’s own account at its own rate, and we charge the club one flat amount a month. That amount does not grow with each payment — it only moves when your club moves into a bigger band.
What that looks like for a real club
A club with 100 players paying £20 a month collects £24,000 a year, across about 1,200 separate payments. Here is what a year of fees costs, all in:
| How you collect | Fees for the year | Per player |
|---|---|---|
| A typical club app | £840 | £8.40 |
| lekkin, paid by card | £648 | £6.48 |
| lekkin, paid by Direct Debit | £288 | £2.88 |
Figures include the charge the bank or card network takes, which you pay wherever you collect. Direct Debit is cheaper than card because the charge is a few pence rather than a percentage.
Who pays — the club, or the parents?
That is your choice, and plenty of clubs do it either way. But it is worth being straight about one thing first.
Fees do not vanish when you pass them on. They move to your families. If your club pays nothing towards fees today, it is because a hundred households are covering them instead — a few pence at a time, every month, without most of them noticing.
The point of the table above is not that we are free. It is that there is less to pay in the first place. On the club in that example, a year of fees falls from £840 to £288. So the club can pick up the whole lot — every penny, for every player — for less than its families are paying between them right now.
And if you would rather keep passing it on, your parents simply pay less.
What the club pays
Based on how much you collect in a year. Prices include VAT.
| Subs collected in a year | What the club pays |
|---|---|
| Under £10,000 · Most small clubs | Free |
| £10,000 – £29,999 | £4 a month |
| £30,000 – £69,999 | £12 a month |
| £70,000 or more | £29 a month |
The band is worked out from what you have actually collected over the past year, so a club that grows moves up on its own and a club that shrinks moves back down. It is checked once a month: it goes down straight away, and only goes up after two months in a row, with a month’s notice. A change applies from your next bill, and nothing you have already paid changes. Nothing to ask for, and nothing to remember.
What stays free
Collecting subs is an add-on. The football side — teams, players, fixtures, availability and match recording — is free and always included, whether you collect subs through us or not.
