STEADY MONEY
Fair plans, fair first charge, and a tidy monthly who-to-charge, who-to-chase routine.
Service or course. We email you within 24h after checkout to begin.
It is not a payment processor and takes no payments - it holds no card or provider key and never touches the net; real billing runs in your own regulated provider, and a person sends every message. No membership-growth, retention, or revenue figure is promised, and it is not legal, tax, or consumer-law advice.
If you run a class or club business, the membership math is the part that quietly leaks money and goodwill: mid-month joiners charged the wrong amount, overdue members nobody chased, renewals you forgot to send. STEADY MONEY is an offline toolkit that designs fair tiers, gets the first charge right to the cent, and turns your roster into a clear monthly worklist of who to charge and who to chase.
It runs on your own machine, holds no card and no payment key, and never touches the net. You stay in control: the tool plans and drafts, a person sends every message, and your real billing runs in your own regulated provider.

- Honest MRR reportingReports MRR, active, paused, and overdue counts straight from your real roster, with no inflated or projected figures.

- Full delivery kitAn SOP, five cadences, config and roster templates, legal and privacy notes, outreach, and paperwork so you can run it and resell it.
Who it is for and how you run it
- Built for the solo operator running a class- or club-based business who wants a tidy monthly billing routine.
- No coding required: edit the config and roster templates, run the tool, and follow the SOP.
- Validate first, then work the sorted list top to bottom, charging in your own provider and sending each drafted message yourself.
- Sell it as a one-off setup for a client, then move to a light monthly retainer where it fits.
- Five cadences and templates give you a repeatable rhythm you can reuse client after client.

- Flags accounts to escalate so nothing overdue slips through.
- Drafts welcome, failed-payment, reminder, and renewal messages for human review.
- Reports honest MRR, active, paused, and overdue counts from your real roster.

- Operators who need mid-month joins prorated correctly to integer cents and a pre-flight validator that blocks a wrong charge before it goes out.

- Service providers who want to sell membership-and-billing setup to others, using the included SOP, cadences, templates, and paperwork.
Probably skip it if…
- Anyone wanting software that actually takes payments: this is offline, holds no card or provider key, and never touches the net, while real billing runs in your own regulated provider.
- Anyone wanting fully hands-off automation: a person must send every message and run the billing in their own provider.
- Anyone expecting growth, retention, or revenue guarantees, or legal, tax, or consumer-law advice, which it does not promise or provide.
Questions
Does this take payments or store my customers' cards?
No. STEADY MONEY never touches money or cards. It holds no provider key, never connects to the net, and only plans the work and drafts messages. The actual charges happen in your own regulated payment provider.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You edit plain config and roster templates, run the validator, then run the tool and follow the SOP. The scripts are provided as-is and run locally on your computer.
Can I resell this setup to clients?
Yes. The kit is built to be sold as a one-off setup and, where it fits, continued as a light monthly retainer. The SOP, cadences, outreach, and paperwork are included to help you do that.
What about refunds and updates?
There is a fair 48-hour refund if it is not right for you. Delivery is instant after purchase, and you get the kit as described including any updates we ship to it.
