Instructions for Group Administrators

As a Group Administrator, you have full control over your group’s space. Here’s how to manage everything:

1. Getting Started: The Dashboard

  • Your Hub: The Dashboard gives you a quick overview of your group: total members, active funds, and upcoming birthdays.
  • Customize Your Space: You can upload a group logo from the Dashboard. Click the “Upload Logo” button to select an image from your computer. This logo will appear in the header for all your members.

2. Managing Your Members

Go to the “Members” tab to see your full member list. On mobile, holding the phone horizontally (landscape mode) is advised for adding members.

  • To Add a Single Member:
    1. Click the “Add Member” button.
    2. Fill in their details in the form that appears. You must set a temporary password for them, which they will be required to change on their first login.
    3. Click “Add Member” to save.
  •  
  • To Add Multiple Members at Once (Import from CSV):
    1. Click the “Import from CSV” button.
    2. Prepare a CSV file with the column headers: Name, Email, and Telephone.

    4. Click “Create Fund”.
  •  
  • To View a Fund and Add Contributions:
