    Crowded

    Score8.2 out of 10
    N/ACrowded.me is a banking service designed specifically for clubs, groups, and their members. Traditionally, banks have compartmentalized their customers into consumers and businesses and neglected the hundreds of billions in cash flow that exists between B2B and B2C. Crowded aims to be a one-stop-shop platform for these 'crowds' encompassing payments, banking, reporting, taxation, and organizational management.

    Crowded
    Crowded is very well suited for fraternities, or any non-profit community groups really, that have a centralized fund and rely on members purchasing equipment and materials individually. Any company that requires reimbursements and has to manage dues from numerous members should take advantage of this free application, as it provides a really easy way to manage the finances of an organization

    The software which is web-based offers our employees access the portal for reporting, credit card processing remotely. This feature has been very useful during the current Covid environment.

    • They're too big of a company, each division seems to know only about their own area to such a specific degree that if we make an inquiry about how another division integrates with whoever we're talking to, we're told to contact the other team.
    • Constantly finding out there is yet another team that we need to work with to troubleshoot an issue.

    We were using GreekBill before to manage our funds and dues, and it was very outdated and unhelpful. Crowded was much more simple, easy to use, and had way more functions.

    First Data is competive on its rate. Quality is acceptable, but not good compared to its competitors mentioned above.
