From the team behind AssociationSphere

Introducing Rationara. Your outsourced accounting department.

AssociationSphere runs your membership. Rationara runs your books — U.S.-based nonprofit accountants who categorize every transaction, track dues and events by program, reconcile your accounts, and close your books every month.

  • Bookkeeping, done for you
    A person reviews every transaction. You answer the occasional question.
  • Dues matched to the year they cover
    On accrual, dues are recognized across the membership year they cover.
  • Every event, its own P&L
    Registrations and sponsorships set against the costs that earned them.
  • Board-ready reports, monthly
    Statement of activities, balance sheet and budget vs. actual, by program.
