Sound familiar?

Renewal emails go unanswered and membership quietly lapses.

Reunion RSVPs trickle in through several channels and the caterer needs a number.

Each chapter runs its own group chat and the national office can’t see any of it.

Members ask the same questions about events and benefits again and again.

What MsgOrb does for alumni and professional associations

Real workflows, running today — not a feature wish-list.

Dues that renew themselves

Members pay once and their card is charged every year, with a receipt on WhatsApp. Members who haven’t paid get two reminders, then nothing more.

Reunions and conferences

Free RSVPs or paid tickets, with the entry pass on WhatsApp and door check-in from any phone.

Chapters on one account

Each chapter or committee is its own group with its own leaders as sub-admins, all on the association’s number.

Scholarship and building funds

Run a fundraiser with a goal and its own page that members pass on in their groups, with receipts on WhatsApp.

Every message comes from your organization’s own WhatsApp Business number, and replies land in your MsgOrb inbox. If the person messaged you in the last 24 hours it goes as a reply (Meta includes 1,000 free a month per number); otherwise it goes as a Meta-approved message, which you add in one click. Anyone who replied STOP is never messaged.

Choose monthly or yearly, set the price, and send each member their link.

3

Plan your next event

Create the event, share the RSVP link, and the passes and reminders go out on WhatsApp.

Keeping members engaged between events

Most associations hear from members twice a year: at renewal and at the big event. A short WhatsApp update from the association’s own number keeps the connection alive in between, and members can reply with a question in the same chat.

Unlike a members’ group chat, every message goes privately to each person, so nobody’s number is shared and nothing gets lost in a busy thread.

Renewals without the reminders

With Membership Dues, a member pays once and the card is charged automatically each period. A declined card triggers one WhatsApp notice with a link to update it. Lapsed memberships become the exception rather than the rule.

Common questions

MsgOrb runs on the official WhatsApp Business Platform — see the full FAQ for more.

How do automatic dues work?

Each member pays the first period on a secure Stripe page and their card is charged every month or year after. MsgOrb’s fee is 2% + $0.50 per payment, added on top and paid by the member. The money goes straight to the association’s own Stripe account.

Can each chapter run its own messages?

Yes. Each chapter is a group, and its leaders can be sub-admins. Everything goes out from the association’s one WhatsApp number.

Can we sell tickets to a gala or conference?

Yes. Guests pay by card when they RSVP, the pass arrives on WhatsApp, and your team scans it at the door. The booking fee is 2% + $0.50 per ticket, paid by the guest.

Can members who live abroad get messages?

Yes. WhatsApp works in every country. Meta’s fee per message depends on the member’s country; see the WhatsApp pricing calculator.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Up to 60 members free, then plans start at $19.99 a month for 200 members. Plans never limit groups or messages.
