What sets us apart
Key features that make a difference for modern clubs and societies

Notion can store member data. However, it cannot process applications, collect payments, or automate renewals.
Event Ticketing
Sell tickets and check in attendees. Notion databases can't handle payments or generate QR codes.
Password Vault
Proper encrypted credential sharing. Please don't store passwords in Notion pages.
