Modern association members spot every billing slip-up. A missed dues charge forces finance to chase cards, pulls staff off high-value work, and makes members question your reliability. However, recurring payment processing with Glue Up + Sage Intacct fixes those weak spots.
Sage Intacct, one of the most trusted cloud ERPs for associations and chambers, joins Glue Up’s finance module to schedule every invoice, apply automatic retries, and book revenue in real time. The two systems sync results to live dashboards so finance and engagement data stay in perfect step.
If you’re already using our financial management software, extend its reach in minutes—contact your Glue Up manager to add the Sage Intacct integration, flip the toggle, and watch next month’s dues run, retry, and reconcile more smoothly.

Key Takeaways
The Glue Up + Sage Intacct integration automates recurring invoicing tasks for dues, renewals, and sponsorships.
Invoices and payments sync directly into Sage Intacct with identifiers like class, location codes, and tax details intact.
Finance teams can maintain accurate, audit-ready records without manual reconciliations or re-keying.
Members gain clear visibility into invoices and receipts through Glue Up’s member portal and MyGlue app.
Automatic GL posting and dimension mapping keep financial reports current and consistent across both systems.
Member Trust Starts with Friction-Free Finance
Recurring payment processing only earns loyalty when every step feels invisible. Industry data shows 11% of online subscription charges fail on the first try, yet platforms with intelligent retry automation recover about 70 % of that involuntary churn.
Glue Up’s association management software pairs Sage Intacct’s automatic payment software with our CRM, campaign, event, and finance modules, tightening the entire dues-collection loop inside one association management platform.
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
Smart Lists for Precise Segmentation — Finance teams automate membership dues collection by filtering members by renewal month, engagement score, or overdue balance, then sending laser-focused reminders.
Personalized Email Reminders — Campaign templates merge names, plan tiers, and exact balances, making every nudge part of a member-first engagement strategy.
Real-Time Dashboards — The finance module and Sage Intacct sync so directors can see payment status alongside other key financial metrics.
Automatic GL Posting — Cleared funds land in the correct account and class without re-keying, keeping recurring billing for associations audit-ready. The integration also supports multi-currency transactions, ensuring amounts are recorded in Sage Intacct with the correct currency and exchange rate details.
As a result, members stop asking “Did my payment go through?” and stay focused on the value you deliver.
Tip: Use Smart Lists to target your next renewal batch, then schedule personalized reminders—the right members receive accurate amounts, staff skip manual follow-ups, and on-time payments go up.
Recurring Payment Processing Keeps Finance and CRM Data in Lockstep
Manual reconciliations drain time and erode confidence. A 2024 BlackLine survey found that 69% of finance teams spend excessive hours matching data between systems.
While Sage Intacct excels at dimensional general-ledger reporting, it only sees payment totals on its own, not the member context behind them. Glue Up’s finance module bridges that gap, linking every invoice and payment to the correct member record, chapter tag, and engagement score when Sage books the transaction.
Here’s how the sync plays out:
Single Source Of Truth — Contact and transaction details stay consistent across both systems, reducing mismatched records.
Instant Invoice Sync — Invoices post to Sage with identifiers such as class and location codes intact, so chapter P&Ls stay audit-ready.
Real-Time Status Updates — When Sage marks an invoice paid, the payment status updates in Glue Up without manual follow-up.
Deposits with Fewer Errors— Cleared funds land in the right revenue and bank accounts without manual journal entries, shortening the month-end close.
Tip: Map your Sage dimensions in Glue Up’s finance settings and enable automatic GL posting to ensure transactions flow into Sage promptly and reports stay current.

Self-Service Renewals Put Members in Control and Keep Retention High
We’ve covered smarter retries and perfect ledger sync; the final lever is transparency. Members who can see, edit, and trust their billing details stay longer, yet how many still email accounting to update a card?
Glue Up fixes that limitation by embedding a subscription management tool inside the member portal and MyGlue app; once you activate the Sage Intacct add-on, that tool links to Intacct’s automatic renewal billing engine, completing the loop:
Member Portal Access — Members can log in to see their invoice history and download receipts anytime..
Auto-Renewal Settings — When Sage confirms payment, the invoice status updates in Glue Up’s finance module for internal visibility.
Proactive Reminders — Staff can send scheduled payment reminders using Glue Up Campaigns to reduce late or missed payments.
Tip: Add a “Billing” link in the member portal so members can quickly find invoices and receipts, freeing your staff from handling routine requests.
