One evening. No fairy tales.
Switching platforms is a real cost, retraining, migration, a semester of friction. Here’s exactly what moves, what doesn’t, and the plan that gets it done in an evening.
Export your roster from the old platform
Whatever you're on now, another platform, a spreadsheet, a group chat, get your member list into a CSV or a spreadsheet. Names, emails, roles, class year, status. That's the one file that matters.
Launch your chapter
The onboarding flow takes about five minutes: chapter info, branding, and your plan choice. Your chapter gets its own site on your subdomain immediately.
Bulk-import the roster
Paste rows or upload CSV straight into the console, it detects header rows, tolerates quoted cells, and handles tabs or commas. A 150-person roster lands in minutes, not an evening.
Set dues fresh
Dues start clean in GreekStack. Enter the new semester's amount, and members pay through the Stripe payment screen from then on. Historical payment records from your old system stay where they are, we don't pretend to import ledgers we can't verify.
Run one event
Pick your next real event, a social, a philanthropy, a meeting, and run it on GreekStack: tickets, check-in, the works. One event teaches the e-board more than a training doc.
Honest answers about switching
No, and we’d rather say so than fake it. Payment ledgers from other platforms come with different schemas, disputed balances, and no audit trail we can stand behind. Your roster and member details import cleanly; dues start fresh from your first GreekStack semester, and your old records stay exportable from your old platform.
One focused evening for a typical chapter: launch the site, import the roster, set dues, and send the first announcement. The retraining cost is the part nobody can eliminate, budget one e-board meeting to walk through the console together.
Yes. Launch, import a test roster, and run the interactive demo with your e-board first. You’re charged at signup for your plan, see pricing, but you can evaluate everything before inviting members.
Your data leaves with you. Roster, events, and tickets export to CSV from the console any time, no retention ransom, no “contact sales to export.” We’d rather earn the renewal.
