February 2026 Member Portal Updates

💰 New Finances Screen

A new Finances screen is now available to help treasurers reconcile accounts. It includes four searchable tabs:

  • Stripe Transactions – View all Stripe payments to your League, filter by date, and see gross amount, fees, net amount, items included (dues, contributions), and transaction IDs.

  • Dues – See all dues payments (online and check), including total paid across local/state/national levels, payment method, notes (auto-renew, subsidy, multiple members), and transaction ID.

  • Offline Payments – Track check payments entered by your League, searchable by invoice number (MPS), with status (paid/pending), check number, and who entered the payment.

  • Contributions – View donations made during join/renew, with member name, date, and amount.

State Leagues will see slight variations, including separate tabs for local League dues and direct state members-at-large. A walkthrough recording will be available on the Member Portal Resources page.


🧠 Membership Brainstorming Series

LWVUS is launching a pilot program to collaborate with a small group of local Leagues on recruitment, engagement, and retention strategies. Participating Leagues will test ideas and help shape a membership toolkit to be shared nationally. Interested Leagues can sign up to participate or share existing resources.


📇 Roster Screen Change & Other Adjustments

In response to feedback:

  • The Last Login column has been removed from the roster screen (still available in exports and on individual contact pages).

  • Member registration answers can now be filtered by date, and long responses wrap for easier reading.

  • A verification step has been added when entering offline dues payments to help prevent accidental entries.


💬 New Groups.io Discussion GroupsBuilding on the success of the treasurers group, three new leader discussion groups have launched: membership, communications, and presidents. Invitations were sent to leaders in those roles, and additional participants can join through the portal resources page.
