Detailed Review
verein.cloud is provided by Tineon AG, Uferpromenade 5, 88709 Meersburg, entered in the Freiburg commercial register under HRB 706986. The imprint names Jean-Claude Parent as board member and lists a supervisory board.
The product is organised in three tiers. The Free tier includes member management, lists and mail merge, departments, users and roles and a digital application form; PRO adds dues, reminders and donations; MAX adds the full app.
Tiers and prices
Free costs 0 EUR with no payment data needed. PRO costs 19.90 EUR per month with a 12-month term paid annually (238.80 EUR upfront) after a 30-day trial that ends automatically. MAX costs 29.90 EUR per month (358.80 EUR per year) and adds the verein.cloud app, while the Free tier includes a lighter app.
Finance bookkeeping is an add-on to any tier, including Free, with chart of accounts, receipts, bank and PayPal import, cash book, invoices and e-invoice, BWA, EÜR and balance sheet, and tax-advisor and DATEV handover, according to the vendor.
Data handling
The privacy statement we read covers the website only and names Vercel and Supabase for delivery and back-end functions. It states that it does not describe processing inside the club software, so the hosting location of member data is not confirmed from the pages reviewed.
Where it fits
The free tier is a low-risk way to test member imports. Dues handling and donations need PRO.
Limitations to Consider
The hosting location of member data inside the software is not stated on the pages reviewed. Dues, reminders and donations need PRO, and the app needs MAX. Annual payment is due upfront and the pages are German-language.
Who Should Use Verein.cloud
Small German clubs that want free member records first and dues and bookkeeping later.
