Every duty covered, without the chasing.
Families pick their own shifts from one link. DutyHouse reminds them, tracks each household’s quota and works out levies and refunds, so your volunteer coordinator gets their weekends back.
Everything unlocked for 90 days. No card needed. Hosted in Sydney.
Then from $290 a year for up to 150 families: under $2 a family. Or stay on the Free plan.

One link. Families sign themselves up.
Build a roster from your fixture in minutes, then share one link by email, text or a QR code at the canteen. Families choose a shift on their phone and get a confirmation with a calendar invite and a reminder before the day.
- Places per shift, age groups and team duties
- Booking cut-offs, swaps and waiting lists
- Print it, put it on a screen, or email it to everyone rostered on
Every family knows where they stand.
Each household gets its own private page: how many hours or shifts they’ve done, what they’ve booked, and the shifts that still need someone, with one tap to book. No app, no login, no “how many have we done?” emails.
Remind the families who are behind. Only them.
See at a glance who hasn’t done their share, counting the shifts they’ve already booked. Send a friendly reminder with their numbers and the open shifts, or let DutyHouse send them on a schedule. Nobody is reminded twice in a week.
Duty levies and refunds, worked out for you.
Set your policy once: hours or shifts per family, exemptions, a levy for families who don’t volunteer and refunds for those who do. DutyHouse keeps a running tally for every household and builds the refund batch and the bank file for your treasurer.
The whole season on one calendar.
Game days, committee meetings, licence renewals and fundraisers side by side. Filter it down to what you need, and decide who on your committee can see it.
And the things you only notice when they’re missing.
Working with Children Checks
Record each volunteer’s check, verify it with the state register, and get warned before it expires. Shifts that need a check only take people who have one.
Game day on your phone
Today’s shifts at a glance, one tap to mark people as here, and a call button when someone hasn’t shown.
Bring your families with you
Import a spreadsheet or an export from PlayHQ, GameDay, Elvanto or Planning Center. DutyHouse groups people into households for you.
Swaps without the group chat
Families cancel or swap from their confirmation email, up to the cut-off you set. Waiting lists fill gaps by themselves.
Your words, your rules
Call them families or households, duties or jobs. Set quotas in hours or shifts, exemptions, levies and refunds the way your committee decided.
Next season in a few clicks
Roll everything over: dates shift by a year, age groups move up, and last season stays on record, read-only.
Up and running this afternoon.
Set up your organisation
Your name, your email and two quick questions. Start from a template for sport, schools or churches.
Bring in your families
Import a spreadsheet or your registration export, or simply let families appear as they sign up.
Share the link
Send the sign-up link to your families and watch the roster fill. Reminders take it from there.
Families trust you with their details. We take that seriously.
Stored in Australia
Your organisation’s data lives on servers in Sydney, with encrypted nightly backups.
Children kept minimal
A first name and age group, nothing more. Children never get logins.
No passwords to leak
Organisers sign in with an emailed link, and admins can add a code by text.
One-tap unsubscribe
Every email and text DutyHouse sends has it. No spam, ever, and no selling data.
90 days of everything, free.
Every new organisation gets the full Premium plan for 90 days. After that, keep rostering on the Free plan or stay on Premium. No card to start, and nothing is deleted either way.
Questions committees ask
Do families need to create an account?
No. Families sign up from a link with just their name and email, and each household gets a private page for its bookings. Only the people running your organisation sign in, with a link emailed to them. There are no passwords to forget.
What happens after the 90 days?
You choose. Stay on the Free plan for rostering, or move to Premium to keep quotas, levies, reminders and the rest. Nothing is deleted when a plan changes: features just switch off until you turn them back on.
Do you take payments from families?
No. DutyHouse works out levies and refunds, then produces a bank (ABA) file your treasurer uploads to your own bank. The money never passes through us.
Is it only for sport?
No. Anything with volunteers and a roster works: schools, P&Cs, churches, markets, community events. You can rename things so the words match how your people talk.
Where is our data kept?
On servers in Sydney, with encrypted backups. For children, DutyHouse keeps only a first name and age group. Emails are delivered by an email service overseas; the details are in our privacy policy.
What if we stop using it?
Your records stay yours. An administrator can download your families, people, bookings, duty credits, refunds and checks as a spreadsheet at any time, on every plan, including Free.
Can we try it with real families straight away?
Yes. Set up takes a couple of minutes, and you can start with sample families to look around, then import your own when you are ready.
