Frequently asked questions
Who pays for the service?
The lodge pays. Your Treasurer settles a single monthly invoice covering all active members.
How is the monthly cost calculated?
It is £1 per active member, per month. If member numbers change, the next invoice adjusts accordingly.
What happens if a lodge is late paying?
A reminder is sent at 14 days overdue and again at 45 days. If the invoice remains unpaid after 60 days, lodge access is temporarily suspended. Paying the outstanding balance restores access straight away.
Is the ritual learning section available?
Yes — ritual study is available now. Members can access degree-based sections with prompt mode and audio for Emulation Working. Access is controlled strictly by degree: each member can only see content up to and including their own degree. Entered Apprentices see the first degree, Fellow Crafts see the first and second, and Master Masons have access to all three degrees.
Who can access Almoner notes?
Almoner welfare cases are confidential and restricted to the lodge Almoner. The Secretary can assign the Almoner role but cannot view case details.
