What Kannect commits to chamber executives
100%
Reach. Every member, every announcement — not just the half on email.
2%
Fee on paid events. Mixers, luncheons, ribbon cuttings — ticketed at 2%, not 10–14%.
5 min
To launch. Import your member directory and start running events the same day.
1
Member record. Dues, events, attendance, and benefits in one place — no more spreadsheets.
One platform instead of five
Most chambers run on a CMS for the directory, Eventbrite for mixers, Mailchimp for the newsletter, a Facebook page for visibility, and a spreadsheet for member dues. Kannect retires all of it.
Mixers & member events
Paid events at 2% — ribbon cuttings, luncheons, networking.
Instant push notifications
Built in. Reaches every member instantly, not just the email list.
Member directory & site
Branded community pages and a member directory, included.
Dues & member records
One connected member record across events, dues, and benefits.
Members renew once, then disappear until next year
A chamber's value is connection, but it runs on an events tool, an email list, a printed directory, and a website. Members pay dues, attend one mixer, and drift.
Renewals without engagement
Members renew out of habit, not because they feel connected. That habit does not last forever.
Email that goes unread
Chamber newsletters land in busy inboxes and rarely get opened. Members miss what is happening.
Tools that don't connect
Events here, member records there, communication somewhere else. Nothing gives you the full picture.
Everything a chamber needs to engage members all year
One platform for events, member communication, and a directory that stays alive between renewals.
Events and mixers
Ribbon cuttings, networking lunches, and member mixers with RSVPs, tickets, and reminders.
Member communication
Reach members with instant push notifications and messages. Delivered, not lost in a newsletter.
A living member directory
Organize members into committees and tiers, with a directory that is always current.
A public chamber page
A public page where prospective members and the community can see your events and value.
Renewal reminders
Automated reminders and renewal nudges keep membership healthy without manual chasing.
Engagement insight
See which members are active and which are drifting, so you can act before they lapse.
Three steps to a chamber members stay part of
Set up your chamber
Start a 14-day free trial and build your chamber's community hub in under five minutes.
Bring in your members
Invite members, organize them into committees and tiers, and let prospects find you on Kannect Discover.
Keep them engaged all year
Run events, send updates, and coordinate committees. Members get every update in the Community Hub app.
Independent. Verified. Built for you.
Two things make Kannect different from the tools chambers usually settle for.
Independent and founder-run
Bending Spoons, a holding company known for buying consumer apps, raising prices, and cutting support, now owns both Meetup and Eventbrite. Kannect is independent and answers to the communities it serves, not to an acquirer.
Verified and spam-free
Every organization joins through a credit-card-verified trial that stops bots and fake businesses. Your chamber network stays real, trusted, and spam-free.
Engagement that earns the renewal
Of members reached
Every announcement reaches every member who opted in. No algorithm decides who sees it.
To launch
Most chambers set up their community hub and go live in under five minutes.
Around your members
No advertising near your business community. Your chamber network is never monetized.
Chamber questions, answered
Can we organize members into committees and tiers?
Yes. You can group members into committees, tiers, and programs, and communicate with each group precisely.
Do members need to download an app?
No. Members can take part on the web, and they can also use the Kannect Community Hub app for events, updates, and messages.
Can prospective members find our chamber?
Yes. Your chamber gets a public page on Kannect Discover where prospective members and the wider community can see your events and programs.
How much does Kannect cost?
Plans start at $15/mo billed yearly, or $19/mo month to month. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial, and a credit card is required to start it, which keeps Kannect verified and spam-free.
