Questions lodges ask
Can our committee approve it first?
Yes. Before you pay we can send a quote for your lodge committee, and an invoice your Treasurer can pay by bank transfer.
Does it renew automatically?
No. About a month before your lodge's year ends we email an invoice. You renew by paying it, so nothing is ever taken without your say-so.
What does our own web address cost?
It's optional. We buy it for you, look after it and bill it once a year, about £10 a year, at cost plus a small fee. We renew it only once your lodge's yearly payment has been made. If your lodge already has one, you can keep it. Or use a free web address from us, like alliance.lodgesites.org.uk.
Does our Province need to approve the website?
Yes, and we build that step in. Your website is first published privately, hidden from search engines, so you can send the link to your Province. Once they've approved it and you've added their approval badge, it goes live.
What if we change our minds?
Your lodge can cancel at any time, and if you're not happy within 30 days of your first payment we refund it in full. See refunds and cancelling.
What happens to our website and web address if we leave?
We keep them for 14 days, and then remove them. While you're with us, we register and look after your web address; we don't renew it after you leave.
Who is it for?
Any lodge, in any Province or District, or in London. Lodge Platform is independent: it isn't endorsed by, or connected with, the United Grand Lodge of England or any Province.
