With the appropriate user permissions, a user/staff member is able to add/edit Membership Types under Members > Membership Types in the main menu.
To add a new membership type, use the + Add Membership Type button.
To edit an existing membership type, click on the orange name of the membership type to access the membership type settings.
You MUST make sure that the membership types are correct. We typically do some optimization when we first import your data but the majority of the imports have membership types that we have questions about and you will need to do some research to make some decisions.
Below are some things to consider:
We recommend consolidating your membership types to make the sign- up process as easy as it can be for your members and your front desk staff. This means as short, concise, and structured, as possible.
Core can handle a lot of different rates within 1 discount group. That means you do not need membership types for corporates, military, special rates, etc. All these can be handled with a discount on top of the regular membership type.
Some easy exceptions to our recommendation of 'Thou shall not create membership types for discounts' is Silver Sneakers or others like it. When in doubt we can always walk you through the specific scenarios and the pros-cons of doing it one way vs another.
You can add rules for how many people can be on an account and what age. The rules are Explicit which means if you don't make a rule about a particular age range there can be unlimited people in that range.
