A new face walks in, ready to join your club. Here’s how to sign them up;


Step One - Is this a new Member or a Prospect?

They’re ready to attend a class, service, or a full or casual membership to your club. Select Member
They’re making inquiries and are considering using the club casually or as a member. Select Prospect

  • Use the toggle at the top to select Member or Prospect
    Change toggle default - Advanced Configuration > Member

Step Two - Enter Personal Details

New prospects will be complete upon saving details. Return at any time to ‘toggle’ their account to Member, then add membership or booking.
For casual members wanting to make a booking without a membership, skip the membership step and head to Bookings.
