Informative article for creating your memberships according to your needs

Firstly, here are all the different types of memberships that are possible to be created in your platform. You will find them in Menu> Memberships > Add new membership.

• Recurring payments:
  These memberships are established for a period determined by you. There is therefore a start date and an end date established. The invoices will be established over the duration of the membership where you can adjust via the fields Billing frequency and number of billing cycles. For example, for a 12 month unlimited membership, monthly withdrawals would be a good option for you.

Billing frequency: How often are they billed? For example, customers will be billed every 2 weeks or once a month.

Number of billing cycles: It is the duration of your contract which will be calculated according to the number of cycles. For example, 12 cycles at the rate of once a month is equivalent to 12 months billed once monthly.

• Auto Renew
  These memberships will renew automatically according to the billing frequency that you establish. To stop these memberships you must do it manually in the profile of the member in question. For example, for a lifetime memberships, this type would be a good option for you.
• Packs
  It is a type of memberships with a single payment where you can set a limit on the number of classes that can be used by the member at any time without restriction.

1. Create 'Drop-ins'
   Create a pack type memberships and select the classes whose members will have access to for a  drop-in. Subsequently, complete the required fields and enter a limit of one classes.
