Renewals that don't lose people.

Any tier you offer — student, regular, lifetime, family, honorary, institutional — with auto-renew, grace periods, payment retry, and lapse-recovery workflows that catch members before they walk away. Configured once, runs all year.

What it does

The capabilities that earn this module's place.

Configurable tiers

The membership model you actually use.

Build any tier structure: student, regular, lifetime, family, honorary, institutional, sustaining, scholarship. Each tier has its own pricing, renewal cadence, benefits, eligibility rules, and required fields. Add a tier, retire a tier, restructure pricing — all from settings, no support ticket.

  • Unlimited tier configurations
  • Per-tier benefits and required fields
  • Eligibility rules (age, residency, status)

Auto-renew

The card on file does the work.

When a member signs up with auto-renew, their dues charge automatically on the renewal date — annually, monthly, or whatever your tier defines. Members get a heads-up email two weeks before renewal so they're never surprised; they can cancel auto-renew anytime from the portal.

  • Configurable renewal cadence per tier
  • Two-week pre-renewal notice
  • Member-controlled cancellation

Payment retry & lapse recovery

Failed cards don't quietly bleed members.

When an auto-renew charge fails (expired card, insufficient funds, declined), the system retries on a schedule and emails the member to update their card. Members in a grace period keep their access; members who don't resolve get a warm re-engagement email, not a cold cancellation.

  • Multi-attempt payment retry
  • Grace periods with continued access
  • Lapse-recovery email sequence

Family memberships

One account. The whole household.

Family memberships cover the whole household — spouses, kids, dependent grandparents. Per-member benefits still apply (each member checks in individually, registers for their own programs, gets their own badge), but billing and renewal happen at the household level.

  • Configurable family-tier rules
  • Sibling and dependent pricing
  • Per-member benefits, household-level billing

A workflow walkthrough

A member's first year, renewal through recovery.

The lifecycle of a single member, from sign-up through one near-miss lapse and the recovery email that saved the renewal.

  1. March 4 — Marcus joins. He signs up for the regular individual tier, pays pro-rata for the nine months through year-end, sets up auto-renew. Welcome email queues automatically.

  2. December 15 — Pre-renewal notice. Two weeks before the January 1 renewal, the system emails Marcus: "Your membership renews January 1 for $250. The card on file is the Visa ending 4521. Update or cancel anytime."

  3. January 1 — Auto-renew runs. The charge fires. His Visa was replaced in November; the auto-renew fails. The system retries in 3 days; failed again. A soft email goes to Marcus: "We weren't able to process your renewal. Update your card from the portal — your access continues through January 31."

  4. January 14 — Marcus updates. He gets the second reminder email, taps through, updates the card in 90 seconds. The renewal charge fires on the new card; he's renewed for another year. The whole sequence visible in his record — failed charges, recovery emails, successful renewal — for the audit log.

  5. February 1 — All clear. Marcus is on the active member roster for the new year. The director's monthly board summary shows the recovery: he was one of 18 members who came back through the payment-retry workflow this month.
