Renew your membership
When you have successfully completed your first membership term and are looking to renew your current members (and potentially adding new members for the next term), follow the steps below:
- Follow steps 1-8 above to create and brand your membership
- Privately sell the membership to members from last year
- Select Members Only from Access and choose the memberships from the previous year that should have access
- Once you finish the private on-sale, Navigate to the Membership Details page and select Make Public
- You will be navigated to a wizard where we have changed the access type from MEMBERS ONLY to PUBLIC.
- Be sure to extend the on-sale window for the public on-sale if needed.
- Continue to the review step and Save the membership
