Creating a Membership Product

To create a membership product, first follow the Adding a New Product guide to add the main configuration for your product, such as the price, audience, financial coding and more.

Once you have created your product and added all of the relevant information, there will be a few additional settings that must be added within the following areas:

Shop Options

Ensure the Member Sales (and Associate Member Sales, if applicable) boxes are ticked to allow only members to purchase the product. This means the product will only be available when a member has signed into your SU website, and will ensure the membership will then be registered against their account when purchased. You can make membership products available to the public, but this will not generate a membership against the Activity.

In this section, also ensure the correct Activity is selected under the Would you like to assign this product to a group? field. This ensures a membership is generated against the correct Activity upon purchase.

Additional Options

In this section, ensure you select the correct Subscription Type.

If selecting Fixed Term, select the relevant length of the membership.

If selecting Expiry, select the expiry date for any memberships purchased.

Please note: If you do not select a Subscription Type, this will not be classed as a membership product and a membership will not be generated against the chosen Activity upon purchase.
