Memberships by card or Direct Debit
Weekly, monthly or annual memberships are paid by card or Direct Debit, whichever the member chooses. They set it up once, on Stripe’s own secure page, and payments are then taken automatically. The member pays exactly the price you set. Match fees, kit and trips can be paid by card too.
Approvals you control
Approve in one tap, with a 10 second Undo before anything goes out. Membership status and payment status are always shown apart, so you can see who is in and who has paid.
WhatsApp for members
Payment links go out on WhatsApp. If a payment fails, you send a friendly reminder whenever you choose, and any automatic ones come no more than once a week. Each member also has a simple My membership page.
Last One Standing built in
Run a weekly football predictions game for your members. Picks lock 10 minutes before the round’s first kick-off, a draw knocks you out, and fixtures and results are fetched automatically. £20 per game for the game software.
