Calendar Memberships

Calendar Memberships are a great way to give special access to events and other content to your members. Calendar Memberships are great for run clubs, startup accelerators, and social clubs. 

With a Calendar Membership you can create different tiers and choose how people can join each tier.

You have the following price options for each tier: 

• Subscription Payment - Members will pay a fee recurring monthly or yearly. We will manage payments, updating payment information, and more. This is great for run clubs or other ongoing groups.
• One Time Payment - Members will pay an initial fee to join the group. This is great if you have a festival, conference, or event series where you have a group of events you’d like to grant access to.
• Free - Members can join without paying. This works well for interest groups or if you are requiring application.

You’re able to set up each tier with registration questions that members fill out when they join and you can require admin approval so that applications are reviewed before members become active. 

Once a member is active in a tier, you can grant them special access to events and other content. 

• Calendar Event List - Choose if the event list is shown to non-members. You can hide all calendar events from non members.
• Member-Only Event Visibility - You can mark an event as Member-Only so that only active members will see when viewing the calendar.
• Member-Only Newsletters - Send newsletters to specific membership tiers. When composing a newsletter, choose a tier from the recipient dropdown to send only to active members of that tier.
• Member-Only Tickets - Allow members to register for special tickets. This lets you give them special pricing or access to events.

To get started, you can add a Membership Tier to your Calendar.

1. Find your calendar in luma.com/home/calendars
2. Go to the People Tab and create a new Membership Tier

Once you publish that Membership Tier, then members will be able to join your Membership.

Managing Members

You can manually add or remove members from your membership tiers at any time from the People tab.

3. Click the action menu and select Add to Membership
4. Choose which membership tier to add them to
5. Optionally fill out any membership questions on their behalf

You can also add members to a tier when importing contacts. During the import process, you'll have the option to assign a membership tier to everyone you're importing.

Removing a Member

1. Go to your calendar's People tab
2. Click on the member to open their details panel

When you remove someone from a membership, they'll remain a subscriber of your calendar unless you also choose to remove them from the calendar. If they have an active subscription, it will be canceled.
