Dramatically simplify membership renewal process for members
This is a request to improve the process for members to renew memberships. Non-Profit organizations depend on memberships and membership renewals for continued funding and advocacy. As a result it’s necessary to repeatedly lobby members to renew, so it’s critical for membership renewals to be a convenient one click process to get to the Pay-Pal screen. Sending members to the home page and requiring a login and password in order to renew membership is inconvenient and cumbersome. We have two requests for improving the process:
- A direct link to the “membership renewal page”, bypassing the password requirement (the way the…

Tracking lapsed members who reactivate
We would like to track our members history more accurately. Right now, if they lapse and then sign up again a year or two later they are shown as having continuous membership since their original date of sign up.

Bundle membership pricing
Current behavior:
Bundle membership pricing policy is is not flexible - administrator can only setup memberhsip fee and bundle limit. No way to setup pricing based on number of people in bundle.
Desired behavior:
Add ability to admin to set pricing policy for bundle memberships.For example, we receive feedback from our customers:
- "...It would be much easier to have a quantity field to compute the number of members for billing... People select the number of members to include in the bundle. The system calculates the invoice amount."
- "...Group memberships - would like a system that allows multiple registrations,…61 votes -
Application for Joint Membership: Both Members Apply with One Application
The process for applying for joint membership does not work well. The administrator completes the application, but there is nowhere for that person to add their partner or spouse at the time of application. After the main member has been approved, it is near impossible to get that member to add their spouse after the fact, even after I send a personal email asking them to do so. It would be so much more effective to have them add the partner at the same time and have check boxes for items that are the same, like the same address or…

Prorating Membership Level Upgrades
Copied from another discussion -
Discount coupons discussed here are only for new member applications.
What you are talking about is prorating the membership payment when members change their level - applying unused membership fee and/or reducing the new fee if new membership level is not for a full period. We are working on this - it would be great if you could start a new thread on the wishlist forum to explain how you would like to see it work.

Ex - level a - $35 annual fee and level…
54 votesWe have started analysis for this issue, and it seems that key problem is how Wild Apricot handles level changes close to renewal date. The system is currently designed to collect the full new level amount and set renewal date according to new level renewal policy. All prepaid amounts for old levels are disposed. Moreover, since no prorating occurs, the new level might be effective only for a few days.
As a first step, we suggest to redesign how level change is working and add prorating there:
- Level would be changed immediately, as now
- Remaining portion of old membership level payment will be applied to new level
- For new levels with specific renewal date (e.g. annual levels with renewals Jan 1st) apply the pro-rating settings for new applications:
- Allow member to pay only a pro-rated amount of the new level fee (e.g. six months before renewal… -
combine event and member registration
We need to combine an event (our annual conference) with membership application on the same registration page. In other words, as people sign up for the conference, they can click a box to become a member. Part of their $95 fee will be applied to conference registration and part to annual membership. Is that possible?

Membership cards - ability to save more than one template
The newly available Membership Card functionality is definitely and improvement. What would make it even better? Allow us to create multiple templates that could be filtered by Member Level, or Group Participation. Thanks.

Keep Membership card to smartphone (like Wallet app on iPhone)
Export a membership card to smart phone (the iOS one is called wallet I think), Then members could store it with their boarding passes etc, and show when necessary at participating retailers to collect their membership discount.

Admin to approve membership renewals
I realize this is a stretch, but our organization wants to require administrator approval not just for new applications, but for renewals.
For example, we have a discounted rate for full time students. We require that people show evidence they are full time students before we activate their membership. We can control this on the Member Level > New Applications tab with a checkbox under "Membership application review"
But once they are approved, a year later, they can renew at the same level even if they are no longer eligible for the discount.
Anyone has a solution for this?
Thanks/

Enhancements for Groups functionality
In our 2.36 update we have released Groups functionality - ability to organize members into groups - such as 'Board of Directors', 'Volunteer Committee', etc. These groups are independent of membership levels - one group can include members from different levels. These groups can be used to keep track of member participation in committees, restrict access to website pages to a particular group, or for advanced searches and emails. Seehttps://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/Member+groups
We are contemplating a number of possible further enhancements to this and would love to get your feedback.
Here are our initial ideas:1) Group moderators. Group moderator is a…

Defer payment until application is approval
I think it would be helpful to have an online application with an option of deferring the membership fee until the applicant has been approved for membership.
This would allow them to complete an application, which would enter the system as a Pending status. Once they have been approved, and the record is marked as Approved, then they would receive an email requesting that they then pay for the membership.
Our group has certain guidelines that must be met for membership. There are also other documents (proof of insurance, etc) that must be sent in for review. Once these items…

For now, this is not something we’re going to change – not sure if ever.
Workaround to use: create a special “entry” free level to apply to, and close “normal” ones for application. For the entry level, create also a dropdown field where a potential member can choose a level they want to apply to. Add other fields you need to assess the application. When application is successful, your admin is to change membership level to required one and generate membership invoice (membership upgrade invoice). The member will be emailed with the invoice and can pay. -
Provide ability to set group join policy by each group
I keep wanting to love Wild Apricot. But time after time I run into limitations that truly make no sense to me. I am glad that WA instituted some other way than Member Level to limit access to Restricted Pages. That was way too limiting. But the way Groups work to limit access is an all or nothing affair because of the way Group Participation works.
Let's start off with an example of various groups you might have in a HOA: Board Member, Volunteer Group, Newsletter, Swim Team, Tennis, etc. Now let's say that you want a restricted page for…

Require member to update or verify profile when renewing
I would like the option to require members to verify their information is correct when they renew annually. Currently there's no way to force members to even look at their information after they initially inputted it, which may be several years old.

Customization of Email sent during Membership Level Change workflow
When a member changes there level, the system automatically sends them an email. Since there is an option to choose "manual payment", we need to be able to add our physical address to the email.

Make it easier for a new member to sign up as part of existing bundle / organization
A suggestion that I would like to make now is to make it easier for a new member to sign up and be part of an existing bundle. Here is my current workflow, and the problem.
My organization has individual members, and corporate memberships, which are bundles with 10 possible places, one being the admin.
As it stand now, when new member signs up, and chooses corporate membership, they are assigned as a new bundle administrator and asked to pay the full corporate membership fee. There is no mechanism to have them be assigned to an existing bundle when they…

Notify admin about new members
It would be great to have a notice (to the admins) that is in your face when you login and there is a new member. Maybe there is a way to do this and I missed it. Either way, I have to be diligent about checking if there are new members when a pop-up or something at the top of the page that stands out would be better. :) Thanks for listening!

Member referrals
Also need to integrate referral discounts capability just like Wild Apricot uses. If WA thinks it is good for themselves, they need to integrate for us. I want my members to get a 15% discount for each referral, but I also want them to have their own discount code to pass to their referral so the referral gets the same 15% discount and is encouraged to use the code

Members, Summary - reporting on bundles
Almost all of our member levels are bundles, so having the bundle numbers in brackets for the Total column is good, but it would be really useful on the other columns as well. The dashboard would then be a great quick report for associations like ours.
