How do I set up the membership form?
The membership form defines what your members fill in and what they pay. It is set up in three tabs: General (name, activation, payment methods), Form (the fields) and Help. The membership amount is built from one or more Paying option fields.
To open the editor, go to Manage the club > Configure sports seasons, then tap a form’s edit icon or Add a form on the season card (see How do I create and manage the club’s seasons?).
General tab: name and activation
Section titled “General tab: name and activation”- Name: the form’s name, shown to members (for example “Adult membership 2026-2027”).
- Is active ?: only active forms are offered to members. Deactivate a form to withdraw it without deleting it.
General tab: payment methods
