Membership management software compared: what 6 companies charge

We do not convert currencies. A page we could not read is marked could not read, a page that asks for a quote is marked quote only, and the reasons are listed below the table. Pages can show different prices to visitors in different countries. A price with no currency named is shown with the sign the page used; it may be the United States version or the one for the country the page assumed we were in, so check the page you are sent to.

• 1 of the 6 charges per user, or for extra users, on at least one plan, so the price grows with the team.
• 2 of the 6 offer a free plan, and 3 offer a time-limited trial.

• Glue Up: All contracts are billed annually by default, and the page says pricing varies with organisation size and requirements. Limit upgrades and add-ons can be bought at any time but their prices are not shown, and every plan has a Get a Demo button.
• Hello Club: Priced by member count and number of sports or activities, with GST extra and unlimited admins. Card payments carry per-transaction fees on top of the subscription, onboarding is included from Standard up, and every plan button says Book a demo.
• TidyHQ: Both plans charge a service fee on membership, event and shop transactions (3% + 0.20 on Starter, 1% + 0.20 on Pro), and Stripe's own processing fees come on top. The page says there are no setup fees and no lock-in contracts.
• Wild Apricot: The page lists no setup, per-transaction or cancellation fees; payment-provider fees apply, and payment systems other than Personify cost an additional fee.
• MemberSpace: On top of the subscription MemberSpace keeps a share of every sale (5% on Starter, 2% on Growth, 1% on the custom tier), not counting Stripe's processing fees.
• Raklet: Every plan charges a transaction fee on payments, from 4% + $0.60 on Free to 1% + $0.60 on Premium, and payments run through Stripe. Extra admin seats are $19 a month, onboarding packages start at $300, and a custom branded mobile app is $299 a month on annual billing.

• How the price grows: by member count, by contact count or by tier.
• Whether collecting dues and renewals is inside the price, and the payment fees on top.
• Event registration and email, inside or extra.
• Whether you can export the full members list at any time.

We do not sell membership software yet. A members list, dues and a portal are on our list for clubs and associations; tell us what yours needs and we will be in contact, or we can build to order, quoted in writing.
