Please note! Recurring membership payments can work with Stripe payment processor only(previous integration, but not SCA).

You can set price only for membership here and zero price for service(in Manage//Services//Service details//Price) connected to this membership(for gyms for example) or you can set prices for both Membership and Service, it will allow your clients who purchased membership book a service at a lower price.


How to add service to Membership

In “Services, attached to this membership” tab you will be able to check the boxes with services you wish to be attached to this Membership. It will be possible to book this service only if a client has purchased this Membership.
