Membership Software for Social and Recreation Clubs

Web Software to Grow and Manage Your Club Membership Online

The whole point of a social club is to get together with others who share your passion, or simply the chance to get out and meet new people.Types of social clubs that would benefit from our software include:

• Book Clubs
• Music Clubs
• Wine Clubs
  

But running a club isn't easy.

No matter how large or small your club might be, it can be a challenge to manage memberships, organize events, and spread the word when important issues come up between regular meetings. A blog for quick news, your photos on one site and videos on another, and receipt books and spreadsheets all over your kitchen table as you try to keep track of whose memberships are current... We've all been there. And if your club is like most, the same few volunteers always seem to end up doing all the work.

What if there could be a way to share the load? Imagine if your members could sign up, pay up, and update their own contact information 24/7 online. If they could register themselves for club events and get email reminders on schedule, automatically. And if you could get an instant report of your membership, payments, events, etc. - a club snapshot - any time you need the information.

Wild Apricot is designed to simplify and automate the day-to-day administration tasks of running a club, so you can get back to pursuing your passion. It's perfect for any type of club including:

• Sports Clubs
• Service Clubs
• Student Clubs
