Creating and Managing Registrations
Registrations are the specific membership packages you offer. You can have multiple active registrations at once, allowing for different membership tiers or "Early Bird" pricing.
Creating a New Registration
Basic Information
- Name: The public name of the membership (e.g., "2024 Full Family Membership").
- Resulting Member Type: The category members will be assigned to upon completion (e.g., "Family", "Senior", "Junior").
- Active/Hidden: "Active" makes it available for signup. "Hidden" keeps it active but requires a direct link (useful for private memberships).
Content Sections
Each registration type has four unique content areas:
- Welcome Content: Shown at the very start of the registration process.
- Pricing Description: Explains the costs associated with this specific tier.
- Check Payment Instructions: Shown only if "Allow Check Payment" is enabled. Include mailing addresses or drop-off instructions here.
- Registration Complete Content: The final message shown after successful payment/completion.
Pricing Schemes
PoolMMS supports two main pricing types:
| Type | Description | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Fixed | A set price based on the number of family members. | $500 for up to 4 members, $50 for each additional. |
| Formula | A dynamic calculation using math logic. | (m * 100) + 250 where m is the number of members. |
Fees
You can add multiple fees to any registration:
- Fixed Fee: A flat charge (e.g., $50 Application Fee).
- Fixed Per Member: Charged for every person in the registration.
- Percent Fee: A percentage of the base membership price.
- Stripe Fee: A special fee type that can calculate and pass through credit card processing costs to the member.
Constraints & Requirements
- Requires Existing Membership: Enable this if the registration is only for members who are already in the system (e.g., a "Renewal" registration).
- Allow Check Payment: If enabled, members can bypass the credit card step and be marked as "Pending Payment."
Pro-Tip: Use the Pricing Scheme Configurator (available in the admin tools) to test your formulas before taking them live. It uses the Dentaku logic engine.
