Creating and Managing Memberships

Creating a New Membership

1. Go to Memberships in the admin panel.

2. Click New Membership.

3. Enter the Membership Name.
   

   

Once created, you’ll be taken to the membership settings page where you can configure visibility, benefits, pricing plans, etc.

Public vs. Admin-Only Memberships

Display Membership Publicly

Click Settings & Plans tab.

• Toggle List on Home Page ON to make the membership visible and purchasable by users from the Home Page → Memberships page (app.getopencourt.com or app).

• Toggle it OFF to make the membership admin-only (users won’t see it on the website or app).

  

Admin-only memberships are useful for:

• Corporate or business agreements

• Special pricing for specific users

• Private offers or promotions

Membership Description (Public Content)

You can add a public description that appears on the membership page.

• This field supports Markdown

• Bullet points are commonly used to list benefits.
  Start each line with a hyphen (-) followed by a space.

This description helps users understand the value before purchasing.

Your future members will see it like this:

Rule Sets (Membership Benefits & Access)

Each membership uses a Rule Set, which defines:

• Court booking visibility

• Advance booking windows

• Pricing rules

• Schedule access

Rule sets can be shared across multiple memberships.

Example:

• A Basic rule set can be used for:

  • Individual membership

  • Couple membership

  • Family membership

• A Pro membership can use a separate rule set with expanded benefits

This avoids duplicating benefit configurations.

Rule Sets editing feature is coming soon! If you need to change anything now, please contact your OpenCourt representative.

Family & Group Memberships

If the membership supports families or groups:

1. Toggle Family / Group Membership ON.

2. Create or select a Dependent Membership.

Dependent members:

• Do not pay individually

• Inherit benefits and expiration dates from the primary member

• Automatically lose benefits if the primary membership ends
  

  

Pricing Plans (Monthly, Annual, etc.)

Each membership can have multiple pricing plans, such as:

• Monthly Plan

• Annual Plan

• Promo Plan

• Family and Friends Plan (some special offer for family and friends only)

• Early Birds Plan (e.g. before the club opens)

For each plan:

• Set the price

• Set the billing interval (e.g. 1 month or 12 months)

• Choose whether the plan is:

  • Active (see more details below)

  • Displayed publicly (see more details below)

⚠️ Make sure to set the correct billing interval (for example, 12 months for annual plans).

Displaying Pricing Publicly

• You can choose to display on the Memberships Page:

  • All pricing plans

  • Only selected plans

• If a plan is active but not displayed publicly:

  • Users cannot purchase it themselves

Admins can still assign it manually.

Example:
Promo Plan with 20% discount is not displayed publicly, so your future members can’t purchase it on the website or in the app.

Your customer’s view:

But admins can sell it on the admin portal:

If a plan is inactive:

• It cannot be sold or assigned anymore

• Existing members on that plan remain and continue renewing

This is useful for:

• Early-bird pricing (example: you have a special price before club opening, then these members keep the discounted plan, but no one else can buy it anymore).

• Limited-time offers

• Legacy plans

Archiving and Deleting Memberships

• Memberships cannot be deleted if they were ever used by at least one user.

• You can archive a membership instead:

  • It’s hidden from the active list

  • Existing members remain unaffected

• Use Show Archived to view archived memberships.

Reordering Memberships

You can change the display order of memberships to control how they appear on the public memberships page.

Summary

Membership settings give clubs full control over:

• Public vs. private memberships

• Pricing plans and billing intervals

• Family and group access

• Special pricing and admin-only offers

This flexibility allows clubs to support everything from standard memberships to corporate deals and limited promotions—all in one place.
