With Join It, it's easy to process payments for your memberships. There are many different options for accomplishing this, so we've gone through and explained each one in more detail. 

The most popular way to process a membership payment is by having your members purchase a membership from your public portal. You can find your Portal by clicking the 'View Member Portal ' button from your Dashboard on the bottom left-hand corner -- or here is an example profile to check out. 

This checkout process will be split in two pages, the first page will collects the member's details and any additional fields that you want. Then they will click on 'proceed to payment' and that is where they will enter in their payment details to 'join'.

Another popular option for taking a membership payment is through your admin dashboard. When logged in as an admin of an organization is creating a membership for the first time, they have the opportunity to enter payment details to process a payment on behalf of a member (at this time, you can also record offline payments like cash or check). 

You'll want to click on the 'Members' drop-down menu and then select 'Add Member'. From there you'll be able to choose the Members Membership Type, choose the payment option and enter in the Members information before proceeding to payment.

Additionally, there is a third way to process a payment for a membership -- in the form of a one-time online payment. This is intended for memberships as follow-on payments after a member has already purchased a membership via Stripe. 

Note: The online one-time payment option will only be available if there is a connected Stripe record from a previous purchase made by the member.  

To process a one-time payment for a membership, navigate to the Membership record and click the green 'Add Payment' button and then select 'Collect Online Payment'.

Once you've selected 'Collect Online Payment' you can choose the collection method--Send an Invoice, or Collect Online. As stated above, the online payment option will only be available if there is a connected Stripe record from a previous purchase made by the Member.
