Unique Gift Purchase Links for Organizations
For organizations, we’ve also enabled a way for them to link directly to specific Membership Type for folks to purchase a ‘Gift Membership’
This makes it easy to link to an individual membership type, so organizations can link to this URL from their website behind a ‘Call To Action’ like ‘Gift an Annual Gold Membership’ (where ‘Annual Gold Membership’ is the name of your Membership Type)

Organizations can now view a table of previously sold gift memberships, making it easier to track gift sales. This Table can be found under 'Member Settings' > 'Gift Memberships'.
