Summary

When an organization is using Join It, we host the Member Portal - which allows your members to purchase new memberships, renew existing memberships, update their information - and much more.

There are many ways to connect your Member Portal to your standalone website - and one approach are Join It's wonderful widgets.

Available Widgets

Within your Organization's Dashboard, Join It provides you a number of different widgets to serve the purpose of connecting your Member Portal to your website. Learn about each of these individual widgets below.

Embeddable Widgets

Join It provides Embeddable Widgets that you can integrate into your website, so that folks can Purchase and Renew their memberships directly from your Website.

This provides a seamless User Experience for your members, and it's a slick way for you to keep your brand front-and-center during the purchase of a membership.

When it comes to Configuring the Widget, you'll have a couple options. First, you can choose the 'width' and 'height' of the widget. These options allow you to determine the width and height of the iFrame - so that it's optimized for your website. You can come back and adjust these at anytime, without having to adjust any implementation.

Next, you can determine the 'Allowed Operations' and you can choose between 'Purchase' or 'Purchase & Renewal'. If you select 'Purchase & Renewal', then the widget will prompt the user to select which action they'd like to complete first. If you select only 'Purchase', then the widget will direct the user down the path of purchases a brand new membership.

Button Widget

Join It also provides an easy widget for creating buttons that you can use anywhere to link from your site to your Member Portal. You can choose whether you want the final destination of these buttons to be: The 'homepage' of your Member Portal, the member login page, or a specific 'checkout' page for one of your Membership Types.

Within the Widget, you can also customize:

  • The text of the button

  • The color of the button

  • The target of the button (whether it opens into a new tab or the current tab)

Once you've made your selections, you can copy the button's code and use it.
