From sign-up to your first member.
Six steps, in plain English.
Sign up
Answer a few simple questions: your name, what you’ll share, your price and your colours.
We build it straight away
Your website, members’ area and dashboard are made in your name, in your colours, while you watch.
Add your lessons and prices
Video, audio, downloads and words. Monthly, yearly or one-off prices, in £, $ or €.
Open your doors
Connect your own Stripe account for card payments, then open your doors when you’re ready.
Members join and pay you
Payments go straight into your own bank, through your own payment account. We don’t take a share.
See everything in one dashboard
Members, money, emails and orders on one page, with what to do next.
Build everything free. Pay when you open your doors.
When you join, you build free. Set up your website, members’ area, lessons, prices and emails for as long as you like.
- No card needed to start
- No time limit on building
- Nothing goes live until you upgrade, so no members can join or pay before then
Free building opens to the waiting list first. Join the waiting list and we’ll email you when it’s your turn.
Or £250 a year. Upgrade within 7 days of signing up and it’s yours for as long as you stay.

Switch on the parts you need and leave the rest off. Mix them however you like.
Snail mail
Post something to members every month. Each month’s post goes onto your packing list with address labels ready to print.
Email-only
Lessons arrive in members’ inboxes on the days you choose. No logging in needed.
Private podcast
Members-only audio episodes that members listen to in their own podcast app, through a private feed.
Community
Posts, photos and short recorded videos, comments, a weekly question, points and badges. In your own space, not Facebook.
Courses and challenges
Video, audio, downloads and words. Lessons can open on the dates you choose, with Previous and Next buttons. Run challenges for members in the community.
Live calls
Members are reminded the day before and an hour before. Replays come with written transcripts and captions.
1:1 sessions and appointments
A booking page in your look. Free or paid, with a members’ price, and never clashing with your own calendar.
Flashcards
Cards members flip through to remember what they’ve learned.
Check-ins and accountability
A weekly “how did you get on?”, a goal for next week, and a streak to keep going.
Downloads
Workbooks, templates and printables. You choose which files members can download.

Not sure which kind of membership to run?
In the Recurring Income Academy, I teach the membership models: the Membership Models Library (real-life membership types, with examples) and my Light-Touch™ Method (a membership designed around your life, with no overwhelming content schedule and no Facebook group taking over).
Membership Unlimited is the software that runs whichever model you choose. The Academy is where I show you how to choose it, build it and fill it: a community of business owners with monthly coaching calls, £25 a month, cancel any time.
Everything you need, all in one place.
No more juggling a website plugin, payment links, a Facebook group, a course platform, an email tool and a spreadsheet of who’s paid.
Your website
- A website made from sections you switch on, fill in and put in order
- Your own blog
- Your colours, logo and look, used on your website, members’ area and emails
- A free web address to start with, and your own web address when you’re ready (we connect it with you)
- Pages Google can read, with proper titles and descriptions
- A ready-written quiz and freebies to build your list
Your members’ area
- Members sign in with a code we email them, so there are no passwords to forget
- On a phone they add it to their home screen and it opens like an app
- Lessons, community, live calls and their progress in one place
- Bring your existing members over from a spreadsheet, with the date each one joined
Payments
- Monthly, every 3 months, yearly or one payment
- Free or paid trials, if you want them
- A founding price for your first opening, kept by founding members
- Discount codes, and links that apply them
- Raise your price and members already paying keep theirs (or move them, with 30 days’ notice)
- If a card fails, the member gets an email with a one-tap link to update it, and later a link to come back at their old price
- Members can cancel or change their card themselves
- We don’t take a share of your sales
Doors and waiting list
- Always open, open and close with a button, or join weeks on dates you set
- A countdown on your sales page while the doors are open
- A waiting list whenever the doors are closed, emailed once when they open
Selling other things
- Courses, downloads, things you post, and bundles of them
- Postage for the UK, Europe and the rest of the world
- A basket, so people buy several things and pay once
- Offers: buy one get one free or half price, 3 for 2, spend and save, free postage
- Limited-time prices and closing dates
- Order forms that take card payments, and PayPal for one-off purchases
- A sales page builder that starts ready-filled, so it’s never blank
- Reminder emails to people who start paying but don’t finish
Emails
- Newsletters built from simple blocks, once or every week or month
- Emails that send themselves when someone joins or goes on a list, like a welcome series
- Email series that count down to a launch
- A free launch challenge to find your first members, with the emails written
- Clicks counted on every email
- Each person gets each email once, and unsubscribes are always left out
Partners
- Other people recommend your membership and earn a share you set
- Each partner gets their own link and their own page of clicks and earnings
- Each month you see what you owe each partner
Orders to post
- Buyers’ and members’ addresses in one list
- A packing list and A4 address labels to print
- Tick off what’s posted, and buyers get “on its way” emails
Your numbers
- Money in, including 1:1 sessions
- Members, who joined and who has gone quiet
- Visits to every page of your website, counted without cookies
- A VAT summary, if you’re VAT registered
GDPR built in
- A record of what each person agreed to
- Download or delete a person’s data, with a log
- A cookie box before any tracking
- Your privacy policy and terms
Video
- 10 hours of your own uploaded videos included
- 200 hours a month of members watching them
- YouTube and Vimeo links never count
- Need more? £5 a month adds 100 hours of watching or 10 hours of space. Going over never stops a video.
Help
- A walkthrough after setup and a Getting started list
- A real person replies by email, usually within one UK working day
- Urgent problems: same UK working day if they reach us by 4pm
Help at every step
Simple steps are built in, so you always know what to do next. If you get stuck, a real person replies.
From blank page to doors open
A short walkthrough after setup, then a Getting started list that ticks off as you go.
Know who needs a hello
Your dashboard shows who hasn’t been in for a few weeks, with a button to email them.
A real person replies
Ask from your dashboard. We usually reply within one UK working day, and the same day for anything urgent that reaches us by 4pm.
Memberships are a brilliant idea. The tech shouldn’t get in the way.
Dog trainers, crocheters, coaches, florists: most small business owners know exactly what they want to share with their members. Where they get stuck is the tech: plugins, payment links, logins and emails that don’t talk to each other.
Membership Unlimited puts everything in one place, in plain English, with simple steps to help. So you can spend your time on your members, not your software.
