Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about membership management, facility rentals, and switching to Communal.
What is membership management software?
Membership management software is a platform that helps organizations track members, process renewals, collect payments, and manage communications. Good membership software for nonprofits includes features like automated renewal reminders, digital membership cards, and member self-service portals. Communal is an all-in-one membership management software that also handles facility rentals, event registration, volunteer coordination, and donations.
How do digital membership cards work?
Digital membership cards are mobile-friendly cards that members store in their Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. When a member joins or renews, they receive their digital card via email.
