Start with a plan name
Give your membership plan a name. This is your chance to be creative — choose something you can truly own, that feels native to your brand and sticks in your members' minds. If you're building a community, this is especially important: let your brand's tone of voice lead, and don't be afraid to lean into your creative angle.
Status
While building your plan, keep the status set to Draft. This lets you preview your work as you go — just note that the preview is only visible when you're logged into Glu's admin area. Once you're happy with everything, simply change the status to Active and your membership plan will go live.
Visibility
Visibility controls whether your membership plan is linked to from other Glu products. Set it to Public to have it connected across your Glu products, or Direct to keep it standalone with no links to it from elsewhere in Glu.
Tiers
Decide whether you want to build standard or unlockable tiers, then click Add new tier to get started.
📚 Note: You'll need to add at least one tier before you can preview the page.
Display member credit
Choose whether members can see their available credit balance in their digital wallet.
Terms and conditions
Now for the important bit — write out your membership terms and conditions. These will be displayed at the bottom of your membership plan page for members to review before signing up.
Page design
This is where you bring your membership landing page to life. Before you start, make sure you've added at least one tier — you'll need it to preview the page.
Give the page a title and some supporting text to introduce your plan and entice new members to sign up. From there, you can upload a background image or video header to make a strong first impression.
The optional styling tools let you go further, with controls for text colour, page background colour, and tier card colours — so you can make the page feel like a natural extension of your brand.
Sign-up flow
This is where you configure and style the sign-up experience for your membership plan.
Step 1 — Email verification. Customise this step by setting the title text and supporting subtext to welcome new members from the moment they begin signing up.
Step 2 — Member details. Update the messaging and choose which fields are displayed in your sign-up form. To capture more customer data, add custom fields and set each one as required or optional depending on your needs.
Once you've worked through all of these steps, you're ready to go live. Switch your status to Active and start welcoming your first members.
