A simpler alternative to MemberClicks

Member Clicks can be a good fit for associations that want a broader all-in-one association management system with built-in tools for membership, events, email, websites, and more. Join It is a better fit for teams that want a cleaner, more focused membership platform that helps them manage members, payments, renewals, events, and engagement without taking on unnecessary complexity. Since 2016, more than 4,000 organizations have used Join It to manage over $100M in membership payments, and Capterra rates Join It 4.7 overall, including 4.9 for customer service. The result is a simpler membership system your team can manage confidently while still connecting with your existing website, email, event, and payment tools.

MemberClicks takes a broader AMS approach, bundling a wide range of association tools into one platform. Join It focuses on making the core membership workflow easier: member records, online sign-ups, recurring payments, renewal reminders, digital membership cards, event registration, member check-in, member directories, and integrations. For organizations that want strong membership management without a heavy all-in-one system, Join It offers a more focused and flexible alternative.

Teams evaluating alternatives to MemberClicks often look for a membership platform that is easier to launch, simpler to manage day to day, and less tied to a broad AMS bundle they may not fully use. Join It addresses those needs with published pricing starting at $29/month, no onboarding fees, self-serve setup, a focused set of membership tools, and modern member features like Apple Wallet and Google Wallet membership cards. Responsive, human support is also one of Join It’s most frequently praised strengths in customer reviews, which matters during any platform transition.

Many membership teams are run by small staffs, volunteers, or administrators who do not have time for a long implementation or steep learning curve. Join It emphasizes a clean admin experience, straightforward setup, self-service member tools, and responsive support when you need help. Members can join, renew, update their information, and access their membership online, while admins manage day-to-day tasks from a dashboard built for clarity.

A full AMS can make sense if your organization wants one vendor to handle a wide range of association functions, such as website management, learning tools, job boards, events, email, and member administration. But many organizations already have tools they like for some of those jobs. Join It gives you the core membership features you need while allowing you to keep using your existing website, email platform, event tools, and automation workflows. That means less software bloat, fewer unused features, and a membership system that fits your actual operations.

Instead of forcing your organization to move every workflow into one closed platform, Join It acts as the central membership database while connecting with the tools around it. You can use Join It with your existing website, sync member data to email tools, connect event activity, process payments through Stripe, and automate workflows through integrations like Zapier. This gives your team flexibility to modernize membership management without rebuilding your entire technology stack.

When comparing Join It and MemberClicks, look beyond the starting price. Consider whether you need an annual contract, whether onboarding or implementation costs apply, which features are included, and whether you will actually use the broader AMS tools bundled into the package. Join It is designed to keep pricing simple and predictable, with plans based on member capacity, clear service fees, no setup fees, and a free trial with no credit card required. For organizations that want transparent pricing and a lower-friction path to launch, Join It can be a more accessible alternative.
