The Reality for Most Car Club Committees

Three Problems That Drain Every Volunteer Committee

01

The Club's History Lives in a Past Officer's Spreadsheet

Years of members, cars and dues sit in a file the previous secretary built, and every handover loses something. Join It holds all of it in one account the club owns, so the incoming committee logs in and carries on.

02

Collecting Dues at the Meeting Is Not a System

Cash at the meeting, checks in the mail and a card reader at the show all have to be matched to names by hand. Join It sends the reminders, takes payment online and marks the record paid, and you can still log a payment taken in person.

03

Printed Cards Are Out of Date by the Second Show

A printed card cannot tell the gate whether someone renewed, and reprinting every year costs money. Join It gives every member a digital card in Apple or Google Wallet that shows live status the moment their record changes.

Everything You Need

One Platform, Purpose-Built for Car Clubs

Join It replaces your scattered tools with a single platform your staff and volunteers can use, without a training manual.

Member Records

Every member, their vehicles, contact details and payment history in one searchable database.

Dues and Payments

Collect annual dues online or record cash and checks by hand. See who has paid and who is overdue at a glance.

Automations

Renewal reminders, overdue notices and failed-payment alerts go out for you, on the schedule you set.

Member Portal

Members renew, update their own details and their vehicles, and download their card without emailing the secretary.

Communications

Send announcements and newsletters to your whole community or to specific groups, straight from your member list.

Vehicle Records

Custom fields for make, model, year, class and modifications, kept on the member's record and filterable for shows and emails.

Member management

Keep Every Member Record Organized and Findable

Stop digging through a past officer's spreadsheet to find out what a member drives or when they last paid. Join It gives your committee one searchable member database, with every record, vehicle, note and payment in one place that any officer can reach.

  • Import your existing member list from a spreadsheet
  • Custom fields for make, model, year and modifications
  • Full payment and communication history on every record
  • Separate admin levels so volunteers see only what they need

Dues and Payments

Collect Dues Without Chasing Anyone at the Meeting

Set your dues once and let Join It do the collecting. Members get a payment link and a receipt, the record updates itself when they pay, and you see who is current and who is overdue without a ledger. Cash taken at the meeting can still be recorded by hand.

  • Online payments through Stripe, with automatic receipts
  • Reminders before and after the renewal date, sent for you
  • Family and joint memberships with one payment and a card each
  • Cash and check payments recorded on the member record

Automations and Self-Serve

Give Every Member a Card the Show Gate Can Check

Every member gets a digital card in Apple or Google Wallet showing live membership status, so whoever is on the gate at a show or a cruise can check it with any phone camera. Behind it sits a portal where members renew, update their details and add a new car.

  • Apple Wallet and Google Wallet cards with a scannable QR code
  • Card status updates automatically when a member renews or lapses
  • Printable cards for members without a smartphone
  • Member portal for renewing and updating vehicle details

Overall JoinIt has alleviated the very tedious tasks of managing a club of this size. We avoid mistakes, can track everything and our members can also self-serve with their information, payments, status etc. It is hard to express how easy member management has become for us since switching to JoinIT. And when we do have questions, the online technical support chat is second to none. They respond in a timely manner and they know their stuff and always polite and pleasant.

Common Questions

Car Club Committees Ask Us

What is car club membership software?

Car club membership software helps clubs manage members, vehicles, dues, renewals, events, communications, and member records from one central system.

Car clubs often need to track both the person and the vehicle. Join It helps organize member records, payment status, renewal dates, vehicle details, event participation, and communication preferences in one place. This gives club officers a clearer view of who belongs, what they drive, who has paid dues, and who is active in shows, cruises, and meetups.

Can car clubs import an existing member list?

Yes. Car clubs can import existing member records into Join It when moving from spreadsheets, paper rosters, or another system.

Many car clubs have years of member history stored in spreadsheets or files maintained by a previous officer. Importing that data helps preserve the club’s existing roster while making it easier to manage renewals and communications going forward. You can prepare fields like member name, email, phone, membership type, expiration date, and vehicle information before bringing the list into Join It.

Can car clubs record vehicle details?

Yes. Car clubs can use custom fields to record vehicle details such as make, model, year, trim, modifications, class, or registration-related information.

Vehicle information is often central to a car club’s identity. Custom fields let you track the details that matter to your club without forcing them into generic notes. This can help with show planning, class assignments, member spotlights, cruise eligibility, or communications by vehicle type. The details stay attached to the member record, so they are easier to find and maintain over time.

How do car club renewals and dues work?

Join It can help car clubs collect dues online, track membership status, and send renewal reminders so members stay current.

Club officers should not have to chase every renewal manually. Join It tracks expiration dates, payment history, active/expired status, and renewal reminders, helping your club keep dues collection organized. Members can pay online through Stripe, and admins can also record offline payments when dues are collected at a meeting, show, or club event.

Can car club members receive digital membership cards?

Yes. Car clubs on the Total plan and above can issue digital membership cards for Apple Wallet and Google Wallet.

Digital membership cards give members a convenient way to show current club status at shows, meets, partner venues, or club events. Cards can include member details and a scannable QR code for check-in or verification. Digital membership cards and check-in tools are available on the Total plan and above, helping clubs move beyond printed cards that can become outdated.

Can car clubs promote shows, cruises, and member meetups?

Yes. Join It can help car clubs communicate with members and connect event participation back to member records.

Car clubs often run cruise nights, rallies, shows, garage days, charity events, and member meetups. Join It can help your team target communications by membership type, vehicle details, location, or status, and integrations with tools like Mailchimp and Eventbrite can support promotion and registration. This makes event communication more organized than relying on scattered email lists or social posts alone.
