What's included

Everything from application to active member

📝
Custom application fields
Add any fields your organization needs — dropdowns, checkboxes, long-text answers, yes/no toggles. Collect certifications, interest areas, referrals, or anything else upfront.
Admin approval workflow
Applications land in your dashboard as pending. Review each one and approve or decline with a single click. Optionally set auto-approval for open-enrollment periods.
💳
Dues triggered on approval
Once approved, members receive a payment link for their tier's dues. No manual follow-up — the billing flow starts automatically.
📄
By-laws and policy links
Link to your by-laws and membership policy directly on the application page. Applicants read and acknowledge them before submitting.
🔗
A shareable URL you control
Your join page lives at your-org.clublounge.app/signup — or on your own custom domain. Put the link on your website, in a newsletter, or anywhere you promote membership.
📬
Applicant notifications
Applicants get an email confirmation on submission and another when they're approved. No manual outreach needed.
👥
Bulk approve
Reviewing a batch of new applicants after a conference or event? Select them all and approve in one action.
🗂️
Pending queue separate from active members
Applicants stay in a dedicated pending tab until approved. Your active member list stays clean.
How it works

From 'Contact Us' to a real application in an afternoon

1
Build your application form
Choose which fields to show — name and email are built in. Add custom questions specific to your organization in minutes.
2
Share your join link
Put the link on your website's "Join Us" or "Apply" page. Replace the Google Form, PDF, or contact form that was there before.
3
Review and approve
Incoming applications show up in your dashboard. Approve them one by one or in bulk. Approved members get access and a dues payment link automatically.
What admins tell us after switching
We replaced a PDF application, a PayPal link, and a spreadsheet with one page. New members get approved and billed in the same workflow.
Built for sports federations, professional chapters, and alumni associations

Why organizations replace Google Forms and PDFs

A Google Form collects data. It doesn't review applicants, approve members, trigger dues, or update your roster. Club Lounge does all of that — automatically.

vs Google Forms
  • Applications go straight into your member roster
  • Built-in approval workflow — no manual follow-up
  • Dues triggered automatically on approval
  • Professional branded page, not a generic form
vs PDF / email applications
  • No inbox archaeology or manual data entry
  • Applicants get real-time confirmations
  • Everything tracked in one place
  • Works on mobile without printing or scanning
More than one feature

Winning pages should expose the rest of the system.

The buyer rarely wants one isolated tool. These adjacent pages reinforce the bigger promise: Club Lounge replaces the admin patchwork, not just one task.
