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. ClubLounge does all of that — automatically.
