How To Create A Membership Agreement

How to Write a Membership Agreement

There are no set rules when it comes to creating your membership agreement. Every organization is different, so their agreements are highly customized to their needs.

When coming up with your own, think about your members’ experience with your membership and what rules and guidelines you need to put into place (no matter how obvious they may seem).

To help you get started, here are a few common elements that a typical membership agreement might include:

The member’s name and the name of your organization or membership site

The date on which the agreement comes into effect

A list of benefits or services that the member will receive as part of their membership

The cost of membership and the payment schedule

A list of actions on the member’s part that would be considered a breach of the agreement, as well as the consequences of those actions

A statement indicating that the member will not hold your organization or other members liable for any damage, financial loss, action or inaction, etc.

A statement indicating that you will not share members’ personal information

A statement indicating how this agreement may be terminated by either party

A statement indicating that by signing the agreement, both parties agree to follow the terms and conditions outlined within it

A place for both parties to sign and fill in the date on which the agreement was signed
