membermojo

Overview

Membermojo is a web service for clubs, associations and charities that need one place for applications, member records, renewals and payments. It is strongest for small and mid-sized organisations that want member self-service without giving up administrative control. The annual, membership-count pricing is predictable, although some useful integrations sit behind the £95 tier.

Members can join, renew and edit their details on a computer, tablet or phone through the member portal. Administrators get a spreadsheet-style record view, sorting and filtering, multiple administrator accounts, and separate view or edit permissions. That combination suits volunteer-run groups where several people share duties and members should keep routine information current.

Key features

All plans include a membership database, automated renewal reminders, mailing lists, a member directory, an attendance register and membership-card images. PayPal and offline payments are included, so a small club can handle common collection methods without assembling separate tools.

Membership can be structured for individuals or families. Renewal dates can follow a financial year or each application date, while joining fees and approval-before-payment rules accommodate selective or subscription-based organisations. Custom fields can hold emergency contacts, medical information and administrator-only notes; members can maintain their own records while private notes remain administrative.

Records can be imported from Microsoft Access, Excel and similar applications, and the complete database can be exported as a spreadsheet. This is useful when moving an established register or retaining an offline copy. PayPal and Stripe are supported online processors, with money sent directly to the organisation's account; processor charges are separate from Membermojo fees. Stripe, a member store, phone wallet cards and Mailchimp require the £95/year plan or higher. Mailchimp integration therefore is not an option on the entry paid tier.

Member totals include paid and pending members plus retained lapsed-member records, but exclude the download-only archive. Once a limit is exceeded, an upgrade is required, so retaining historical records can affect which tier you need. Membermojo says data is held in a UK data centre, mirrored in real time, and encrypted backups are made hourly to a second UK data centre. Card and account details do not pass through its systems; TLS is provided through Cloudflare and passwords use one-way, salted multi-pass hashing.

Pricing

The free plan is a sensible fit for a club with no more than 50 counted members. At £50 per year, the 100-member tier is inexpensive for a growing group but excludes Stripe, Mailchimp, the store and phone wallet cards, making it best for PayPal or offline collection. The £95 tier is the practical starting point for those integrations and covers 500 members; larger organisations pay progressively higher annual fees rather than monthly charges. A fully functional 60-day trial requires no payment details until conversion and carries no commitment.

Platforms

Membermojo runs on the web, with access from PCs, tablets and phones. Its member portal supports self-service renewals and profile updates across those devices. Online payments can use card or bank methods through the configured processor.

Who it's for

Choose Membermojo for a local club, association or charity that needs structured membership levels, approvals, reminders and shared administration, especially when a UK-hosted service and spreadsheet import/export matter. It is less suitable if you require Stripe or Mailchimp but have fewer than 500 members and do not want to pay for the £95 tier, or if you need a native mobile app rather than browser access.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Useful free entry point: organisations with up to 50 counted members pay nothing.
• Strong administration controls: custom fields, permissions, multiple administrators and approval workflows cover varied club operations.
• Self-service included: members can join, renew and update details, reducing routine administrator work.
• Clear annual scaling: capacities from 100 to 10,000 members are matched to published VAT-inclusive fees.
• UK-focused safeguards: UK storage, hourly encrypted backups and processor separation address common governance concerns.

Cons

• Integration threshold: Stripe, Mailchimp, the store and wallet cards require £95/year or more.
• Historical records consume capacity: retained lapsed members count toward limits unless moved to the download-only archive.
• Web only: there is no listed native Android or iOS application.
• Payment costs are additional: PayPal or Stripe processor fees sit outside the subscription.

Alternatives

For a broader shortlist, see Membership Management Software and Membership Billing Software.

• Raklet is a freemium Android/iOS service whose free tier allows 100 contacts, one admin and 1,250 emails monthly; choose it when mobile apps and email quotas matter more than Membermojo's UK web focus.
• memberplanet offers web, Android and iOS access, unlimited members and admins on Basic, with a $50/month Essentials plan and a 2% platform fee; it suits groups prioritising broad user limits and mobile platforms.
• MembershipWorks is web-based with a free 50-account tier and paid monthly account bands; choose it if monthly billing is preferable.
• PushPress provides Android, iOS and web plans, including a free option with unlimited leads, admins, members and staff but transaction fees; it is aimed at organisations accepting those fee terms.
• GrowthZone is a paid Android, iOS, API and web platform with plans built around unlimited members and contact records.
• Memship is free, self-hosted software with no subscriptions or per-member fees; pick it when controlling deployment is more important than hosted convenience.
• Mybers has a free web/mobile starter plan with unlimited members and 500 emails per month, making it a fit for organisations that need generous free capacity.
• Pelcro offers freemium web and mobile plans, including 100 customers free, for teams whose customer-oriented model fits better.

Verdict

Membermojo is a strong choice for clubs, associations and charities wanting affordable, self-service membership administration with clear annual limits and UK-oriented data handling. Choose it for the integrated records, renewals, permissions and payment workflow; look elsewhere if native mobile apps or lower-tier Stripe and Mailchimp access are essential.
