Work With Memberships

In the Filmbot web admin in Memberships > Purchased, you can find a membership by entering a Membership Code, Primary Email, Secondary Email (for Dual members), or Last Name in the appropriate field, then clicking the Filter button.

Once you find the appropriate membership in the list, you can simply click on the Membership Code to see all of that member's details.

Note: if you have multiple sites that are part of a Linked Membership Domain, you'll want to be sure to search for a member's account on the site where the membership was originally purchased.

Members can update their contact information, billing method and renew their membership via the link provided to them at the bottom of their membership email confirmation and expiration reminders.

The member page will show if/when the renewal payment was made and when their current membership is scheduled to renew in the Current Term Ends field.

If you want to manually update or renew a member via the web admin, visit Memberships > Purchased, find the member, and you'll see links to that member's Update and Renew pages once you hover your pointer over their Membership Code. (Note: because monthly memberships automatically renew, they will not have a Renew link.)

If the member can't find their Update or Renewal link and asks for it to be sent, you can also copy the URL of the Renew or Update link from the web admin to provide to them in a separate email.

You can extend the expiration date of any annual membership by finding and clicking on the Membership Code of the member, changing the Current Term Ends field to the desired expiration, then clicking Save Membership. (Note: this wil not count as a renewal.)

You can resend an order confirmation by finding and clicking on the Membership Code of the member, clicking on the Order ID for that membership, and clicking the Email Order Confirmation button.

Your monthly members can cancel their own accounts by visiting the link provided to them at the bottom of their membership email confirmation.

If you need to cancel a monthly member at the end of their next billing period, you can visit Memberships > Purchased in the web admin, find the member, and click on the Update link. You'll find a Cancel Renewal button there.

Annual members will automatically expire if they don't renew their membership, and generally don't require cancellation.

In the event you do need to immediately disable and cancel any membership, you can find and click on the Membership Code of the member, change the Current Term Ends field to yesterday's date, then click Save Membership.

If you need to immediately cancel a membership before its expiration and provide a prorated refund, that transaction would need to take place in your Stripe Dashboard once the membership has been cancelled. In the Stripe Dashboard, find the customer's last membership payment in the list of transactions, then click on the Refund button in the upper right-hand corner to provide the amount of the refund. (Note: refunds issued in Stripe will not appear in Filmbot reports.)
