Hidden Membership Packages
You can choose to hide a membership type from user selection under the advanced settings on the membership type page, so that they are not visible by users when selecting a membership type.
These can be accessed by a QR code or QR code link. Follow the steps in specific membership types above to create a QR code for one of these.
For example; if you want to provide a certain person or group with a tailored membership type, but not make it available to all users, these specific users can be sent a QR code or link that will enable to access that type.
Locations
It is possible to create locations and associate them with a QR code.
This can help to see where users are scanning the QR codes.
You will need to make a QR code for each location.
Create a location and associate it to a QR code
- To create a location go to Locations.
- Click “New Location”.

- Go to the QR code page for the QR code you want to add a location.
- Select the location in the “Location” drop down.
- Click “Save”.
QR code error correction
The QR codes are set to the highest level of error correction so they can still be scanned even with up to 30% of the QR obscured. This includes the image on the QR code as the image is obscuring some of the QR code. This makes them ideal for using outdoors, where damage may occur.
