Customizing Your Club

1. Edit the Cover

We recommend using your own photos and videos, as it builds trust and visualises your real events and it’s atmosphere! It also helps to create a unique offer and share emotions. However, there is also an option to use the stock search feature to find the perfect cover image or GIF for your club.

  • Setting a global location makes your club visible everywhere and is ideal for online events and broader communication.

Membership Options

By default, clubs are free to join. You can, however, create paid tiers for additional benefits or exclusive content.

  2. Describe the value and benefits for each tier.
  3. Optionally, add discounts for future paid events exclusive to specific tiers.
  4. You can add partners offering discounts to your members or promote partner brands for credibility. These partners will be visible in the tier description. Discounts can also be shared in club chats.

Pricing Plans and Currencies

  • Members can subscribe to one plan per club at a time.
  • Choose billing frequencies: Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annual, or Annual.
  • By default prices in your home currency. In Locals we support multiple currencies, so you can adjust end preview for different currencies.

Club Visibility

Choose between Public and Private visibility:

  • Public: Anyone on Locals can view and join your club. Friends on Locals will be notified about the new club.

  • Private: Only accessible via a direct link.

    ⚠️ You can always change the visibility of your club later. 

By following these steps, you can create a vibrant and engaging club tailored to your community’s needs.
