Meet an event’s membership requirement

Check the right participant and date

Participant membership checks the person selected for registration, including a family participant. Their activated membership must allow event registration and cover the event start date. If the event specifies an annual program, the membership must belong to that program.

Read the message under Participant membership: it says what’s missing.

Accept membership, then return

1. From the registration, choose a qualifying offer or the link to memberships for that person. It opens in a new tab.
2. Review the beneficiary, waiver and payment terms. Accept the membership and complete any payment needed to activate it.
3. Return to the event registration. Your answers stay on the page.
4. Check that the named membership qualifies for this event. Review the current registration total before confirming registration.

For event organizers

In the event’s membership requirement settings, choose Require qualifying membership. Select an Annual program or Any qualifying membership, review offers that can cover the event start date and save the event.

When adding a person without qualifying membership, an organizer can choose Allow an exception if this person has no qualifying membership and enter the Reason for the exception. The reason is saved if an exception is needed. This permits that event registration and creates no membership or insurance coverage.
