Give your regulars something to join
A club card, a course subscription, a supporter tier — whatever your community pays for on repeat. Plans sit in a Members section of your venue shop and bill every period on your own payment account.
Free to claim — open your shop and add your first plan. Members are billed on your own payment provider, with no Senvow per-sale fees.

Each row shows only the named platform's published pricing (August 2026) — check the sources below for current rates. Payment providers charge their own processing rates everywhere, including on Senvow; this table shows what the platform itself takes on top. Several of these pay out to your own Stripe too — the difference is that every one of them still takes a cut, a monthly fee, or both.

Sell memberships on SenvowWhat a venue membership is good for
Courses, clubs and supporters
One plan type covers a monthly course slot, a bar club card and a plain supporter tier — you decide what it means.
Paid on your own account
The subscription runs on your own PayPal, Stripe, Square or Mollie. Senvow never holds the money and takes nothing per payment.
Caps for limited spots
Set a member cap on a course and new subscriptions pause the moment it fills — no overbooked Tuesday evening.
A member price in your shop
An optional discount applies automatically at checkout on everything you sell — shown next to the regular price, with no code to enter.
Revenue between the busy nights
A quiet week still bills. Recurring plans smooth out the gap between the nights that fill the room.
Beside your products, not somewhere else
Plans appear in a Members section of the shop your regulars already open — no second link, no second account to explain.
Memberships beside your products
A Members section in your shop: courses with a cap, club cards with a discount, supporter tiers with nothing but thanks.

Where the money actually goes
Money goes to your own PayPal, Stripe, Square or Mollie account. We never hold it, so there is no payout to wait for.

How it works
Claim your venue
Claiming is free. It gives you the venue page, the shop and the manager view your members show up in.
Turn on your shop and connect a provider
PayPal, Stripe, Square or Mollie — the subscription is created on your account, so the money never passes through Senvow.
Add a membership plan
Title, description, price and cadence — daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, with an interval count. Add perks, an optional cap and an optional member discount.
Your regulars subscribe
Visitors to your venue page or shop see the plan with price and cadence spelled out. Once your provider confirms the payment, the membership is active.

Online payments run through your own payment provider account — we never hold your funds, and Senvow charges no per-sale fees (your chosen payment provider may charge its own processing fees). Your yearly sales volume counts both cash and online takings. Venue slots count the venues you actively own — set one to private or remove it and the slot frees up. Memberships renew yearly and can be cancelled anytime.
Venue membership questions
What does Senvow charge for a membership payment?
Nothing per payment. The subscription is created on your own payment provider, which charges its normal processing rate and settles the money to you. Senvow's own plans are a flat subscription that does not scale with what you sell.
Do I need an online shop to sell memberships?
Yes — plans live in a Members section of your venue shop, so the shop needs to be switched on and a payment provider connected. Both are free.
Can I limit how many people join?
Yes. Set a member cap and new subscriptions pause once it is reached, then reopen automatically when someone leaves — which is what makes it work for courses.
What happens when a member cancels?
They keep their perks and their member price until the end of the period they already paid for, then the membership lapses. If a renewal fails, they keep access for a 7-day grace window while your provider retries.
Who fulfils the perks?
You do. The perks list is your promise to your members — Senvow shows it on the plan card and applies the member discount automatically, but the free drink is poured by you.
Who handles refunds?
You do, in your payment provider's dashboard — exactly like your shop orders. A member can request one from their orders and you are notified.
