Websites for membership organisations

    Membership websites that grow your membership.

    One place where people join, renew, sign in and get what their membership promises.

    What a website from Nexus Studio gives membership organisations.

    A membership website from Nexus Studio gives a professional body, association or club one place where people join, renew, sign in and get what their membership promises. The public site makes the case for joining and takes the payment; the member portal behind it holds the directory, the gated resources, the events programme and each member's own record, with renewals handled automatically rather than chased by a volunteer with a spreadsheet. We build it as bespoke software you own, so it can connect to the CRM, accounting and email tools your organisation already uses instead of forcing you onto a platform's way of working. Every project starts with a map of the member journey from first visit to tenth renewal, and we stay on after launch to keep improving it. Prices start from £199 per month plus a one off setup fee based on what you need, with the full cost in a written proposal before anything is built.

    What we build for membership organisations.

    Membership Portals

    A member portal people actually use

    Sign in, the directory, gated resources, event bookings and each member's own record and renewal, designed so a member finds what they came for in two clicks.

    Custom Web Apps

    Joining, renewals and payments

    Tiers, discounts, automatic renewals and reminders, card and direct debit, and the exports your treasurer needs, without a volunteer chasing a spreadsheet.

    A public site that makes the case

    Why join, what members get and what it costs, written and designed to convert, with the join form one tap away on every page.

    How it works

    Four steps, for membership organisations.

    01

    Map the member journey

    First visit, joining, first renewal, tenth renewal, lapsing and returning. We map every step and where members fall away before we design a single screen.

    02

    Design join and renew

    The public site sells the membership and the join form takes the payment in one flow. Renewal is a single tap from an email, not a form to find.

    03

    Build the portal

    Sign in, directory, gated resources, events, each member's own record and the admin screens your team uses to run it, built as software you own.

    04

    Launch and connect your CRM

    We connect the portal to the CRM, accounting and email tools you already use, migrate your members, and stay on to keep renewals climbing.

    How we work with membership organisations

    • The portal is built as software you own, so it connects to your CRM instead of replacing it.
    • You get a written proposal with the full cost before any work begins, and prices start from £199 per month plus a one off setup fee.
    • We migrate your existing members and their renewal dates, so nobody has to join twice.

    Questions membership organisations ask us.

    Yes. Members can renew by card or direct debit on a schedule you set, with reminder emails before and after the date and a one tap renewal link for anyone who prefers to pay each year. Lapsed members keep their record so returning is easy.

    Yes, with each member choosing what they share. The directory can be public, members only, or split by tier, and it can carry specialisms, regions and contact preferences so people find the right colleague.

    No. The portal connects to it. Joins, renewals and profile changes flow into the CRM you have, and the portal reads back from it, so your team keeps working in the tool they know with the data in one place.

    Yes. Events, courses and conferences with member and non member pricing, capacity limits, waiting lists, calendar invites and the attendee list your organiser needs on the day.

    Yes. Student, individual, corporate, retired, honorary, and whatever else your rules allow, each with its own price, benefits and access to content. Upgrades and downgrades are handled without a phone call to the office.

    We import your current list with tiers, renewal dates and payment status, send each member a set your password email when you are ready, and run the old and new systems side by side for as long as you need.

    Let's map your member journey.
