Give members a printable Membership card

Troubleshooting

“No Membership Cards available based on your Subscriptions.”

The member has no active Membership that’s ticked under Select Membership Plans. Expired Memberships don’t get a card.

The Membership Cards tab is missing

Save the module with the switch on, or tick the tab in the Member Portal showcase. See Set up the Member Portal.

The name is missing on the card

The card shows the name only when the member’s first and last name are both filled in.
