<aside> Staff, or your team’s entries, memberships are best managed using a dedicated setup.

This ensures reporting clarity and helps keep staff perks separate from standard products. We strongly recommend creating a specific Entry Type for staff use—this keeps things tidy and makes reporting much easier later.

<aside> ⚠️ ATTENTION: This set up is not for climbers membership/recurring subscriptions - this guide is solely intended for granting free access to your staff.

</aside>

You have two main options depending on how you’d like staff to access the facility!

FAQs

• Why do I need a dedicated entry type for staff, can’t I just issue a day pass for free?
• Can I prevent staff memberships from being sold accidentally?
• Will guest entries renew automatically?

⤷ Option 01: Specific Entry Type for staff

<aside>

Create a unique Entry Type just for staff and issue it manually to staff profiles.

• Pros:
  • Fully controlled, only managers (or higher) can assign it
  • Not visible or available for sale in the POS
  • No need to collect a payment method
• Cons:
  • Does not renew automatically, if you want recurring benefits (like monthly guest entries), this won't work out of the box (See Option 2)

Best for gyms that want to issue access on a fixed schedule (e.g., 6 months at a time), without automatic billing or subscription logic.

<aside> ⚠️ ATTENTION: If choosing this Option, BETA highly suggests that no Pass Price is attributed to the Entry Type.

⤷ Option 02: Discounted Staff Recurring Pass Price

<aside>

Set up a specific Recurring Pass Price (e.g., $1/month) linked to a dedicated staff Entry Type, then create a Promotion that applies only to that pass price.

• Pros:
  • Acts like a regular subscription, tautomatically renews, so guest entries and perks reset monthly
• Cons:
  • Must be sold through the POS (ensure it’s hidden from online sales)
  • Requires capturing a payment method (to avoid billing issues)
    • You can bypass this by assigning a positive balance (e.g., +$12 to cover a 12-month cycle for your employee). Follow along to adjust the Subscription Credit/Debit Balance.

This option is ideal if your staff need auto-renewing benefits, and if you do wish to use subscription billing for your staff’s purchases.

<aside> ⚠️ ATTENTION: If selecting this option, ensure that your staff is aware that this should NOT be sold at the POS
