Guests and sponsorship
Invite a guest to the club and sponsor someone who applies.
As a member, you can open the club to people you know. Invite a guest for a few hours, or give a sponsor code to someone who applies to become a member. Both are in the Invitations tab of My account.
1. Invite a guest
A guest gets a temporary account at your club, for example to join you for an afternoon. Select the Invitations tab, then Club guests.
- Enter the Guest email.
- Choose the Access duration: 12 hours, 24 hours or 48 hours. The temporary account starts when the guest accepts.
- Select Send invitation. The page confirms Invitation sent to … and the guest receives an email to accept it.
A new invitation for 48 hours to sophie@example.com, below Alex Morgan's pending invitation. The control to use is outlined in orange.
If the guest already has a pending invitation or active access, the form says An invitation is already pending for this email. or This guest already has active access., and Send invitation stays unavailable.
guest@example.com already has a pending invitation from Alex Morgan, and Clara Fontaine is visiting as his guest.
2. Follow your invitations
My guest invitations lists the people you invited. Under each one, a line gives the access duration and when the link stops working, for example 24 hours · link valid until followed by a date. Once the guest has accepted, it shows Access until and the end of their access.
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Invitation pending | The guest has not accepted yet. |
| Invitation expired | The guest did not accept in time. |
| Guest access active | The guest is using their temporary account. |
| Guest access ended | The access duration is over. |
For an expired invitation or an ended access, select Invite again. The form fills in with the same email and duration: check them and select Send invitation.
3. Sponsor a new member
Some clubs ask applicants for codes from current members. Select Sponsorship.
Alex Morgan's sponsor codes: one still available and one used by the applicant Lucas Demo.
- Select Generate a code. A new code appears in the list as Available.
- Select Copy and send the code to the person you sponsor.
- They enter it in their application, in a field such as Sponsor code 1. See Complete and sign your application.
Each code works once. When it is used, it shows Used with the applicant's name and the date, as for H3RT-W9AB above. To cancel a code you no longer want to give, select Revoke, then Revoke again in Revoke this code?: the code stops working, even for someone you already gave it to. Only available codes can be copied or revoked.
You can keep up to 5 codes that nobody has used yet. Beyond that, the page says You can keep at most 5 unused sponsor codes. Revoke one first.
Membership required
You need a valid membership to sponsor. Without one, the page shows A valid membership is required to sponsor and a View my membership link.
