Membership Types

Most museums and collecting organizations have memberships with varying levels of support. You can set up your membership types and their corresponding dues amounts on the Setup Contacts screen, found under Settings | Contacts Settings. Membership types listed on this screen will be available in the Membership Type drop-down list on the Membership accordion.  It is recommended that you set up your membership types before creating memberships in Contacts.
