Overview
This article will explain how a club administrator can create membership options on Foireann. Just so you know, this is an administrator-only task.
Depending on how the membership options are set up, these will either be available for your club members to choose their membership or just for club administrators to choose when registering members.
Membership Options must be created regardless of whether your club facilitates online payments or not. These options are the different membership packages your club offers and will outline the member type, the playing status and the cost of membership. Examples typically include Full Membership, Youth Membership, Social Membership, Playing / Non-Playing options etc. |

Create a Membership Option
To create a Membership Option, please see the instructions below:
1. Navigate to the Membership section of Foireann via the main navigation menu on the left-hand side of the screen.
2. If you are an Administrator of more than one Club, you will need to select the Club for which you want to create the membership options.
3. You can always change the Unit you are viewing from within the Administration page using the Unit selector dropdown beside the section heading.
4. Click the 'Membership Options' tab
5. Click the Add Membership Options button.
There are four main sections to complete when creating a Membership Option:
- Membership Option Description
- Membership Configuration
- Price & Visibility
- Payment Options
And one optional section for questions
- Capture Additional Information
6. Within the Membership Option Description section, complete the following fields:
Section | What it is |
Season | The year of the membership |
Membership Option |
Name of the membership option |
Description |
A small explanation of the membership option |
Status |
Active = Available for selection, visible to all club members Draft = Not available for selection, only visible to club administrators |
7. Within the Membership Configuration section, you can configure who the membership option is intended for i.e Adults, Youths, Players, Non-Players.
-
To add an adult to the membership option, click ‘Add Adult’
-
To add youth to the membership option, click ‘Add Youth’
Depending on your association i.e GAA, LGFA, Camogie, the membership types will vary when adding Adult. |
8. Within the Price and Visibility section, you can determine the cost of the membership option and who the option is available for.
Section | What it is |
Online Visibility (Who can see the option online) |
Club Admins - This option is only visible for Club Admins Everyone - This option is visible to everyone |
Who can order this Membership Option? (Who can order the option online) |
Everyone - Everyone can order a membership Club Members - Only Club Members can order a membership Club Admins - Only Club Admins can order a membership |
For example, you may have Online Visibility = Everyone but Order = Club Admins, this means that everyone can see the option but only club admins can select it to purchase.
9. Within the Payment Options section, you can decide how the membership option can be paid. You can enable multiple payment options so that your members can choose which one suits them when completing their online membership orders. The three main options are:
- Single Card Payment - One-time payment online
- Instalments - Multiple payments online spread over a number of months
- Pay Later In Club - Member pays via an alternative payment method i.e cash
If you don’t have a Stripe account set up and active, then the option for online payments i.e. single online and instalments, will not be available for selection. For more information, please see the following help guide on how to set up a Foireann-linked Stripe account - Setting up a Foireann-linked Stripe account |
10. Within Capture Additional Information these are questions that you can set to find out more information about the members. This is optional so you are not required to do this.

11. Once you are happy with the Membership Option, click ‘Save’.
