When registering your members, there are three key stages which are outlined below:

REGISTERING / VERIFYING MEMBERS

If your club is wishing to accept online payments via Foireann for your club membership then your club members can begin their registration process themselves. For more information on Online Payments, please see the following link: Online Registration.

This link will provide step-by-step instructions which your club members can follow to pay their registration to the club and begin their registration process. 

When an LGFA member has successfully paid on Foireann, their membership record will update to ‘Fees Due to LGFA’ 

It is also important that as a club administrator you verify your members on Foireann. Please follow the instructions listed in the following link: Member Verification to verify your members. As a club, regardless if you have completed all other steps outlined in this guide, if you have not verified your members, they will not be assigned a membership ID on the system once fees have been paid and the LGFA have approved.

• • They will be able to edit the information listed by clicking on the ‘Edit Profile’ button.
  • If the membership option has more than one member listed, the information and code of conduct will need to be reviewed and confirmed for each individual.
