How to Increase Member Pricing on Squarespace

How MemberSpace Helps You Update Member Pricing

With MemberSpace, increasing your pricing is done through a pricing migration.

Here’s how it works:

1. Create your new pricing plan
2. Disable the old plan so no new members join it
3. Request a migration to move existing members
4. Choose how you want the change applied:
   • Immediately (with proration)
   • Or at the next billing cycle

Once that’s set, MemberSpace will:

• Move your members to the new plan
• Handle billing updates automatically
• Apply prorated charges or credits if needed

No manual updates. No awkward re-signup process.

Example: Increasing Membership Pricing

Let’s say:

• You currently charge $10/month
• You’ve added more content and want to increase it to $15/month

With MemberSpace, you can:

• Create a new $15/month plan
• Migrate your existing members to it
• Choose whether the change happens now or at their next billing date

If it happens mid-cycle, MemberSpace automatically calculates:

• What they’ve already paid
• What they owe moving forward

Everything is handled behind the scenes.

Why This Matters for Growing Your Membership

At some point, every membership business needs to adjust pricing.

Maybe you:

• Add more value
• Expand your content library
• Introduce new features

If you can’t update pricing for existing members, you’re stuck with outdated rates forever.

With the ability to migrate members to new pricing, you can:

• Keep your pricing consistent
• Increase revenue as your business grows
• Avoid confusing or frustrating your members
