Membership management, dues and events for your club, without a per-contact bill.

No card required. Set up in minutes.

Wild Apricot is a long-standing membership-management tool for associations and non-profits, priced by how many contacts you store. ClubCP covers the same core, recurring memberships, dues, a member database, events and a public page, and stays free no matter how many members you have.

What Wild Apricot costs: Wild Apricot is a paid membership-management platform priced by contact count, so the bill grows as your club grows. ClubCP costs your club nothing to run, with every feature included. On a paid ticket or membership, the service fee is added at checkout and paid by the buyer, so your club still receives the full price it set.

Wild Apricot prices were read from Wild Apricot's own published pricing, and are correct to the best of our knowledge as at August 2026. Rivals change their pricing, so check theirs before you decide. If anything here is out of date or wrong, tell us at support@clubcp.app and we will correct it.

When Wild Apricot is the better choice

No tool wins for everyone. Wild Apricot is the stronger pick when:

  • You are a formal association or non-profit that needs a full website builder, deep accounting exports and mature admin roles, and you have the budget for it.
  • You rely on features like automated membership-level workflows and detailed financial reporting that a paid platform provides.

Frequently asked questions

Is ClubCP a free Wild Apricot alternative?

Yes. ClubCP handles memberships, dues, a member database and events at no cost to the club, with no per-contact pricing. Paid memberships and tickets carry a service fee of 5% + A$0.80, added at checkout and paid by the member.

Does the price go up as I add members?

No. ClubCP is free to your club regardless of how many members or contacts you have, and it stays free however much you collect, because the service fee on a paid membership or ticket is added at checkout and paid by the member rather than billed to you.

Can I take recurring dues?

Yes. Recurring memberships and dues are built in and handled through Stripe.
