Add-On Cart for Member Retention & Growth

As a leading provider of membership management software, we strive to equip our clients (associations, chambers, and professional networks) with integrations that scale alongside their ambitions. The Glue Up Add-On Cart offers several enhancements you can purchase to switch on fresh capabilities and keep every workflow under one roof.

In this post, we’ll share the most popular add-ons in H1 2025 and break down exactly what each integration or activation delivers, whether that’s smoother billing, better email open rates, deeper member engagement, or faster board reporting.

So, keep reading to decide which to switch on first.

Glue Up + QuickBooks Integration – Close Your Books in Minutes, Not Days

Kicking off our list of H1 2025 favorites, QuickBooks Integration delivers on the promise of a fully connected finance workspace inside Glue Up’s AI-powered membership management platform. While the world’s leading accounting solution already excels at multicurrency ledgers, automated bank feeds, and board-ready financials, integrating it with Glue Up links every revenue stream in one continuous flow, making it ideal for large associations and chambers. Here’s how:

Event registrations leave the event module and post directly to the general ledger
Chapter dues carry class and location tags that stay intact after sync
Jurisdiction-specific tax rules apply automatically to sponsorships and ticket sales
Refunds and partial payments return to real-time dashboards without manual edits

Why Membership Directors Choose It

Across the Glue Up network, QuickBooks is among the first add-ons directors opt for because it quickly translates member activity into accurate, audit-ready financial data:

Real-Time Ledger Sync – A conference ticket sold in California updates QuickBooks and your cash-flow widget before the attendee gets the confirmation email.
Financial Automation for Associations – Class, location, and chapter tags follow each invoice, so month-end never needs a spreadsheet merge.
Tax-Compliant Billing – Ontario and Illinois chapters bill the same package, yet each invoice automatically shows the correct GST/HST or state sales tax line.
Advanced Reporting Tools – Treasurers pull drill-down P&Ls whenever needed, not a week later.

Glue Up + Paygage Gateway – Capture Member Payments Every Time

Paygage appears in the Glue Up Add-On Cart as a payment gateway explicitly built for professional communities such as associations, chambers, and nonprofits.

It accepts Visa, Mastercard, Amex, PayPal, and ACH e-checks, supports online and in-person transactions, and operates across the US and EMEA, including Africa. So, expanding organizations can rely on one processor as they grow.

Once Paygage is connected to Glue Up, your finance view simplifies instantly:

Unified ledger entry — every renewal invoice, event ticket, and sponsorship fee posts to one real-time record in Glue Up’s finance module.
Granular Paygage reporting — gross amount, transaction fee, net revenue, gateway transaction ID, and payout ID are visible for every charge inside Glue Up.

Why Membership Directors Choose It

Paygage turns inconsistent cash flow into predictable revenue without extra administrative work:

Smart Payment Processing for Events and Dues — A card that declines at midnight retries during banking hours, recovering revenue while staff sleep.
Recurring Payment System for Chambers — Annual dues renew automatically, and ACH e-checks settle without manual follow-up.
Member Payment Solutions on Any Device — Branded links in reminder emails open a two-tap checkout on desktop and mobile, boosting completion rates.
Global Reach, Local Compliance — US and EMEA chapters use one gateway, yet Paygage applies region-specific rules behind the scenes.

Looking for friction-free dues collection across the US, EMEA, and Africa? Contact your Glue Up account manager for a ten-minute Paygage Integration tutorial—push live transactions, watch failed charges recover automatically, and forecast renewals more confidently.

Glue Up + Community Engagement– Ignite Member Dialogue In A Branded Digital Hub

Next on our add-on cart is Community Engagement, which transforms your membership database into a social space. The upgrade unlocks a mobile-first newsfeed, topic forums, direct messaging, polls, AI sentiment alerts, and deep engagement analytics—everything housed in the platform you already use for events, campaigns, and finance.

Why Membership Directors Choose It

Centralized Community Feed — Chapters, committees, and special-interest groups share updates in one timeline, ending the sprawl of third-party forums.
Branded Mobile Experience — Members browse, comment, and RSVP inside the MyGlue app, keeping your logo front and center on every device.
Targeted Push Notifications — Event and renewal reminders reach only the segments that need them, boosting opens and reducing noise.
Engagement Analytics Dashboard — AI-driven reporting surfaces top contributors, silent churn risks, and sentiment trends before renewal season.

Glue Up + Dedicated Subdomain – Build Trust with a Branded Member Portal

Prospects decide in seconds whether your organization feels credible. A dedicated subdomain (for example, members.yourassociation.org) places every Glue Up event, dues invoice, and community feed under your web address, reinforcing brand consistency and easing member log-ins across devices.

Why Membership Directors Choose It

Membership leaders turn to this add-on when they need a fast, brand-strengthening win that connects every Glue Up touchpoint back to their web address:

Consistent Brand Experience — Members move from your public site to the portal without seeing a domain change, which increases trust and completion rates.
Custom Domain Portal Visibility — Search engines index events and resources under your URL, supporting SEO for future campaigns.
Single Sign-On Flexibility — IT teams map SSO to the subdomain so staff and members use existing credentials—no extra passwords to forget.
Analytics and Reporting Dashboard Alignment — Traffic from the subdomain flows to the same Google Analytics property, giving marketing a complete funnel view.

Want your portal to carry your name, not ours? Ping your Glue Up account manager for a 10-minute subdomain setup session—secure the URL, enable SSL, and let members enjoy a seamless branded experience today.

Glue Up + Dedicated IP Address – Protect Your Sender Reputation And Reach More Inboxes

Email remains the lifeline for renewal notices, event invitations, and community updates. When those messages share a crowded server, one bad sender can sink everyone’s reputation. A dedicated IP address in Glue Up isolates your outbound email, giving you full control over deliverability and allowing mailbox providers to trust your domain alone.

Why Membership Directors Choose It

Directors turn to a dedicated IP when revenue hinges on consistent inbox placement:

Separate Sender Reputation — Your quarterly newsletter lands in the primary tab instead of “Promotions,” lifting open rates on the first send.
Higher Deliverability Scores — ISPs evaluate only your campaigns, so automated dues reminders avoid spam filters and reach members on schedule.
Easier Troubleshooting And Monitoring — If bounce rates spike, you trace the issue to your list health, no guessing whether another organization triggered a block.
Stronger Brand Trust — Headers show your association’s domain and IP, reinforcing legitimacy and lowering unsubscribe rates.

Need to keep critical emails out of spam? Schedule a ten-minute dedicated-IP setup session with your Glue Up account manager—lock in a clean reputation and watch deliverability climb on your next send.

Glue Up + White-Label MyGlue App – Put Your Brand In Every Member’s Pocket

The White-Label MyGlue App publishes a fully branded iOS and Android app—your icon, colors, fonts, and login screen—so members engage, network, and pay dues inside an experience that looks 100% yours. Glue Up’s AI-powered CRM powers every event, invoice, and community thread they tap, yet the storefront carries only your name.

Why Membership Directors Choose It

A branded mobile hub keeps your organization top-of-mind and inbox-free:

Branded Mobile Experience — Members see your logo and palette on every screen, boosting trust and app adoption.
Push Notifications that Convert — Renewal reminders and event updates hit lock screens, lifting open rates and cutting missed deadlines.
Digital Membership Cards — Scannable QR codes replace paper badges at check-in, easing staffing and reducing costs.
All-In-One Engagement — Event calendars, dues payments, and community feeds sit under one icon, ending the need for multiple apps.

Want members to tap your logo, not a browser tab? Book a 20-minute white-label kickoff with your Glue Up account manager—submit assets, watch your test build appear, and see your branded app hit both stores before the next campaign.
