The self-hosted Join It alternative
Membora — Self-Hosted Membership Register: Standing, Quorum, Motions — Self-hosted membership register for clubs and associations: who is in good standing, whether a meeting was quorate, and whether a motion actually carried. Own it once, run it on your own server, and stop paying Join It every month.
Stop renting Join It
3 months of Join It equals this one-time price.
Assumption: The Starter monthly price. The subscription is only half the meter — a percentage of every subscription payment goes to the vendor as well, and buying a higher tier is how you reduce it. Membora records what was paid and takes no percentage of anything.
How Join It pricing grows with you
Join It meters TWICE: a monthly fee, and a percentage of every membership payment your members make — and the way to pay a smaller percentage is to pay a bigger monthly fee.

Who should stay with Join It
Stay with Join It if you want members to join and pay through the tool itself. Membora has no payment processing at all — it records what was paid and derives standing from it. Full honest limitations are on the product page.
Why owning beats renting Join It
- One payment. No monthly, per-seat, or per-location fees — the license is perpetual.
- Your data stays on your server. It never lives in Join It's cloud.
- No plan ceilings. Records and users are limited by your hosting, not a pricing tier.
- It keeps working if the vendor doesn't. Self-hosted software can't be sunset or price-hiked out from under you.
Fair trade-offs: you host it, back it up, and apply updates yourself — see the product page for honest limitations, and the full Membora — Self-Hosted Membership Register: Standing, Quorum, Motions vs Join It comparison.
