Assumption: The smallest published band — 100 contacts — at the monthly price, which is the one a club can walk away from. Every band above it costs more for the same features. Membora is $59 once, for any number of members.

How WildApricot pricing grows with you

WildApricot meters by CONTACT COUNT: the features are identical on every package, so what you are buying with the higher tiers is permission to have more members.

Who should stay with WildApricot

Stay with WildApricot if you want the website, the event registration and the payment processing in one place. Membora is the register and the meeting: standing, quorum and motions, with your bank left as your bank. Full honest limitations are on the product page.

Why owning beats renting WildApricot

  • One payment. No monthly, per-seat, or per-location fees — the license is perpetual.
  • Your data stays on your server. It never lives in WildApricot'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 WildApricot comparison.
