Membership management system cost — all of it at list price

2026-08-22 · MAEUM — an AI engineering company that publishes its prices
On MAEUM's price list, a membership management system is subscription = ₩1M/mo (Essential) (servers, operations and improvements included) or Private tier = ₩5M/mo (no monthly fee afterwards). We build member registration, payments, notifications and renewal management exactly the way you run your business, and your fee doesn't rise as your member count grows. The final price is fixed before signing, after scoping (₩0 for 5 sessions), and the working demo is free.

The moment you actually need membership software

Once you pass about 50 members, the spreadsheet-plus-messaging-app combination breaks down. Expiry dates get missed, unpaid fees go untracked, nobody remembers who came how many times. Academies, gyms, pilates studios, communities, study groups, workshops — the industries differ but the needs are the same.

The three questions that decide the cost

Quotes vary because of three variables. ① Are payments processed inside the system? — payment integration expands the scope. ② Do members need their own screens? — admin-only is smaller; a member app or page is larger. ③ How much existing data is there? — the migration scope from spreadsheets or a previous system changes the work.

MAEUM settles these variables during scoping (up to 90 minutes per session) and fixes the final price before you sign. We never bill for anything that wasn't disclosed in advance.

How it differs from subscription software — the per-member pricing trap

Look at most off-the-shelf membership software and pricing is tiered by member count. The better your business does, the more you pay. MAEUM's SaaS does not charge per member. Whether you have 300 members or 3,000, you use it within your plan; the difference between plans is the scope of operations, improvements and automation we perform each month.

And after launch, when your business changes — pass policies change, a new location opens — feature consultation and building are included in the monthly fee, with no separate development invoice.

Frequently asked questions

Does the fee go up as membership grows?
No. There's no per-member pricing. Member and staff accounts can grow without limit within your plan.
Can we migrate our existing spreadsheet member list?
Yes. Most exportable data (Excel, CSV) can be migrated; the scope is confirmed during scoping.
Can you build member-facing screens (an app)?
Yes. Many start admin-only and expand to member booking and lookup screens. On SaaS (managed), that expansion happens within the monthly fee.
What's the cheapest way to start?
Confirm the direction with a free demo, then start the build after one scoping session to get the ₩0 discount — on SaaS that means starting from around ₩750K including the free diagnosis (VAT excluded).
What happens to member data if we cancel?
The data is yours. We support exporting it when the contract ends.
