A free mobile app is available to all members of associations that use the GrowthZone software. By providing your members with the MemberPlus mobile app, your association is offering so much more than easy, direct access to your association office. Mobile apps, downloadable on any Apple or Android mobile phone or tablet, create a brand new multimedia channel for retaining and engaging your members, especially those who already are active mobile users. While people of all ages use mobile apps, a mobile member app will often appeal to younger members. However, even older members appreciate the ease of using a mobile app on their smartphones or tablets.
Download this InfoGraphic to promote the app to your members.

With the MemberPlus App your members will be able to:

- View and register for events

IMPORTANT! The functions in the MemberPlus App are available based on the members' access level. This is the access level to the InfoHub.
There’s no additional cost to your association or your members. The MemberPlus app is available in both the iTunes and Google Play stores. It’s designed for your members, much like the GrowthZone Staff app was designed for you to use. Essentially we wanted to create an easier way for your members to update their personal and company information, register for events, interact with other members, access the Resource center, etc…

NOTE: Options available in the navigation menu will be dependent on what you have implemented in your database. For Example: If you have multiple directories each will be displayed OR if you have not implemented web content, those items will not be displayed. All menu items will use the system terminology you have setup for your database. |
