We run as many benefits as we can take on for members of small businesses, so that businesses can rely on us as a partner to run their membership program. They can focus on their core business.

To date, this includes: discounts, first access to event tickets for members, members-only merch (hoodies, shirts, pins), members only events - as the benefits we built-in/are prototyping.

First-access to events, members-only gatherings, and discounts, are the most common member benefits running on Withfriends. Those are built in.

On top of built-in benefits - businesses can take more control and write in benefits. To help them, we have a member-lookup/scanning app in beta for staff (a member side is coming soon). That makes it easy for staff to handle benefits off platform, or simply treat members well.

When you sign up Withfriends, you get a simple, effective membership program - we encourage businesses to be as minimal as possible and just turn it on. We've found that members want to support the small businesses they love. You don't need to overthink it.
