Limited memberships allow you to offer a standalone experience—such as a course, live event, or lead magnet—inside a single Space, or multiple Spaces, without granting full access to your Network.
By restricting access to Network-level features like private messaging, Global Feed, or Global Members, you can:
Keep your broader community gated, exclusive, or reserved for paying members
Use Spaces as entry points to generate leads and interest without opening up your entire Network
Sell individual programs or experiences on their own, while still keeping your full community experience separate for those who join a higher-tier plan.
Check out the article, “What is a Full vs. Limited Membership?” for more information on what a limited member has access to.
How to Set Up a Limited Membership
First, create the Space(s) you want to provide access to.
Next, go to Admin > Plan List > + icon and create a plan. It is only possible to provide access to limited membership through a plan, not through invites.
In the Plan Details, add the Space(s) you want to include. Do not include Network access since you are creating a limited membership.
Then, decide whether you want to require people to answer screening questions, request approval, and/or pay to join your plan.
After you create your plan, decide where you want it to appear. You can choose up to three options, any of which make the plan visible (instead of hidden):
Network/Space Landing Page
Collection
Space About Page
By making the plan visible and/or creating plan share links, the plan becomes active. So if any of the plan Spaces were previously set to Invite-Only, they will now be Accessible Through Plans instead.
Best for when:
You’re offering a standalone course, event, or lead magnet
You want non-members to see and purchase the plan
Collection Page
Best for when:
You want to promote a plan at the Collection level to be discovered when people are exploring the Network (they must be able to see the Collection exists i.e. the Collection must be set to visible otherwise only those will access to a Space in the Collection can see it exists)
Space About Page
Display the plan on the Space’s About page so members can join from there.
Best for when:
You want to promote a plan to be discovered when people are exploring the Network (they must be able to see the Space exists)
You want to provide more context about the Spaces in the plan for people considering joining the plan
Plan Share Links
When you’re ready for limited members to get access to the space, create the share links for the plan:
Under the Visibility & Sharing tab, click Create a Link
By creating plan share links, the plan becomes active. So if any of the plan Spaces were previously set to Invite-Only, they will now be Accessible Through Plans instead.
Once the share link has been generated, you'll see two or three share link options (depending on whether you have multiple offers).
Plan Landing Page - directs people to the landing page for the plan:
