Recommended way to set up a family plan.
Assign the same plan to family members you would to any other member but use 'discounts' to modify the plan to a cheaper rate.
go to Plans -> Discounts
Create new Discount
Fill out appropriate parameters
Hit Save
example;
If you want to give a 20% off for family members, set up a family 20% discount. Then apply that to each family member on the regular plan.
This way is better than creating a monthly family plan that you just put under 1 of the family members for the following reasons;
• You need to track members as individuals, its better for data reporting and liability reasons, each person needs to check-in as an individual and ensures each person has a waiver signed
• Easier to modify memberships if one of the family member leaves.
• you can still get data on how many families you have by looking at discount data.
• you won't end up with an unmanageably long list of available plans by creating a family plan for each plan option.
• look at Sub Accounts here which explains how to set them up so you can use the same Credit Card for all family members and also the same email.
