How do I run a Cycling Club Partner club?

A Cycling Club Partner club gives a local cycling club’s members somewhere reliable to stop after a ride. Flub can’t check who’s actually a member, so who you share the join link with, and a look at a club kit or card, do that job instead.

Set it up

Anything the menu marks Off shows Switched off when you open it: press Switch on and set it up (on a phone, + Add more lists them). Changes wait for Save in the bar at the bottom of the page, or at the top right of an offer’s full-screen editor on a phone.

1. Ride coffee and the cake bundle. In What members get, press Flat ongoing benefit. Choose Set price. In What they get, write “a coffee, or a coffee-and-cake bundle, after your ride”. Under When it can be used, press Add limits, choose Weekends under Days it can be used, set morning hours, then Save limits and Save.
2. The bottle refill. Press Club perks in the menu, then Add a perk with a Heading such as “Free tap-water refill, and a reduced-price soft-drink upgrade”. Press Done.
3. The group table. Add another perk, Heading “A table kept for pre-arranged club rides, where we can”. Press Done.
4. Checking membership. Add a third perk, Heading “Show your club kit or membership with your pass”. Press Done, then Save.
5. Share your join link or QR only with the cycling club — through their committee or ride WhatsApp — rather than posting it publicly. Press Start another club from the club switcher if you already run one for passing trade. See How do I add another club?

What members get

A club price on coffee, or coffee and cake, after a weekend ride, a free bottle refill any time, and a table kept back when a ride’s been arranged.

What your staff need to know

Scan the member’s pass for the coffee offer. The refill and the table are Club perks, listed under Club perks — nothing to redeem, but check a club kit or membership the first time.

How you’ll know it’s working

The Flat ongoing benefit card on What members get shows how many members claimed the coffee deal this month.
