A Bottle Club makes the interesting bottles easier to discover: a monthly credit, a cellar price, and first word on the rare stuff.

## 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**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/saving-changes.md) 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. Open **Your club**, then **Settings**, then [**How people join**](https://app.useflub.com/manage/go/how-people-join).
2. Under **Free or paid**, choose [**Paid membership**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/start-charging-membership.md), then press **Switch to paid**.
3. Under **How do members pay?**, choose **Just monthly**. Pick your fee under **What's the monthly fee?**, or press **Something else** to type your own. Choose whether **Do new members get a free trial?**, then press **Save price**.
4. Connect Stripe on the same page, so members can pay you. See [How do I launch my club?](https://help.useflub.com/getting-started/finish-setting-up.md)
5. **The monthly bottle credit.** In [**What members get**](https://app.useflub.com/manage/go/what-members-get), press [**Weekly & monthly offers**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/weekly-monthly-offers.md). Choose **Same every time**, then **Free item**, with "a bottle credit towards our cellar list". Under **When it repeats**, set **Repeat every** to 1 month, choose **Specific weekday**, then **First** and your day. Under **How long they have**, choose **Custom…** and 30 days. Press **Save**.
6. **The cellar price.** Press [**Flat ongoing benefit**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/member-discount.md) in the menu. Choose **Set price**, with "a bottle from our cellar list, to drink in or take away" in **What they get** and your price in **What they pay**. Press **Save**.
7. **Rare bottle first dibs.** Press [**Club perks**](https://help.useflub.com/your-club/club-perks.md) in the menu, then **Add a perk**, with a **Heading** such as "Hear first about small allocations and rare bottles". Press **Done**. Send the actual news from [**Broadcasts → Write something**](https://app.useflub.com/manage/go/new-message) when an allocation lands.
8. **A corkage perk.** Press **Add a perk**, with a **Heading** such as "No corkage on selected member nights". Press **Done**.
9. **Producer night priority.** Press **Add a perk**, with a **Heading** such as "Book winemaker dinners and tastings first", and a **Link** or **Calendar** call to action. Press **Done**, then **Save**.

## What members get

A monthly bottle credit, a permanent member price on cellar bottles, no corkage on selected nights, and first word on rare allocations and producer events. If your club already has members, they stay in, free, with everything they get today. The fee is for people who join from now on.

## What your staff need to know

Scan the member's pass for the bottle credit and cellar price. If payment hasn't gone through, you'll see **Membership paused**. Corkage, first dibs and producer priority are Club perks, listed under **Club perks** when you scan: nothing to redeem, just honour them.

## How you'll know it's working

A paid club's [**Paid members**](https://help.useflub.com/getting-started/paid-members.md) page, under **How it's going**, shows what's coming in. **Members** shows each person's [**Membership status**](https://help.useflub.com/members/membership-status.md).
