Registration Database Update:
Login Page New Look
January 11, 2019
Our registration management software, Uplifter Inc., will be launching a new feature related to account types. To accommodate the new feature, the login page will look different than usual; refer to the screenshot below. The change is expected to occur on Monday, January 14, 2019.
When you navigate to the login page you will see a login to the left (Have an Account?) for EXISTING ACCOUNTS and a login creation on the right (First Time Registering?) for NEW ACCOUNTS. Since member clubs already have an existing account you can use the login to the left. Please do not create a new login. If you do, you will not have access to your club’s existing account and your access to the database will be restricted.
When you login to your existing account, you will still have the same accessibility as usual. Please note that there have been a few small changes to the terminology you may see on the site. For example, “individuals” has been updated to “participants”.
More information about account types will be available when the feature is finalized.

Installments & Late Fees
May 16, 2018
Installments
Starting for the 2018-2019 season, clubs can select to pay for the Recreational Club Fee and Birthday Party Insurance with an installment. During the final steps of the checkout, administrators can select the payment option from the invoice summary. There will be the choice to Pay in Full or Pay by Installments.
Refer to this help page for more information: Installments.
Late Fees
The 1.5% Late Fee for unpaid invoices (refer to the Registration Handbook) will now appear as a potentially recurring fee. You will see the Late Fee (1.5%) under the Subscriptions heading on your next registration checkout, starting May 16, 2018. On the last day of each month, the club's account will only be charged for 1.5% of the balance owing if it is more than 30 days outstanding. If the club does not have an outstanding balance, then no late fee will be charged.
Refer to the help page for more information: Late Fees.
Membership Database Update:
Detailed Invoice Report
May 11, 2018
There has been an update to the Invoices – Detailed report. As you know, when a discount has been applied to an invoice, it is summarized in one line. Using the Invoices – Detailed report and applying the “Include Invoice Item Adjustment Details” filter, clubs will now be able to view the details of the discount. This includes the name of the individual, the discount amount and the membership being discounted.
For your reference, a club will receive a discount when the same individual has been registered for multiple memberships. The club will be charged the full amount of the higher membership and credited (discounted) the full cost of the lower membership.
For more information about how to review your invoices, refer to this help page: How to review all invoices.
For more information about exporting reports, refer to this help page: Reports.

Membership Database Update:
New Look to the Registration & Checkout Pages
February 22, 2018
Starting March 6th, the membership database will update the look and feel of the checkout! Users will find the pages sleeker, faster and more intuitive than before. The checkout process will remain generally the same; however, with faster load times and clearer segmentation of steps.
One of the biggest changes you will notice is the interface is much cleaner with summarized registrations rather than a long itemized list. Users will still have the option to show the registration details before completing the final step of the checkout.
For more information and short videos, refer to the Registration and Checkout headings on the What’s Changing help page: https://learn.uplifterinc.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004702748-Uplifter-s-New-Look.
