Set up membership plans
Create a repeat-service plan like a monthly wash club, sign customers up, and approve their visits onto the calendar.
A membership plan is a service that repeats, like a monthly detail or a wash club. You build the plan once, sign customers up, and Utopia suggests their visits for you to approve.
Make a plan
- In the sidebar, open Jobs and click Memberships. On your phone, tap More, tap Jobs, then Memberships.
- Tap New plan. The setup has seven steps. Tap Continue to go to the next one.
- Basics: give the plan a name and a short description.
- The work: set the visit length and add the checklist steps for every visit. A plan is its own service, so it has its own checklist.
- Pricing: pick a pricing model and type the price. Add price tiers if the price depends on the vehicle, like SUV or truck.
- Billing: choose how often you bill, for example Monthly.
- Schedule: choose how often you visit, like Every 2 weeks. Add any dates to skip.
- Team and capacity: pick default technicians and the most members you can take.
- Review: add your terms, then tap Publish plan. Or tap Save draft to finish later.
Sign a customer up
- Open the plan and tap Add member.
- Pick the Customer, their vehicle, and the Start date. Change the price or schedule for this one customer if you need to.
- Tap Add member.
Approve visits
Utopia doesn't put visits on the calendar by itself. You approve them first.
- Open the customer's membership and go to the Visits tab.
- Under Proposed, tick the dates you want. Tap Skip this date for any you don't.
- Tap the approve button (it shows the count, like "Approve 3 visits"). Each visit becomes a job on your calendar.
Getting paid
Utopia keeps a record of the plan's billing, but it does not charge the customer's card. Send an invoice or record the payment yourself. See Send an invoice.
Didn't work?
I don't see New plan
Your role can't manage jobs. Ask the business owner.
Add member is missing
The plan is still a draft. Open it, tap Edit, and publish it.
There are no visits to approve
Visits are suggested only while the membership is active, and only a short time ahead. Check back closer to the date.
