Feature Summary: This feature allows system users to add members without an email address by assigning them a username and password for login access. To enable this option, go to Settings > Organizational Settings > General and turn on Member Email Optional.

Use Case: This setup is useful for clubs that manage members without personal email addresses. Admins can manually create the member profile, assign login credentials, and share the username and temporary password so the member can access their account.

You can only add a member without an email address if the Member Email Optional setting is enabled.

To allow this, go to Settings > Organizational Settings > General and make sure Member Email Optional is turned on.

To create a new member, navigate to Members > Add Member.

You can then add a new member and leave the Email field blank.

Then, from their member profile, click the Login tab. Assign a Username and Password for the member. Be sure to provide both credentials to the member so they can log in to their account. Click Save Changes.

Once saved, the user’s password will no longer be visible. Be sure to share the temporary password with the member right away and encourage them to update it after their first login.
