đ˘Â MPS Numbers & Other Adjustments
Several small improvements were made to the portal:
MPS invoice numbers for check-paid dues are now visible on the Paid/Resolved tab of Members with Pending Payments, making it easier to identify which member a payment applies to.
Clearer language appears on the membership card when a member logs in with a different email, prompting them to try another email or contact their League to confirm which email is on the roster.
Life â No expiration now displays on two lines in the roster to shorten the column and improve readability.
Transfer notifications now go to the president, treasurer, membership chair, and roster manager at both the sending and receiving Leagues, in addition to the member and the person initiating the transfer.
đľÂ Pending Check Payments
Offline check payments will now be removed after 90 days if a check is not received. When this happens, the pending payment is removed from the portal and the memberâs expiration date reverts to its prior value (this reset currently requires staff action, so there may be a brief delay). All check payments older than 90 days have already been cleared.
đ Updated Admin Guide & Make-Whole Information
A new version of the Admin Guide is available, including expanded information on shortfall mitigation (âmake-wholeâ) and updates covering league-paid membership, gift membership, auto-renew, troubleshooting tips, clarifications around Life membership, checkout screen language, and other recent portal changes.
đ Auto-Renew & League-Paid Membership
Two major features are now live:
Auto-renew sends members a reminder 30 days before their renewal processes, and members can view or manage upcoming renewals in their profile.
League-paid membership allows Leagues to pay dues on behalf of members directly in the portal, supporting subsidies, locally deposited checks, and payments for members who do not log in themselves.
