Views: 3,288

A summary of the basic member group functions are as follows:

  • You can create up to 10 member groups. A given member can only be in one group.
  • You can apply different discount settings, by percentage of price, to each member group. These settings can be applied by item, by category, or applied to all the products on your store.
  • You can set page access restrictions by item or by item category for each member group.
  • You can disable purchase of certain items or item categories by non-members.
  • You can send emails to specific member groups.
  • You can restrict access to custom pages by member group.
  • You can prevent non-members from viewing your shop.

Here is a full list of places in the Shop Manager where you can configure settings related to member groups:
