How to Record Member Visits

Member Visits let you record when a member comes in, attends an activity, or checks in with your organization, so you can track engagement and participation.

Where Member Visits live

Go to Membership > Member Visits. This is the full list of recorded visits, with its own filters and export. You need at least one member on file before you can add a visit.
