Where MemberPlanet stands in 2026.
The membership-software category consolidated in early 2026 — for example, Momentive Software acquired Personify (and Wild Apricot with it) in January 2026. MemberPlanet remained independently owned as of August 2026. Whichever way a platform is heading, Golbi's answer is transparent, quote-free pricing with no added platform percentage on the payments you collect.

What works now, what is planned, and what Golbi does not do.
We only list what's actually live today. If something says Planned, it isn't ready yet. Restricted means no plan includes it — we turn it on for one organization at a time, by hand, after a conversation. We'd rather under-promise and get it right for your members.
