πŸ“˜ How to Create a Free Membership Tier as a Lead Magnet

This article is for creators and explains how to create or enable a free subscription tier on WithMe without affecting existing paid tiers.

Updated today

A free subscription tier is a smart way to welcome new members into your hub without asking them to pay upfront. It lets people explore your Free membership content, understand how your hub works, and get comfortable with your style before committing to a paid membership.
​

On WithMe, free membership tiers work as long-term lead magnets. They help you collect emails, nurture relationships over time, and gradually guide members toward your paid plans or productsβ€” without pressure or friction.


Create a Free Subscription Tier

New setup:

  1. Go to My Hub

  2. Click + Add Product

  3. Select Memberships

  4. Fill in tier details: More details

  5. Click on "Options" Tab and locate "Convert users with a Free Tiers"

  6. Expand the dropdown and toggle the Free tier On

  7. Publish Tier



If you already have tiers:

  1. Go to My Hub β†’ Locate the any membership product

  2. Click on 3 dots (β‹―) to Edit an existing tier

  3. Click on "Options" Tab and locate "Convert users with a Free Tiers"

  4. Expand the dropdown and toggle the Free tier On

  5. Click on "Update Tier"

This won’t affect your paid tiers.


Important Notes About Free Subscription Tiers

  • A free subscription tier cannot exist on its own. You can only enable a free tier while creating a paid one or if you already have at least one paid membership tier.

  • If you don’t plan to actively sell a paid membership yet, you can still:

    • Create a paid tier

    • Unpublish it so it does not appear on your hub

    • Enable the free tier alongside it

  • The free membership tier is not customisable by default. This means:

    • No custom landing page

    • No custom tier name

    • No custom button text

    • No thumbnail upload

  • The free tier works as a system-enabled setting, designed to reduce friction and make joining easy.

  • If you need the free tier to be renamed or customised, contact support via chat or email and our team can help set this up for you.
