Date-based price variations let Member Splash add your late fee automatically after a deadline. You can add the fee to the membership product itself, or charge it as its own Late Fee product so it's easy to report on.
💡 Update your dates every year. Expired date ranges don't apply, so the fee won't be charged until you set this year's dates.
Add a late fee to your membership product
Go to Finances > Products and open your membership product.
Scroll to Flat Rate Pricing. Under Price Variations, click Add a Variation.
Under Choose Variation Type, pick Date Range.
Enter the Start Date, End Date, and the late fee Amount as a positive number. (Negative numbers are discounts.)
Add a Description if you'd like. Members see it on the payment page.
Click Update to save.
Members paying between those dates see the regular price plus a late fee line. Stacking more than one variation? See And/Or conditions for Next Rule Relationships.
Charge the late fee as its own product
Go to Finances > Products and click Add New.
Name it Late Fee and add a short description for members.
Under Flat Rate Pricing, set the Price to $0 and click Add a Variation.
Pick Date Range and enter the dates and the late fee Amount.
Want the fee to go up over time? Click Add a Variation again for each step, like $50 from 3/1–3/31, $100 from 4/1–4/30 and $150 from 5/1–9/30. End the last one on the last day of your season.
Under Show / Hide / Require Rules, check Apply Rules, set Rule Action to Require, and add the rules you need (for example, Account Payment Status is Unpaid).
Click Update to save.
Members paying during those dates see the late fee as its own line.
