Setting Up Post-Payment Actions

Post-payment actions in Member Splash allow you to automatically update member accounts after a product has been paid for. This is a powerful tool that helps automate membership workflows and improve the user experience by reducing manual updates.

What Are Post-Payment Actions?

A post-payment action is a rule that triggers a change in a member’s account once a specific product has been paid. These actions can:

  • Change a member's account type (e.g., from “Offered Membership” to “Family Membership”)

  • Add or remove account tags (e.g., removing a "Bond Owed" tag after payment is made)

Membership Fee Products and Automatic Status Changes

Products categorized with the Membership Fee type (identified by the slug membership-fee) will trigger certain automatic changes:

  • If the product uses flat-rate pricing, the member’s account and all members will automatically be marked as Paid once the product is paid.

  • If the product uses per-member pricing, individual members on the account will be marked as Paid instead.

These actions happen automatically and do not require separate post-payment rules to be configured.

Example 2: Modifying Account Tags After Payment

You can also create rules to add or remove tags based on payment activity.
