ClubExpress places second because its pricing suits clubs better than most rivals. It bills only for active members: 42 cents each per month for organizations up to 200 members, 20 cents for each secondary member, falling to 30 cents at 501 to 1,000 members, with a $24 monthly minimum. Expired members and a non-member list up to five times your active count cost nothing, which matters for clubs whose rosters churn. Every account gets the same feature set, including a website, member database, more than 20 modules, unlimited admins, unlimited blast emails and a built-in merchant account. Unlimited telephone and email support is part of the hosting fee. The costs to plan for are a one-time setup fee, starting at $150 for a do-it-yourself build, and extra fees for certain modules. The admin screens and website templates are less polished than WildApricot, so expect a steeper first month for volunteers configuring the site.
