This is Groove’s built-in membership platform to create, host and sell your courses or membership subscriptions.
Deliver full courses with modules, lessons or categories and sub-categories formats. Organise your course structure in whichever format that suits you!
GrooveMember has many features, let me walk you through how you can create a free membership site.
When you create a new membership site, there’s a setup wizard that guides you through 6 steps in creating a membership site. The 6 steps are as follows:
Basic info: Course or Membership site details
Design: Add instructor details and customize your membership area with your logo and a featured image
Builder: The builder is where you add content for your course or membership
Comments: Enable or disable comments for each lesson and set approval of comments
Access level: Configure your membership access levels or tiers
Welcome: Send a default welcome email to your members with their access credentials
Finish: step 7 is really to say your membership site setup is complete
You can set up as many instructors as you like for each of your membership sites. Simply enter in the instructor name, description and upload the instructor image.
Upload your logo: Recommended image size: 170px X 70px
Upload your course featured image: Recommended image size: 350px X 200px
Customize each lesson further with drag and drop elements like buttons, text, images and embed videos from Vimeo, YouTube or use GrooveVideo to host your private content.
Upload pdf files and various media assets in your membership site for members to easily access.
You can create multiple membership tiers, each with different content or courses and at price points with a secure login portal.
Give students and members instant access to your content, drip feed content post after a specified number of days drip content after or alternatively give access to lessons after a certain date.
If you set up a course and would like to provide access to some students for free, you can add them as a member easily.

ActiveCampaign, Aweber, CampaignMonitor, WebForm, Everwebinar, GetResponse, GotoWebinar, Leadlovers, Mailchimp, Mautic, Perkizilla, Pipedrive, ProductDyno, Sendiio, WebinarJams and Zapier. You can also use webhooks or embed forms to embed code from other software. More integrations are being added on a regular basis.
If your email marketing provider is not listed as an integration – copy your opt-in form code from your email marketing provider and embed it on GroovePages using the “code embed” element. I find that ActiveCampaign integrates with GrooveSell and GroovePages.
Watch the training below and see how I create an online school where your students can see all of your available courses and login with the same username and password.
