If Your Museum is Still Using Plastic Cards, Don’t Even Read This

Why Traditional Membership Cards Are Holding You Back

Let’s be real: plastic cards are outdated. They get lost, they’re expensive to print, and they don't offer much more than a name and an expiration date. Meanwhile, your team wastes hours managing replacements, printing, and mailing. Time and money are gone.

The Fix? Digital Memberships

Digital memberships are faster to issue, easier to manage, and more engaging for members. They also save money up to 50% by cutting printing, postage, and manual processing. More importantly, they put the member experience where it belongs: on their phone.

And it’s not just about making things easier. According to a 2023 survey by Nonprofit Tech for Good, 63% of donors said digital engagement tools improved their connection with an organization. In other words, going digital isn’t just efficient, it builds stronger, smarter relationships.If you’re still handing out plastic, it might be time to rethink the experience you're offering.

Why Digital Memberships Win

  • Save Time & Money – No more printing, mailing, or replacing cards.

  • Instant Access – Add to Apple or Google Wallet.

  • Smart Engagement – Use email to send personalized updates and perks.

  • Sustainable – No plastic, no waste.

  • Actionable Data – Know who your members are and what they love.

  • Easy Integration – Connects with your CRM and other tools.

How to Switch (Without the Headache)

  • Audit your current program – Spot the friction.

  • Tell members what’s changing – And why it’s better.

  • Go digital – Enable Apple/Google Wallet and email notifications.

  • Track what works – Adjust in real time.

  • Incentivize early adopters – Use perks to drive engagement.

💡 Pro tip: Gamify it. Reward members for using their digital cards.

The Future is Digital and Already Here

Memberships are evolving. Museums that adapt now will lead the way. With tech trends like gamification, AI, and mobile-first experiences redefining engagement, staying analog isn’t just inefficient, it's a missed opportunity.
