membership club
Join-to-enter group
A membership club is an organization that restricts access to its facilities, services, or benefits to people who have formally joined, typically by paying dues or meeting certain criteria.
These range from warehouse retailers like Costco to country clubs, fitness centers, and professional associations.
The membership model creates exclusivity and often provides discounts or perks unavailable to non-members.
The membership club charges an annual fee but the savings on bulk purchases make it worthwhile.
