📋 Overview

The Learn to Skate (LTS) Membership feature streamlines the registration process by integrating LTS USA membership verification into Dash. This feature allows customers to easily verify their membership when registering for a Learn to Skate program through the member app. In some cases, a membership may need to be deleted, such as when it was incorrectly linked or if the parent accidentally verified the wrong child’s profile. This article provides instructions on both membership verification and how to delete or unlink a membership if necessary.


Benefits

  • Time-saving: The verification process ensures quicker registration for Learn to Skate programs.

  • Ease of use: Simple and smooth customer experience during registration.

  • Improved Customer Satisfaction: Ensures that customers can easily verify their membership and proceed with registration without issues.

👤 How It Works on the Member App

Click the arrow to learn more

  1. Registration: Customers can search and register for a Learn to Skate program as they normally would. At checkout, they are prompted to verify their LTS USA membership.

  2. Verification Methods:

    • Member ID: Enter the membership ID if known.

    • Alternate Verification: If the ID is not available, the system will attempt to verify using phone number and email. If those aren’t available, it will prompt the customer to visit the LTS USA website to register.

  3. When you know your member ID number, simply enter the number in and you will see a screen like this that displays the membership details for the customer. If it looks correct, click the "Send Email" button. If not, click the "Go Back" button and instead use the "alternate verification method".

  4. When selecting the "alternate verification method" the system looks at the customers first and last name and gender for any possible matches. Select which one is the correct account, and press "Continue".

  5. If the customer does not have a phone number on their profile with Learn to Skate, an email address will be used to confirm the identity.

  6. Once you have selected the proper customer, you will receive a text or an email asking you to click a link to confirm your account. Emails can take a few minutes to appear so be patient. Here is an email example:

  7. After you verify the link, the modal says "hit continue" and as long as your membership is not expired, it will close. The verification button and section goes away and you can proceed with your checkout options.

  8. Once the process has begun to validate the membership, on the Membership section within the Member App page, you will see the tile with the skaters details and a link to complete the verification and another link to access the Learn to Skate USA website.

  9. Once the membership has been validated and as long as it still active, the tile within the Member App will appear like this with:

🛠️ How It Works on Admin Side

🔔 Important Note:
Currently, the initial integration does not include membership verification on the Admin side. When registering for a Learn to Skate class in person, staff will not be prompted to enter a membership number. Instead, you can direct the customer to the Member App to complete their registration, or use the Customer "Online Experience" to guide them through the registration process and subsequent membership verification.

Below is a Video demo of how you can use the Online Experience to help register a customer in person.

Once a customer has started the verification process online, the LTS stages will appear on the Admin side.

  • Pending Status: If the customer hasn’t verified their membership, it will appear as "Pending."

  • Expired Membership: Customers with expired memberships will have an "Expired" status visible in the Admin panel.

  • Active Membership: If the customer has a valid and active membership, it will show as "Active" on the Admin side.

    • If the membership is still in the "Pending" status, you can delete it by navigating to the customer’s profile and clicking the "Delete" button.

    • Confirm the deletion when prompted.

  2. Active/Expired Status:

    • If the membership is "Active" or "Expired," you must first unlink the membership from Dash. Click the "Delete" button in the customer profile, and confirm the deletion.

    • Once deleted, the customer will need to log in to their LTS account, go to "My Profile".
