WildApricot vs MemberClicks for Membership Events

WildApricot includes custom registration forms, online payments, automated reminder emails and attendance tracking from one dashboard. Its help content also shows event calendar pages and built-in online registration as part of the wider system.

That makes it a practical option for smaller membership organisations that want to keep memberships and events together in one relatively simple setup.

MemberClicks includes online registration, event dashboards, attendance tracking and email automation within a wider association management platform. It also positions its broader product around membership management, accounting and reporting for associations and nonprofits.

This makes it more naturally aligned with organisations that want event tools within a more structured administrative system.

Main difference - WildApricot is simpler and more lightweight, while MemberClicks is more structured and admin-led.

WildApricot is often the more accessible option for smaller organisations with simpler event needs. MemberClicks is often the stronger fit where events need to sit within broader association administration and reporting.

Choose WildApricot if you want a simpler all-in-one setup for membership events.

Choose MemberClicks if your organisation needs events inside a broader association management system with more structured back-office workflows.

WildApricot is appealing for simplicity and pricing clarity, but MemberClicks is the stronger technical platform overall because it offers a broader association architecture and stronger publicly documented extensibility.
