# How Do Members Purchase Access?

Use [**plans**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/how-do-i-create-a-plan) if you want to require people to do one or more of the following when joining:

* **Pay** (Payments gate)
* [**Answer questions**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/can-i-set-up-questions-and-approval-for-my-members) (Screening Questions gate)
* [**Request approval**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/can-i-set-up-questions-and-approval-for-my-members) (Approval gate)

Once your plans are set up, members can purchase them on the web, in the Mighty iOS app, or in your custom app if you’re a Mighty Pro Host.

If you want to allow access using NFTs or cryptocurrency, learn more about [**Token-Gated Plans**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/how-do-i-create-a-token-gated-plan).

## Choose Where Your Plan Appears

After you create a plan, decide where you want members or visitors to be able to find it.

Go to **Admin > Plans > Plan List**, select your plan, and open the [**Visibility & Sharing**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/how-do-i-choose-where-plans-appear) tab.

A plan becomes **visible** (instead of hidden) when you select one or more of the following:

* [**Network Landing Page**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/marketing-features/how-can-i-customize-my-mighty-networks-landing-page)
* [**Collection**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/setting-up-your-network/how-do-i-create-and-manage-my-collections)
* [**Space/Network About Page**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/setting-up-your-network/how-do-i-find-the-about-page-for-my-space-or-mighty-network)

If none of these options are selected, the plan remains **hidden** and can only be joined through a share link.

## How Members Purchase Plans on the Web

## Network Landing Page

When a visitor or non-member comes to your [**Network Landing Page**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/marketing-features/how-can-i-customize-my-mighty-networks-landing-page), they’ll see all plans that you’ve made visible and can choose which one to purchase or access.

After selecting a plan, members will see a detailed view where they can review the plan’s subscription options and choose the payment frequency that works best for them.

**Create Account:** The new member enters their name, email, and password to create their account.

**Enter Payment Information**: Finally, the member enters their credit card details to complete the purchase.

Note: If you’d like to direct members straight to the Plans section on your landing page, just add /?choose\_a\_plan to the end of your URL, like so:

* **Original Landing Page URL:** [https://community.mightynetworks.com](https://community.mightynetworks.com)
* **Direct to Plans URL**: [https://community.mightynetworks.com/?choose\_a\_plan](https://community.mightynetworks.com/?choose_a_plan)

## Collections

Members—and visitors, if your Network visibility allows—will see any plans you’ve made visible in a Collection and can select **Buy** to continue.

After selecting a plan, a detailed view appears.

If they already have an account, they’ll see an option to enter their payment details and purchase the plan.

## Token-Gated Plans

With [**Token-Gated Plans,**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/how-do-i-create-a-token-gated-plan) members will see the required token or tokens listed directly on the plan page.

## After a Purchase

They will receive a receipt from Stripe with your Network name, the charge amount, and your contact details.

## How Members Purchase Plans on Mobile

## Plans on iOS

On iOS, new plans must be approved by **Apple** before members can purchase them. If you need expedited approval, select the [**Need Help?**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-members/explore-mighty/where-can-i-get-help) button in the bottom right corner of your Host account and ask our team to support the approval process.

Once approved, members can buy plans on iOS using Apple’s in-app payment system, which connects to their App Store account. [**Currency conversion**](https://docs.mightynetworks.com/for-hosts/payments-and-access/can-i-charge-in-multiple-currencies) is handled automatically based on the member’s location.

## Linking to the Web for Plan Purchases

As of **May 2025**, Apple’s policy guidelines allow Hosts in the **United States** to include direct links to the web for digital purchases. Policies vary by country and may change, so check Apple’s guidelines regularly if you serve members globally.

## Important Details About iOS Purchases

* Apple charges a 15% fee on each transaction made through the App Store.
* Purchases made through the App Store **cannot be canceled or refunded by you**.
* Members must manage and update their subscriptions directly in their **App Store account**.

## Plans on Android

When you sell paid plans, the Android app will let members know that purchases must be completed through a mobile browser or desktop.

## Bank Statements

1. For **web purchases**, members will see the **statement descriptor** you’ve set up in your Stripe account on their bank statement.
2. For **iOS purchases**, the charge will appear as **“Apple.com Bill.”**
3. Email confirmations for iOS purchases will display the **name of your Mighty Network**.
