The outcomes this feature feeds into
Before you ask
Are these your tiers or mine?
Yours. Tier names, price points, member benefits — all configured per business. The Shield branding gives you a coherent loyalty story without you naming three things from scratch.
What if I want a fourth tier?
Custom Build Request — typically scoped + shipped in 2–4 weeks. The data model supports arbitrary tier counts; the default UI shows three.
Can I import members from a legacy program?
Yes — CSV import with tier assignment + start date + payment-on-file capture. Stripe handles the billing handoff for existing payment methods you have on file.
What happens to a Shield member if I leave Homericly?
Their subscription transfers to whatever billing platform you pick next — your customer relationships are yours. We hand over the export, the member record, the payment method (where the customer authorizes re-attachment).
Do you charge per active Shield member?
No. Shields run on Stripe; you pay Stripe’s fee on each transaction. We don’t take a per-member cut on top.
Tour the three tiers of customer membership.
Then turn every roof into a twenty-year relationship.
No credit card. No strings. We stand the whole platform up on a subdomain alongside your existing site so you can compare the numbers directly — leads, bookings, ticket size. The Standard guarantee covers cancellation between day 90 and day 180 at full refund.
