How to Manage Member Fields in Spond Club

Updated yesterday

Member fields in Spond Club help clubs collect and organise essential member information. Both default and customisable fields allow for a structured and efficient way to manage member details tailored to your club’s needs.


Default Member Fields


Spond Club includes the following default member fields:

  • Date of Birth

  • Member ID (can be enabled/disabled if the club is not NIF-integrated 🇳🇴)

    • When this setting is enabled, a new field called “Member ID” will automatically be added to each member’s profile in Spond Club.

    • The Member ID will appear in both the membership report and the payment recipient reports.

    • The field will be included in the member export.

  • Guardians

  • Nationality (can be enabled/disabled if the club is not NIF-integrated 🇳🇴)

  • Country (can be enabled/disabled if the club is not NIF-integrated 🇳🇴)

  • Address

  • Gender


View Default Member Fields


To view default member fields:

  1. Navigate to the 'Member Fields' section.

  2. Click on any field to see its details, including who can edit it and whether it's mandatory during registration.


Edit Default Member Fields


When you are in the “Member fields” section, you can click the three dots to the right of the member field you want to edit, and select “Edit” to go directly to the editing page.

If you are already on the overview page for a selected standard member field, you can click the three-dot button in the top right corner and choose “Edit”.

On the editing page for standard member fields, you will be able to:

  • Enable or disable the member field: Member ID, Nationality, and Name (provided the club is not NIF-integrated 🇳🇴). Disabled fields will not be visible or editable.

  • View the name of the member field.

  • Choose whether the standard member field should be mandatory when registering new members via the Spond app.

  • Decide who should be able to edit the selected standard member field:

    • Club and group administrators, guardians, adults and children

    • Club and group administrators, guardians and adults members

    • Club and group administrators


Once the changes are made, click “Save” in the bottom right corner.


Delete Default Member Fields

Default member fields cannot be deleted in Spond Club.


Custom Member Field Types in Spond Club and Groups in the App


Spond Club
In Spond Club, there are four types of custom club member fields that can be stored on a member’s profile. These fields can be configured with visibility and editability settings for club admins, group admins, members, and guardians. A custom club member field can also be displayed in the app on the member’s profile within a group with different permissions.

Custom Member Field Types in Spond Club:

  • Text

  • Number

  • Date

  • Dropdown menu

Note: At present, it is not possible to create a multiple-choice member field as a custom club member field in Spond Club. Multiple-choice fields are only available in forms, and the information collected from these fields is not stored on the member’s profile — it is only recorded within the form itself.

Spond Groups(app)
Within a group in the Spond app, there are three types of custom group member fields. These fields can be set up with visibility and editability options for group admins, members, and guardians. However, custom group member fields are not visible in Spond Club (this is not supported).

Custom Member Field Types in Groups:

  • Text

  • Number

  • Date

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a custom member field in Spond Club?

Go to 'Member Fields', scroll to the 'Custom Member Fields' section, click 'Add Custom Member Field', and follow the instructions to set up the field.

Can I edit the field type after creating a custom member field?

No, once the field type is created, it cannot be changed. Make sure to select the correct type when setting up the field.

Why is my number starting with '00' changing to '0'?

If you’re entering a number that starts with '00', make sure to use a text field instead of a number field to avoid the automatic conversion.
