Q: 2 memberships on one site
I am starting a non-profit and I have two audiences. One is for virtual assistants, and the other is for administrative professionals. It will be under one umbrella. With this platform, can I have two separate memberships on one, giving them access only to the information for VA and admin professionals? They either want to join the VA community or the Administrative professional community. How would that work if I offered a discount if they signed up for both? Will they have one login for both memberships? The home page has a button to direct them to VA page, and then other will direct them to the Admin professional page.

It covers how you can make pages, posts, and other content available only to specific membership levels – perfect for keeping your VA and Admin Professional communities separate or adding a paywall for premium content.
2. 🎯 Multiple Membership Levels & Access
Yes, you can create two distinct membership levels on the same BD site – one for VAs and another for Admin Professionals. Members can only join one plan at a time, but they can upgrade or downgrade if they want to switch between plans.
3. 💡 Bundling & Offering Discounts
You can offer discounts or bundled memberships for members who want access to both communities:
• Use coupon codes for discounted signups.
• Sell a “bundled membership” as a digital product to provide access to both the VA and Admin Professional content at once.
4. 🚪 Managing Access with One Login
Members who upgrade to access both communities will still have a single login to view all the content for both VA and Admin Professional memberships.
