Overview

Raklet is a membership management platform for organizations that need to handle member administration, renewals, communications and events in one service. It is strongest for groups that want a branded member experience alongside those operations; organizations with larger contact lists or tight transaction-fee constraints should compare its plan caps and payment costs carefully.

Page-based content gating, subscription billing, a member portal and website builder cover the basic membership lifecycle, while branded mobile apps and digital cards extend that experience to phones and mobile wallets. Raklet was founded in 2016.

Key features

Membership administration: Members can join and renew online, and automated renewals reduce the need to manage each renewal manually. A member portal and communications tools keep core member interactions within the platform.
Events: Online and offline events can include tickets, RSVPs and guest check-in, a useful combination for organizations running both virtual and in-person gatherings.
Web and mobile presence: A website builder, custom domains and page-based content gating let organizations present membership content under their own domain. Branded apps for iPhone and Android support digital membership cards, which members can also use through mobile wallets.
Integrations and data: Raklet advertises more than 4,000 integrations. It says it applies industry-standard security practices and strict data-protection policies, and does not share customer information.
Payments and support: Raklet works with Stripe in countries where Stripe is supported. Free email and chat support is available to all clients. Transaction fees vary by subscription from 1% to 4% plus $0.60 per transaction, so payment volume and plan choice both matter.

Pricing

Raklet has a free tier and paid monthly plans. The plan prices below are monthly; annual subscriptions receive two months free. There is no setup or installation fee, but payment processing adds a plan-dependent transaction fee.

Plan	Price	Included limits
Free	0.00 USD per free	100 contacts, 1 admin seat, 1,250 free emails per month
Essentials	59.00 USD per month	500 contacts, 1 admin seat, 5,000 free emails per month
Professional	119.00 USD per month	1,000 contacts, 2 admin seats, 10,000 free emails per month
Premium	499.00 USD per month	10,000 contacts, 3 admin seats, 50,000 free emails per month, 10 roles

Free is a sensible way to start for a small group with no more than 100 contacts, but its single admin seat and 1,250 monthly emails limit how comfortably a team can share the work. Essentials raises the contact cap to 500 and the email allowance to 5,000, but still has one admin seat. Professional doubles the contacts to 1,000 and allows a second admin; it is the more practical step up for a small team that needs shared administration. Premium is a substantial jump in price, but its 10,000-contact cap, three seats and 50,000 monthly emails target larger operations; its 10 roles add room to differentiate responsibilities.

Transaction charges of 1% to 4% plus $0.60 per transaction can be significant for organizations collecting frequent or high-value payments. Check the fee for the subscription you choose, and confirm Stripe support in your country before relying on Raklet for payment collection. Annual subscriptions save two months compared with paying monthly, while the free plan is described as having no strings attached.

Platforms

Raklet is available on Android and iOS. Its branded mobile apps are aimed at members as well as the organization, with digital cards accessible in the app or through mobile wallets.

Who it's for

Raklet suits associations, clubs and other membership organizations that want online joining and renewal, recurring subscription billing, event tools and a member-facing portal together. Its free plan can suit a small organization testing a 100-contact setup; the paid tiers better fit groups that have outgrown that ceiling or need more email capacity. It is a weaker fit for teams that need multiple administrators on an entry plan, organizations beyond Premium's 10,000-contact limit, or groups unable to use Stripe in their country.

Pros and cons

Pros: The member portal, online joining and renewals, automated renewals and event hosting cover the main work of running a membership program in one platform.
Pros: Branded mobile apps, mobile-wallet cards and custom domains support a more organization-specific member experience.
Pros: A free option starts at 100 contacts, and all clients can use email and chat support.
Cons: The Free and Essentials plans allow only one admin seat, which restricts shared administration until Professional.
Cons: Contact and email allowances are capped at every listed tier, with Premium limited to 10,000 contacts and 50,000 monthly emails.
Cons: Transaction fees add 1% to 4% plus $0.60 per transaction, and payment availability depends on Stripe support in the organization's country.

CiviCRM is a freemium web option; its Starter plan is 15.00 USD per month per instance and includes unlimited users, up to 5,000 contacts, most CiviCRM components and CiviMail. Choose it when a lower-cost, higher contact allowance and unlimited users matter more than Raklet's branded mobile and event experience.
MembershipWorks is a freemium web service with no free trial; its free plan supports 50 accounts, while 300 accounts cost 35.00 USD per month and 600 cost 59.0. Consider it when a web-based account-count plan is a closer fit, bearing in mind Raklet's free tier allows 100 contacts.
memberplanet is a freemium service for web, iOS and Android. Its Basic plan includes unlimited members and admins, while Essentials includes 1,000 campaign emails and unlimited survey responses. Choose it if unlimited admins on the Basic plan or survey capacity is the priority.

ChamberMaster is a paid web option.

membermojo is a freemium web service with a free trial; its 100-member plan costs 50.00 GBP per year, with prices inclusive of VAT. It is worth comparing when a small, annual-fee web plan is the main requirement.

Verdict

Raklet is a sound choice for membership organizations that want renewals, communications, events and a branded member presence in one place, with a free entry point for up to 100 contacts. Choose another platform if your organization needs more entry-level admin seats, exceeds the paid contact caps, or cannot use Stripe; transaction fees deserve particular scrutiny before committing.
