Altru Ideas

At my previous institution, we used Patron's Edge, which limited the amount of times a member could check in across their multiple membership cards. If a member at the Dual level brought in a guest, the membership reached the limit for the day, and if the Secondary member came in later that day (adding up to three attendees for the day), PE would charge that third admission. With Altru, there are no limits applied for the day, and each transaction is treated as separate and valid, not taking the constituent record's history into account. Thus, a Dual membership could theoretically bring in an unlimited number of guests via multiple transactions, and the institution wouldn't know any better unless they scrutinized the record.

Please give us the option of being notified if the member is exceeding their quota for the day, either through the PE method of charging beyond the membership allotment for the day, or notifying the user that the membership has already reached its quota. I'm unsure why such an intuitive feature didn't migrate from the PE platform to its successor.
