The Membership Menu looks different; what’s happening?

Cyclist.ie is currently implementing a National Membership System; this is intended for all Cyclist.ie Members. The current version of the website represents Phase 2 of this project; there may be later Phases.

What if I’m already Signed-Up?

If you are already Signed-Up on cyclist.ie or with your Local Group, you should cancel that subscription before or soon after Signing-Up. Cyclist.ie members can cancel their existing subscription here. Dublin Cycling Campaign Members should contact DCC. Any other paying Local Group Members should contact their Local Group.

What’s different about Sign-Up?

The main difference is that Sign-Up / Register asks for your Local Group (pull-down selection); this will enable Cyclist.ie to support Local Group activity.

The system also asks for a Username / Password combination, so that you can later Sign-In and manage your Account. There is a Password recovery option.

There is no longer any Group Membership; instead each Member should Register / Sign-Up individually here and indicate their Local Group affiliation, if any.

What about Payment Systems?

The system supports Stripe and PayPal. The PayPal interface supported is for PayPal Express; this requires Users to have an existing PayPal account. Stripe does not support an account per se. You can also view your transaction history.

What are the different Phases about?

Phase 1 was the introduction of the basic Membership System.

Phase 2 added PayPal and integration with Mailchimp, which is intended to be used for Emails to Local Groups and various other interest groups.

Future phases will be more to do with the back-end i.e. Mailchimp, Management and Admin. functions.
