Remote Access For Staff, Members nd Volunteers:

Remote access for staff and volunteers
Provide Member Access

Wild Apricot is designed for organizations that often operate with minimal staff and rely on members and volunteers for many tasks.

Staff, members and volunteers can access your association's website from anywhere with Internet connection using a personal secure login.


This can help your association increase member engagement and involvement: tap into their enthusiasm by letting them help with web page updates, event registrations and other administrative tasks - so that you can get much more done.


Setup access for each person to use the appropriate functionality: full control of your account or limited use of specific functions like website management, event registration, membership records management, donations.

Or setup webpages for private access by your board or member committees.

Select which people should be granted access. You can create sections available to premium members only as an incentive for people to upgrade their memberships.


Create web pages to store industry research, provide best practices, members-only blogs, discussion forums and more. Provide a secure member directory. Fully automate access control so that new members are immediately granted access while lapsed members are locked out.

Secure Member Access

Wild Apricot gives you the capability to make member data accessible online - in members own profiles, in online directories, online discussions and to ensure that data is completely private and secure. Providing a high degree of protection is your responsibility to your members and is required under increasingly ever-more stringent privacy regulations. Here are some of the privacy controls built into Wild Apricot:

  • Each member can only access his or her own record with a secure personal login
  • Administrators control which member database fields are accessible only to internal staff, which can be edited by members and which can be displayed on member directory and member profiles
  • Each member controls the privacy of his own record - opting in or out of member directory, selecting whether to share his email, phone or picture and all other fields.
  • Mass Emails you send out from Wild Apricot automatically include unsubscribe link so that each member can change his communication preferences.

With Wild Apricot, each member has the option to edit their own profile via online self-service functionality. Members can choose to opt out from the member directory or display only certain contact information.
