In short
Ants Creation delivered SAPEN’s membership system on Vero Membership Management in four months. Registration and approval workflows, payments by online gateway or verified bank deposit, automated e-invoices and renewal reminders, five role-based access levels, a full audit trail and digital membership cards now run in one platform, with a self-service portal for members.
The challenge
What did SAPEN need?
The organization required a sophisticated membership management platform to handle complex registration workflows, multiple payment verification methods, and role-based administrative controls. They were dealing with manual membership processes, fragmented payment tracking across different methods, lack of automated communication systems, absence of comprehensive audit trails for compliance, inefficient member lifecycle management, and no centralized platform for multi-role administrative oversight with proper access controls.

Common questions
Membership management for associations: frequently asked questions
What is a membership management system?
A membership management system runs an association’s registrations, approvals, payments, renewals, communications and member records in one place, with a self-service portal for members. SAPEN’s runs on Vero Membership Management. Read more in what a membership management system is.
How do SAPEN’s members pay?
Through online payment gateways, by bank deposit with the proof verified by an administrator, or by manual entry. Each payment generates an e-invoice delivered by email, and finance staff approve or reject deposit proofs inside the system.
Who can do what in the system?
Access has five tiers: members, super admins, membership managers, finance officers and support staff. Permissions are set per module and per branch, and each role has its own dashboard, while an audit trail logs every action in the system.
How long did the project take?
Four months. The system was delivered on Vero Membership Management, Ants Creation’s membership platform, configured to SAPEN’s registration, payment and approval rules rather than built from scratch.
Can Ants Creation do this for our association?
Yes. Vero Membership Management also runs the systems of the Association of Ex-Planters Sri Lanka, CIPM and the Sri Lanka Association of Printers. Tell us how your registrations, payments and renewals work today, and we will recommend the right next step.
