Digital Membership Cards - ►New!

Overview

We are excited to introduce digital membership cards as a benefit of your SCA membership! Beginning in June 2023, members will have the opportunity to access your membership cards electronically.

Digital membership cards provide a more efficient and convenient way to carry your membership information with you to events. They can be installed directly into your Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, or Wallet Passes app, and once downloaded to your smartphone, don't require internet to access. Your digital card will even update automatically when you renew or change your Society name. 

Some other benefits of the digital membership card will include the option to print a physical copy at any time, as well as the ability to easily share your family's cards between devices.

There is no need to download a separate app to access your digital card; it will be installed on your existing Apple or Android wallet app.

What's Next?

Once the digital cards go live, every current member will receive an email from membership@cuseum.org with the subject line Your New Membership Card - [Your Name] containing your digital membership card! This email will contain an FAQ with basic download instructions.

New members will receive their digital cards within 3-5 days of membership activation.

Can I Still Receive A Blue Membership Card?

Absolutely - we are continuing to print and mail blue membership cards on an opt-in basis. Just select that option from the drop-down menu during the renewal process.

If you need to replace your card for an already-active membership, you can select Request A Membership Card from the left navigation menu on your Dashboard.

Sharing Cards Between Devices (Android to Android/iPhone to iPhone)

If you have Family memberships, the original download link works only once, but the installed card can be shared!

After installing the card on your first device, you just need to enter the card on that phone and use the "Share" option that is located on the back of the card to distribute the pass to other members that are included in your membership.

For iPhone users: 

  • Apple Wallet:
    • Search for a three-dot icon "..." at the top right of your card.
    • Once you tap on the icon, search for an icon that looks like an arrow over a square on the top right of your screen.
    • You will see sharing options like Airdrop, Mail, etc... Use one of those options to share your card (we recommend you use the Mail option).

For Android users:

  • Google Wallet: Simply forward the email you received and ask them to click on "Download Membership Card > Add to Google Wallet" the same way you did (Google does not have a sharing option).
  • Wallet Union (NEW): 
    • Open the app and tap on the digital card you want to share (it will open the digital card in full screen mode if you have multiple cards from the same vendor).
    • Tap the three dots icon at the top right side of the screen.
    • Tap on "SHARE CARD."
    • Note: Android provides multiple sharing options. We recommend via email, or Bluetooth.
    • Reference images can be found here.
  • Wallet Passes (no longer supported):
    • Search for an "i" icon at the bottom of your card.
    • Once you tap on this icon, you will see a button that says "share pass". Tap on this button.
    • You will see sharing options like Mail, SMS, etc... Use one of those options to share your card (we recommend you use the Email option).

 

Sharing Cards Between Devices (Android to iPhone)

If you have Family memberships, the original download link works only once, but the installed card can be shared!

After installing the card on your first device, you just need to enter the card on that phone and use the "Share" option that is located on the back of the card to distribute the pass to other members that are included in your membership.

Sharing from Android phones to iPhones works the same as sharing from Android to Android:

  • Google Wallet: Simply forward the email you received and ask them to click on "Download Membership Card > Add to Google Wallet" the same way you did (Google does not have a sharing option.)
  • Wallet Union (NEW): 
    • Open the app and tap on the digital card you want to share (it will open the digital card in full screen mode if you have multiple cards from the same vendor).

    • Once you tap on this icon, you will see a button that says "share pass". Tap on this button.
    • You will see sharing options like Mail, SMS, etc... Use one of those options to share your card (we recommend you use the Email option).

 

Sharing Cards Between Devices (iPhone to Android)

If you have Family memberships, the original download link works only once, but the installed card can be shared!

After installing the card on your first device, you just need to enter the card on that phone and use the "Share" option that is located on the back of the card to distribute the pass to other members that are included in your membership.

To share from an iPhone to a phone with an Android operating system:

  • Open the digital card on your iPhone (the installed card).
  • Go to the back of the card (to access the back of the card, tap on the button that looks like three dots inside of a circle).​​
  • Then, Tap on the sharing button (it looks like a square with an arrow pointing up).​​
  • Once you tap this button, you will see the sharing options. We strongly suggest you tap on "Email", so you can share the digital card to the Android phone via email.

 

Do I Need To Install A Separate App?

You do not need to download a separate app to access your digital card; it will be installed on your existing Apple or Android wallet app.

 

Printing Your Digital Card

The ease and accuracy of the digital membership card, in the format of your choice: your printed card will have the same basic functionality of the digital card, and is a great option for those members with accessibility limitations, those who prefer to go smartphone-free, and those who just like having options! 

Any member with an active digital membership card will have the option to print your own card from home, and it will be as easy as 1-2-3:

  • First, you'll access your digital card by clicking the Download My Card link within the delivery email.
  • Your personalized membership card will pop up on the screen, where there will be an option to Print A Physical Copy.
