If needed, you can upload a list of memberships from an Excel file.
Upload from Excel
Before uploading memberships make sure that the following is entered in Altegio:
- Locations
- Membership types
- Clients (if you’re importing memberships assigned to clients)
To upload memberships from Excel go to the chain interface, open Loyalty > Memberships section and click the Upload from Excel button.
Please note that:
- You can’t import memberships with a Separated balance;
- If there’s more than one location then they need to be named differently.
- Inventory transactions will not be created together with the import.
- If an Excel file has at least one mistake then the whole file is considered invalid - valid lines will not be imported, and the file will not be uploaded at all. There must be no mistakes in the file for the import to be successful.
- You cannot upload frozen memberships.
- If there’s no storage for the sale of products then the file will not be uploaded.
Mandatory information about the membership
The Excel file must have the following information about memberships:
- Location name. Must be the same as in Altegio.
- Membership type. The name of the membership type must be the same as the membership type name in Altegio.
- Remainder of sessions on membership. Must be a number or equal to zero. The remainder of the sessions cannot exceed the balance of the membership.
If the subscription type contains the setting “Activate subscription: on sale”, then it is not necessary to specify the subscription status.
The status is obligatory provided that the activation of the subscription is “From the first visit”.
Optional information about the membership:

- If present, it must be indicated in the following format: country code + phone number without spaces and special symbols, i.e. 12125678904
- If present, then the client with this phone number must exist in the client database. If during an import this client wasn’t found in the Client Database then this file will not be imported.
- Membership number
