Overview

Raklet is membership software for organizations that want member records, renewals, communications, events, and a member portal in one service. It suits groups building a branded member experience as well as managing day-to-day administration. Its free entry point is useful for a small contact list, but growth brings contact caps and transaction fees to weigh.

Founded in 2016, Raklet combines a website builder, custom domains, page-based content gating, and subscription billing with mobile apps for iPhone and Android. Members can use digital cards in the app or mobile wallets, giving organizations a phone-based membership option without relying only on a web portal.

Key features

Membership operations: Online joining and renewals, automated renewals, and a member portal cover key stages of membership. This is a practical fit for organizations that want to centralize those interactions rather than manage renewals separately.
Events: Raklet supports online and offline events with tickets, RSVPs, and guest check-in. That range fits groups running both virtual programming and in-person gatherings.
Web and member access: The website builder, custom domain, and page-based content gating can support a branded presence and member-only pages. Organizations needing drip content should look elsewhere; Raklet does not offer it.
Communications and integrations: Monthly email allowances vary by plan, while Raklet advertises more than 4,000 integrations. The allowance is a meaningful constraint for organizations with frequent campaigns, so compare it with expected volume before choosing a tier.
Mobile and payment considerations: Branded iPhone and Android apps and digital cards extend membership access to phones and mobile wallets. Raklet works with Stripe in Stripe-supported countries, so organizations outside those countries cannot rely on that payment route.

Pricing

Raklet is freemium. The Free plan costs 0.00 USD per free, with no strings attached, and includes 100 contacts, one admin seat, and 1,250 free emails per month. It is a sensible starting point for a small group, but the 100-contact cap and single seat leave little room for a larger or multi-admin operation.

Essentials costs 59.00 USD per month with monthly billing and includes 500 contacts, one admin seat, and 5,000 free emails per month. It raises the contact and email ceilings, but retains the single-admin limit. Professional costs 119.00 USD per month with monthly billing and includes 1,000 contacts, two admin seats, and 10,000 free emails per month; it is the more appropriate step for a growing team that needs another administrator.

Premium costs 499.00 USD per month with monthly billing and includes 10,000 contacts, three admin seats, 50,000 free emails per month, and 10 roles. Its larger allowances serve organizations with substantial contact lists and more structured access needs, but the price is a steep jump from Professional. Plan details give a free plan and these monthly prices, while Raklet's pricing note says paid plans start at $49/mo (annual); check the applicable annual offer before committing.

Annual subscriptions receive two months free, and there is no setup or installation fee. Transaction fees range from 1% to 4% plus $0.60 per transaction depending on subscription, so payment volume and plan selection can materially affect total cost. Admin seats range from one on Free and Essentials to three on Premium. Raklet also gives a 500-member limit as a general plan limit, while the plan allowances specify contact caps from 100 on Free to 10,000 on Premium; organizations should confirm which cap applies to their intended use.

Platforms

Raklet offers Android and iOS platforms, including branded mobile apps for members. Digital cards can also be used through mobile wallets. The platform supports Stripe payments only in Stripe-supported countries, an important geographic constraint for organizations collecting dues or event payments.

Who it's for

Raklet is a good fit for associations, clubs, and other membership organizations that need online joining, renewals, member communications, event management, and a portal together. It is especially relevant when branded mobile access and digital cards matter. Smaller groups can begin on Free, while teams needing multiple admin seats or thousands of contacts will need a paid tier. It is less suitable for organizations that require drip content, exceed the applicable member or contact caps, cannot use Stripe, or need to minimize per-transaction charges.

Pros and cons

Pros: The free plan includes 100 contacts and 1,250 monthly emails, giving small organizations a no-cost way to start.
Pros: Online and automated renewals, event tools, a member portal, and communications bring several membership workflows into one service.
Pros: Branded mobile apps, digital cards, and mobile-wallet support offer members more than browser-only access.
Cons: Free and Essentials each allow only one admin seat, which can constrain shared administration.
Cons: Transaction fees of 1% to 4% plus $0.60 per transaction can add up for organizations processing frequent payments.
Cons: Stripe availability is limited to Stripe-supported countries, and drip content is not supported.

Verdict

Raklet is a strong choice for membership organizations that want renewals, events, communications, and branded mobile access under one roof. Its free tier makes a small-scale start possible, while the main reason to look elsewhere is the combination of contact limits, Stripe-country restrictions, and transaction fees that can make expansion costly.
