Led by the Membership Committee, the decision to offer a paid membership option will both enable an effective 2022 Board of Directors election as well as help support upcoming association initiatives. We are launching paid membership at many different levels and a “choose what you pay” model in order to allow as many people as possible to participate.

To date, the Magento Association has been solely funded by paid sponsorships from our partners. Partners have made it possible for our community to grow from its early stages and we are ready to open up a paid membership model in order to more rapidly scale our operations and programs.

In 2022, the membership dues will go toward supporting our member programs like webinars and MA Connect, and in 2023 we will launch a more robust set of offerings, led by the Membership Committee.

We will collect paid memberships via the website Patreon and look to integrate membership into our current website in 2023. 

Members who join at the Building Block level or higher during our initial launch will be recognized in a post or page on the Magento Association website.
