Hello! Could you all send me some structures on how your membership fees work please? Ours is currently a $5 lifetime membership, and we're looking into other options and trying to weigh the pros and cons of yearly memberships!
Thanks, Mallory at La Bikery :)
Broke Spoke does annual memberships (I want to say it's $50) which pays for a year of open-shop stand access (usually $4/hour). We don't really promote it and it's mostly a way for some community members to donate and simplify their transactions with the shop.

The Bike Kitchen/Bike Co-op has an annual membership fee of $15 for students, $20 for community, or free after six hours' volunteering. Benefits include free shop time on Fridays, two hours' free shop time (which would cost $7.50/hr, so basically the cost of membership), plus discounts on workshops and parts. We're also in a weird situation of being technically a student club, ie an organ of the students' representative body at the university, which is itself a registered non-profit. Mostly we have the membership fee because it gets people to sign the indemnity form, which the overarching student body requires we do. It's far from our main source of income.

Another co-operative in BC, Hub City Cycles, has a $5 membership fee for life, then options of hourly, monthly or yearly fees for tool use. You can see their fee structure here:

Most of France's 150 bike cooperatives have a membership fee system (if not all of them). The price scale is 5 to 35 € (my bike co-op is a student run one, we ask for 5 euros). I haven't heard of any workshop where a time based fee system would be applied. We charge for spare parts but even this depends on thhe kind of co-op.

annual membership is $60 or 8 hours of volunteer time. more than 1/2 of our members have joined on the sweat equity option. benefits are free workshops, free open shop stand time & help, and option to buy super cheap used parts (we don't sell them to non-members).
it is a pain to administer, def agree with that.
