How do native app subscriptions work for lifestyle memberships?
JoinTheSwing processes paid memberships and verification purchases through native Apple App Store (StoreKit 2) and Google Play billing rather than a web card checkout. Subscriptions renew or cancel directly inside your Apple ID or Google Play settings, while entitlements sync to your account across iOS, Android, and the member website.
Rather than collecting credit card numbers on a web checkout page, JoinTheSwing uses native mobile store billing — Apple App Store (StoreKit 2) on iOS and Google Play Billing on Android — for paid membership tiers and the one-time verification purchase. Your card details stay with Apple or Google, and you can view renewal dates or cancel anytime from your device's standard subscription settings.
For many couples and singles, store-managed billing simplifies statement hygiene because charges are processed through Apple or Google rather than an unfamiliar adult-billing merchant descriptor. Still, plan around your own household setup: if you share an Apple Family group, a joint Google account, or emailed store receipts, app downloads and subscription receipts can be visible to anyone sharing that store profile.
Entitlements are tied to your JoinTheSwing account rather than locked to a single phone. Once a membership or Veriff verification check is completed in the native iOS or Android app — where from the current Veriff check JoinTheSwing never receives raw ID or selfie images, retaining the result, session reference, consent receipt, and non-biometric metadata per /legal/privacy — that status syncs across iOS, Android, and the member website.
New public registration on JoinTheSwing remains closed until final safety and compliance checks are complete, while existing members can continue signing in on synchronized accounts. Curious couples and singles can review published tier details at /membership and join the free waitlist at /join with no payment information required.
