  4. At a stock level to the membership item (Inventory Tab). Set it nice and high!
  5. Make the item available on your webstore (Options Tab);

Locating Membership on your Web Store

There are two approaches to membership. The first its that you create a department or category and insert the membership items into that location.

The second option is that you hide membership item so that they can only be added to the shoppers basket on the checkout page. In this scenario don’t place the membership items in a department or category as you don’t want customers to be able to put them into their basket while browsing your store.
