ARC-OPS-001: Membership Billing & Access

Collect payment, grant correct membership access fast, and prevent non-paying users from keeping access.

• Stripe (payments/subscriptions)
• Global Control (CRM + tags + automation)
• CourseSprout (member training access)
• Telegram (group access)

• Never place API keys, webhook secrets, or tokens inside SOP pages.
• Store secrets only in approved environment variable stores (.env.personal / Vercel env / platform secret manager).
• If a key is ever exposed in chat/docs, rotate it immediately.

• Monthly: $125
• Quarterly: $333
• Annual: $1200

1. Create/confirm Stripe products and prices match current pricing.
2. Connect Stripe checkout to CRM automation (success + failure events).
3. On successful payment, apply ARC Member tag in CRM and trigger onboarding workflow.
4. Send welcome email with start-here link, Telegram invite, and next call details.
5. Grant CourseSprout access within 15 minutes of payment confirmation.
6. If payment fails/cancels, remove paid access tags and trigger failed-payment follow-up.
7. Reconcile Stripe vs CRM once daily (count active subscribers and mismatches).

• [ ] Stripe plan IDs verified and current
• [ ] Test checkout completed
• [ ] Welcome automation fired
• [ ] Course access granted
• [ ] Telegram invite sent
• [ ] Daily reconciliation completed

If payment succeeds but access is missing for more than 30 minutes, escalate to Ryan immediately and manually grant access first, then fix automation.
