Overview
Member app links are built-in URLs on your app domain that provide essential navigation for your members and guests. These routes are reserved by the platform and cannot be used as custom page slugs in the Page Builder. Understanding these links allows you to effectively guide your audience through your app.
Quick Reference Table
Link | Who it's for | Purpose |
| Guests and members | Main offers page — browse plans, subscribe, or manage billing |
| Guests | Create a free account (no payment, no access levels) |
| Guests | Sign in (opens auth modal on the current site) |
| Guests and members | Checkout link for a specific offer (shareable) |
| Guests and members | Gift a subscription or one-time offer (when gifting is enabled) |
| — | Redirects to |
| Members | Account settings, billing, referrals, preferences |

| Everyone | Default landing path after login/checkout (usually your Home page) |
Authentication Links
/login
The canonical sign-in URL for bookmarks, email links, and server auth guards.
Guest: Redirects to
/?auth=login(preservingreturnUrl,error, and OAuth params). The sign-in modal opens without leaving the page.Already signed in: Redirects straight to
returnUrl(or the tenant start page).Query params:
returnUrl— where to send the member after successful login.
Members can also sign in from the header, locked-content prompts, and the auth modal without visiting /login directly.
/join
This link allows free account registration — email and password, optional name. No payment and no access levels are granted.
Use when: You want people to explore public content, save favorites, or join a mailing list before buying.
Query params:
returnUrl— redirect after signup (default/home)ref— referral code for the Referral System
/forgot-password
A standalone password reset page for email links and direct navigation. Uses the same form content as the auth modal's forgot-password view.
/magic-link
A one-time sign-in from email (magic link or password reset). Not meant for manual linking — generated by the system in transactional emails.
/profile
The member account hub. Common paths include:
Path | Purpose |
| General account settings |
| Subscriptions, invoices, Manage Subscription |
Upgrade modals and billing CTAs link here when a member already has a subscription.
Purchase Links
/upgrade
The primary member-facing offers page on your app.
Shows subscription and one-time offers grouped by offer group.
Works for guests (purchase + account creation) and logged-in members (upgrade or manage).
Unlisted offers are hidden from this page (use checkout links for link-only pricing).
External upgrade URL: If configured, visitors to
/upgradeare redirected to your external sales page instead.
Query params:
Param | Purpose |
| After checkout, send the member back to this path |
| Comma-separated access level IDs — show only offers that grant those levels |
Example: /upgrade?returnUrl=/recipe/summer-salad&accessLevels=uuid1,uuid2
/pricing
On your tenant domain: Automatically redirects to
/upgrade.On memberkitchens.com: Marketing pricing page — not your member offers page.
Do not share memberkitchens.com/pricing with your members; share your tenant domain link instead.
/c/[slug]
A shareable checkout entry point. Each offer can have one or more checkout links; the first is auto-created when you add an offer.
Listed and unlisted offers both work via checkout links.
Guests are prompted for email before Stripe Checkout.
Query params:
returnUrl,ref(referral code), optional promo code when configured on the link.
Manage links in App Station > Monetization > Offers > Checkout Links.
/gift and /gift/success
The gift purchase flow allows users to buy an offer for someone else. Only available when gifting is enabled for your app. Same offer catalog rules apply as /upgrade.
Member Destinations
These are built-in member routes:
Path | Purpose |
| Default post-login and post-checkout destination |
| Favorites, lists, completed items, member-created recipes |
| In-app notification center |
| Mobile "About" screen (footer links and copyright) |
| Contact form (when enabled) |
| Community forum (when enabled) |
Custom pages you create in the Page Builder use your chosen slugs and are not listed here.
Content URLs
Each content type has a fixed URL pattern:
Content | Pattern | Example |
Recipe |
|
|
Meal plan |
|
|
Resource |
|
|
Blog post |
|
|
Course |
|
|
Locked content teasers and upgrade modals pass returnUrl pointing at these paths so members return after signing in or purchasing.
Query Parameters Used Across Links
Param | Used on | Purpose |
|
| Return path after auth or purchase |
|
| Filter offers to those granting specific access levels |
|
| Referral code attribution |
|
| Client-side bootstrap to open sign-in modal |
Reserved Slugs
You cannot create a custom page with any of these slugs — they conflict with platform routes:
account, app-install, c, community, contact, forum, gift, join, leaderboard, login, meal-plan, my-favorites, my-stuff, notifications, points, post, profile, recipe, resource, signup, upgrade, and others reserved for marketing or admin paths on shared hostnames.
The Page Builder shows an error if you try to use a reserved slug. Note that /signup is reserved for the Member Kitchens creator signup flow, not member registration. Direct members to /join for free accounts.
