You can log in now with your newly created account from the checkout section.
On the dashboard you will see and manage your account details, manage your bookings and receipts, view, information about the Hub you have booked
and access services such as their meeting room calendar (if applicable) and the Hub handbook.
You will also see a range of activity across the members network such as event notifications and relevant news.
Online payments
When you make a booking on Connected Hubs you will have the option to pay via Credit & Debit Cards, Google Pay and Apple Pay for Hubs that accept online payment.
Some Hubs have a pre-approval requirement before you complete your booking. This is to ensure they can facilitate your request.
In this case you will not complete the payment process on the first booking but afterwards once your application is approved by that Hub.
Once you have made your booking you will receive a confirmation email and a receipt for the order.
A full history of your bookings, invoices and receipts is available on your member dashboard.
