Additionally, if a Member has paid for their existing Membership through the Platform, any remaining value in their Membership will be refunded before assigning new Membership.

Members can be deleted in the Member Dashboard by selecting the Delete button while editing.
A Member can only be deleted if the following conditions are true:

- The Member must have no paid transactions.
If you just want to stop a Member from signing into your Space, you can alternatively mark them as blocked.
