Accessing and Sharing Digital Membership Cards
Members and Member's Guests can access Membership Entitlements (Member, Guest and/or Club Cards) card by tapping ‘My Card’ at the Sporting Club of Sydney app homepage.
Digital Membership Cards may be used to access Allianz Stadium, the Sydney Cricket Ground and/or the Sporting Club of Sydney. Members must scan-out of venues or the fitness facility, should they wish to later return (pass outs).
Digital Membership Cards replicate the member’s printed cards and do not double a member’s entitlements. A member’s entitlements remain as per their subscription. For the period of time that a Digital Membership Card is in circulation, the barcode on the printed Guest or Club Card will be rendered inactive
