# Create a Staff Membership | Walla Support Center
### **Step 1: Add a new plan for your staff**
In our example we are creating a $0 plan for our staff. Follow these steps to create a new plan that will allow your staff to book classes:
1. From the main navigation menu select **Plan Management**
2. Choose **Add New Plan**
3. Select **Class Plans**
4. Specify the **plan details** like which classes are covered and when the membership starts.
5. **Consider your $0 payroll setting,** and either enter a price for the plan if you are going to discount it 100% at checkout or enter $0
6. Decide if this plan should be **available online and who can buy it.** Since it's just for staff, you might not want regular members to access it
7. Make sure it **covers all the classes** your studio offers
8. **Save**
### **Step 2: Sell the plan to your staff**
If you have not already, you will need to create a client profile for your staff member before selling the plan. Recurring plans, even if they are priced at $0, require a credit card to be stored when purchasing.
1. Select **Buy**
2. Bring up your **staff member’s client profile** in checkout
3. **Discount the plan** if you’d like (Remember, plans discounted 100% at checkout are always counted toward bonus headcount on payroll)
4. **Add a card** to store on file (Recurring plans require a credit card)
5. **Save** the sale to complete
### **Payroll Considerations and $0 Plans**
Before you go ahead and create a plan that's priced at $0, it's important to think about how it might affect your Payroll settings. Remember, plans or drop-ins sold with 100% discount added at checkout are not considered $0 plans and will always count towards headcount. By considering these points, you can ensure that your payroll calculations are accurate and avoid any unexpected issues down the line.
- Check your Payroll settings regarding plans and drop-ins that are priced at $0. This setting determines whether $0 plans are counted towards your payroll headcount calculations or not.
- If your Payroll setting states that plans priced at $0 do count towards payroll, then creating a $0 plan will count towards your bonus headcount.
- However, if your setting indicates that plans priced at $0 don't count towards payroll, then creating a $0 plan won't affect your bonus payroll count.
- If you want the $0 plan to count towards your bonus payroll count but not other $0 plans, you have an option. You can set a price for the plan and then apply a 100% discount at checkout. This way, the plan will count towards your bonus payroll count while still being available at no cost to your staff.
