STS is nearly ready to launch our memberships for 2023 and we’re excited to release this at some point next week but before we do, we wanted to let everyone know about some of the changes that are coming:
Digital STS Membership Cards
During COVID STS stopped printing physical membership cards but we understand the role cards play in providing a sense of belonging to an organisation as well as other administrative functions they can serve. For our 2023 memberships STS will be introducing Digital Membership Cards. These cards will display information from a member’s profile and can be downloaded to either an Apple or Google Wallet.
JustGo Rewards
In this cost of living crisis we understand that every little helps which is why we’ve teamed up with JustGo Rewards to offer discounts for commonly used high street stores. Click this link to see the stores involved and savings that can be made. This service is available to anyone with a profile on the STS system but can be purchased by STS members for a reduced rate of ONLY £5.00 (instead of £25.00). Purchase of JustGo Rewards is entirely optional, valid for one year from the point of purchase and can be purchased at any point through the 'Rewards' tile in the STS membership system.
Plus All the Usual Benefits
As well as these new additions, member also benefit from all the previous benefits, including some or all of the following (depending on your membership type):
At least 25% off most STS run events and competitions
Political (& Other) Representation
Various insurance cover*

*To understand our insurance cover for #MembershipName in more detail, please see the policy summary and policy wording available at www.scottishtargetshooting.co.uk/individual-insurance
Upgrading Your Membership
We sometimes get asked about upgrading memberships midway through a membership year. STS has now made it much easier to upgrade to higher membership level by simply visiting the STS membership system and selecting the membership you wish to upgrade to and all you do is pay the difference.
Don’t Forget
While we fully appreciate the cost of living is increasing, STS is not immune from increasing costs either and given that we have not increased membership prices for several years, we proposed at the 2022 STS AGM a 10% increase to membership fees for 2023, which was passed. We believe the service we continue to provide, combined with new services, will ensure members continue to feel they receive good value.
Coming Next Week!
Don’t forget, we’ll be launching our memberships for 2023 next week. If you need any help before, during or after this time, don’t forget you can always email admin@scottishtargetshooting.co.uk or contact the STS Office on 0131 467 2489 and someone will be able to help you.
