Benefits of becoming a member

To start with, you’ll be sent a welcome pack including all of the information surrounding FC Schalke 04 membership. Additionally, membership means that you will receive a priority window when buying tickets, the exclusive member’s magazine „Schalker Kreisel“ will be sent to you and you’ll have the opportunity to attend the club’s Annual General Meeting (AGM). On certain days you will also get special discounts in the S04 shop as well as receiving a card and gift voucher on your birthday.

Membership fees

The amount of the membership fee is decided by the general meeting. Fees are set by age group. In accordance with the club constitution, exceptions can be agreed in individual cases by motion submitted by the honorary board.

The relevant date for assessing the amount of the membership fee is always the date of birth. Members who move into a different fee group during a financial year (1 January – 31 December) will therefore pay the monthly rate of the previous year up until their birthday and the new monthly rate for the relevant age group thereafter.

New members pay a corresponding pro-rata membership fee and one-off joining fee of 5 euros in the year they become a member.

Rules on leaving

A cancellation of your membership is only possible after a minimum term of two years. Your cancellation must be declared in writing and submitted to the club by September 30th. The resignation becomes effective at the end of the financial year – so on December 31st.
