Purpose
Activate Membership is the final step that moves a creditor from setup or plan selection into active membership access.
How It Should Work
- It should confirm that the creditor has selected a membership plan.
- It should confirm that required billing or payment setup is complete before activation.
- It should make the active membership state clear to the creditor.
- It should preserve the creditor account, company profile, and billing context during activation.
How It Should Not Work
- It should not activate a membership without the required plan and billing information.
- It should not activate the wrong creditor company.
- It should not hide payment or verification failures.
- It should not grant full access when required setup blockers still apply.
Developer Notes
- Membership activation affects access, billing, setup completion, and downstream account processing.
- Treat activation as a state transition that must be auditable and scoped to the current creditor.
