# How to Add a Member Type | Ugenie | uHubs: Leader Guide

The Hub Settings tab allows you to fully tailor your hub to your brand’s needs with various customisation options. As shown in [How to Change Your Hub's Branding](https://www.ugenie.io/post/how-to-change-your-hub-s-branding), a community leader can adjust their hub's colours and section display names.
An advanced customisation option involves creating Member Types under Hub Settings. Here you can segment your community members into distinct categories to enhance your hub’s organisation and branding even further.
We recommend creating member types that work for your brand. For example, an educational establishment may benefit from creating Teacher, Parent and Student types, whereas businesses with membership tiers may wish to create Gold, Diamond and Platinum types purely based on price.
Further, you can collate members of different Member Types into Groups. For an educational establishment, adding members with types titled Teacher, Parent and Student into Groups titled Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3, is possible.
**Enter:** Ugenie's Member Types
1. Log on as **Administrator**
2. The default landing page is **Dashboard**
3. Find the **Menu** in the top right-hand corner next to your name
4. Click **Hub Settings**
5. **Scroll** downwards
Click **Member Types**
Type the **name** of your chosen Member Type and press **Enter**
Click **Create Member Type**
‘**Member Types Added**’ will appear at the top of your screen as confirmation.
Your new Member Type has officially been created and is available to view.
And there you have it! That’s how to add a member type on uHubs!
