MONTRÉAL, QC / ACCESS Newswire / April 7, 2026 / Valsoft Corporation Inc. ("Valsoft"), a Canadian company specializing in the acquisition and development of vertical market software businesses, is pleased to announce the acquisition of MemberLeap, a Michigan-based provider of cloud-based association management software serving nonprofits, trade associations, and membership-based organizations across North America. The acquisition was completed through LSG Canada Inc., doing business as Lighthouse Software Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valsoft.
Founded in 2000, MemberLeap provides a proprietary, fully integrated SaaS platform that enables membership organizations to manage their operations end-to-end, from member databases and dues billing to event management, email marketing, website hosting, e-commerce, and branded mobile applications. The platform serves nearly 600 active customers, ranging from small local chapters to large national associations.
"MemberLeap has built an exceptional product that has become a mission-critical operating system for hundreds of associations," said Shaan Patel, Portfolio Manager at Lighthouse Software Group. "Chris and his team have cultivated deep customer relationships and a platform that organizations genuinely rely on every day. We look forward to investing in the product, supporting the team, and expanding MemberLeap's reach under the Lighthouse umbrella."
"Building MemberLeap over the past 25 years and watching it grow into the platform it is today has been the highlight of my career," said Chris Vieth, Founder and CEO of MemberLeap. "Valsoft and Lighthouse share our commitment to long-term thinking and putting customers first. I am confident that MemberLeap is in the right hands to continue serving the association community for decades to come."
With this acquisition, Lighthouse Software Group strengthens its presence in the membership and community management vertical software space. MemberLeap will continue to operate autonomously, with its leadership team and employees remaining in place.
