Cannabis clubs are a work around for selling cannabis being prohibited through international treaties. E.g. the laws around free transfer of goods in the EU isn't made with exceptions for illegal substances in mind. So the EU would've to reclassify cannabis, which is unlikely to pass for a long time.

Someone has to be part of a cannabis club, which has a membership fee and gives out a maximum of 50g per month. This means it's not directly buying cannabis, which might mean people who consume less have to pay relatively more per amount.
