Questions

Can I just sign up and pay?

No. Every membership starts with an application, because member quality is what makes the network useful. Approved applicants receive an invoice; the membership starts when it is paid.

Does membership include tickets?

Membership gives you access to member experiences by RSVP or ballot, and priority access to purchase others. It does not guarantee tickets or hospitality at any specific event; premium inventory belongs to the property and is allocated fairly across members.

How does Corporate membership work?

One organisation, three named people, each with their own profile. The lead contact manages the seats and can nominate colleagues from the member hub. Each new person pays the once-off joining fee.

Can I bring a guest?

Members may receive limited guest privileges for selected experiences. Guests should be prospective members, relevant business contacts or invited stakeholders. Repeated guest attendance leads to a membership conversation.

How do I pay?

By EFT against an invoice. Your membership year starts on the day payment is received.

What happens at renewal?

We send a renewal invoice a month before your membership ends. Paying early never shortens your year: the new year starts from your current end date.

Will my details be shared or sold?

Never sold. Your profile is visible only to other members, your email and phone are hidden unless you choose to show them, and contact details are exchanged only through introductions both sides accept. See our privacy policy.
