The top tier.
For life.
We are keeping the first intake small while we build each city. Founding Members hold the top tier on TheDirectory.uk permanently, from one payment, and are here before it is finished.
The top tier, for life
One payment. No renewal date, ever. The tier that normally renews every 28 days, held for as long as your account exists.
Sparks on the house
Applied the moment your place is confirmed. Sparks are rewards for your own profile: boosts, extra gallery space, adverts. They are not money and can never be cashed out.
A founding badge
On your profile beside the Trusted and Verified marks, given only when our team confirms your place.
Early access
New features reach Founding Members before the rest of the site, checked by the site against your account.
How it works
Choose your place
Open the Founding Member offer and see exactly what is included and what it costs, in your own currency.
Reserve it
Make the one payment. Nothing recurs and nothing renews.
We confirm it
Our team confirms your place. Your tier, your badge and your Sparks are applied together, straight away.
Help us grow.
We will help you.
The hard part is already built: the site, the payments, the verification and the team that checks every profile by hand. What it needs now is people, and the means to keep building at the pace of the last month. Our aim is to build one of the best platforms in the UK.
That is why there are only nine Founding Member places, and there will be no more than nine. Nine is a small group on purpose: we would much rather build the next stage with people we know than with a crowd. We want a real relationship with each of our Founding Members, to hear from you directly, and to build this with you.
Your place is a membership tier, and what we can say honestly is this: if you help us grow, we will help you. That is why the top tier is yours for life, why your badge sits on your profile, why new features reach you first, and why the people who were here at the start are the ones we will listen to first.
Founding membership is a membership tier. It is not a share in the company, an investment, or a right to any payment, and nothing about it depends on how the site performs. Sparks are rewards with no monetary value. Our terms apply.
