Membership

The four tiers, explained simply

Free, Paid, Premium, Founding Member, what each one is for and how to choose.

One short answer first

Most members will be on Paid at $17/month (or $99/year), with a 14-day free trial. That's the tier the product is designed around. The other tiers exist for specific reasons.

Free

Free is the welcome layer. You can:

  • Build a profile.
  • Browse your city's groups, events, and members.
  • Receive DMs and connection requests.
  • Read admin-curated devotionals.

Free is intentionally light on the social features. You can be discovered; you can't initiate as freely. Five social actions per week (profile connects + Friend Match combined).

Paid — $17/month · $99/year

Paid unlocks everything Free can't do, plus the content shelf:

  • Send connection requests and DMs.
  • Use Friend Match.
  • Get priority surfacing in "Friends in Your City."
  • Online classes library.
  • Paid Founder content and the full Resource Library.
  • Premium devotionals and the weekly deep devotional.
  • Your week saves beyond the Free member cap (up to 3 upcoming at a time on Free).

The 14-day free trial gives you the full Paid experience with no payment up front.

Refunds: no refunds on monthly. On annual, a 7-day no-questions refund window.

Premium

Premium is scaffolded at launch but doesn't yet have its own differentiation — it's Paid plus a badge plus early access to new features.

Founding Member — $7/month or $499 lifetime

Founding Member is limited to 200 at launch through Sept 30, 2026.

  • $7/month or $499 lifetime
  • Through Sept 30: each friend who joins on your link earns you one free month of Paid (stackable)
  • Permanent Founding Member badge + early access to new features
  • Discounts on retreats (promo codes on partner host sites where available — rolling out)
  • 2 inEden–sponsored, inEden–directed in-person events per month — planned inEden gatherings only, not unlimited (rolling out)
  • Member collaboration — the video-for-your-month perk below applies to you too

If you cancel founding monthly, you can rejoin later at the regular $17/month member rate.

Member collaboration — earn your month back

If you show up to an inEden gathering and want to help us tell the story, you can collaborate with us instead of just paying full price.

Submit two high-quality collaborative review videos of an inEden event, and we'll:

  • Refund you up to $20 toward your ticket, and
  • Comp your membership for that month.

It's how we partner with the members who create alongside us. Send your videos and your ticket receipt to support@ineden.app (rolling out). We review each submission for quality before applying the refund and comp — this is a real collaboration, not an automatic discount.

Founder — $19/month · $9/month founding founder

Founders lead a City Group in Studio. Your first group is included in the Founder subscription.

  • Second group: +$7/month
  • Third group: +$7/month
  • Three or more groups: $29/month flat for unlimited groups

Founding Founder is $9/month for the first 100 Founders during launch.
