The Founding 50
Get the highest level of local visibility at the earliest rate - with a Pro+ annual subscription. The earliest founders are rewarded with the greatest savings and service. Once all spots are claimed, standard Pro+ pricing returns.
Founder annual pricing is paid in full at checkout and qualifies you for a numbered Founding 50 position only after payment is confirmed. If you are currently using complimentary six-month Pro+ access, that access continues through its original end date; your paid annual term begins afterward, and the $149/month plan will not start.
Founding 50 membership includes Featured Pro+ directory profile access and permanent numbered position on the Founding 50 roster board.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Sign-Up FAQs
Clear answers about plan access, teams and firms, Founding 50, and optional referrals.
Plans & dashboard access
9 questionsWhy does pricing start with city confirmation?
We tailor your experience to your local market. Confirming your city first ensures you see the right Founding 50 availability, plan details, and local opportunities.
What is the difference between Free and Featured Pro?
Free establishes your public City Hub profile and provides limited dashboard access. Featured Pro opens full dashboard features, including live analytics, the LeadFlow and profile inquiry inbox, connected-pro conversations, and expanded publishing and directory visibility. The comparison table above lists more details.
What does Featured Pro+ add?
Featured Pro+ includes the Featured Pro capabilities, plus a four-page Showcase website and custom-domain options, higher directory placement than Featured Pro, and the option to earn higher referral commissions. See the comparison table for feature-by-feature details.
What happens if I start Pro or Pro+ but do not complete payment?
You can return and complete checkout later. Your paid plan does not activate until payment succeeds.
When do paid users get dashboard access?
Paid dashboard access begins after successful payment. Verification can continue in the background.
Can I upgrade from Pro to Pro+ later?
Yes. You can upgrade later. Your existing profile content and settings carry over; the checkout flow will show the applicable price before you confirm.
Are leads really free?
Featured Pro and Featured Pro+ do not charge a per-lead fee. Lead availability depends on people finding and contacting you; FinTechful does not guarantee a number of leads.
Do I need a custom domain for Pro+?
No. A custom domain is optional. You can use the Showcase website without bringing a domain, or connect your own domain when you are ready.
Are there extra FinTechful charges for the Pro+ Showcase website?
The Showcase website is included with Pro+. A domain registrar may charge separately if you purchase or renew a custom domain through them.
Teams & firms
4 questionsWhat is the difference between a Team profile and a Firm profile?
A Team profile gives a collaborative group a shared local story and roster. A Firm profile represents the broader organization and can connect visitors with its people; professionals and teams can still have their own distinct profiles.
Does the person creating a Firm page need Pro+?
The person starting the Firm page first needs an active Featured Pro+ profile in their individual My Hub. They can then create the Firm Workspace and connect the roster; invited colleagues can join with their own accounts and do not all need Pro+.
Do all professionals in a Firm need Pro+?
No. Pro+ is required only for the person who creates the Firm page. After that, the shared Firm presence and each colleague’s individual profile are distinct, and invited members can choose the individual plan that fits them.
Where can I learn more about team and firm options?
Visit the For Teams and For Firms pages for an overview of shared profiles, rosters, and ways individual professionals can participate.
Founding 50
3 questionsWhat is the Founding 50 opportunity?
Founding 50 is a limited early-member opportunity for each City Hub. It offers numbered Founder positions, with 20 Charter Founder spots within the 50. Availability and current terms are shown on the Founding 50 page for your city.
Can I still choose Founding 50 annual pricing?
Founding 50 annual options are available while eligible positions remain. Charter Founder pricing is $500 per year ($41.67 per month equivalent), with the annual rate grandfathered on renewal under the program terms. Check your city’s page for live availability and details.
Does choosing a Founding 50 position mean I have to refer people?
No. Founding 50 membership does not require referrals or commission participation. Referral tools and commissions remain optional.
Commissions & referrals
5 questionsDo I have to refer anyone or participate in commissions?
No. Referrals and commissions are entirely optional. You can use FinTechful without sharing referral links, sending referrals, using the Funding Portal, or earning commissions. There are no referral quotas or referral requirements for your membership.
How do I opt out, and are there rules for referral activity?
You decide whether to participate: simply don’t share referral links or initiate referrals. No separate opt-out is needed to avoid referral activity. If you do choose to participate, you are responsible for following the laws and professional rules that apply to you; requirements can vary by state and industry. Consider checking with your compliance or legal adviser if you are unsure.
If I refer another business to join FinTechful, what commissions may be available?
Referral commissions are optional. If you choose to participate and maintain an eligible Featured Pro or Pro+ subscription, qualifying activity may earn commissions in these ways:
- Directory subscription referrals: 15% (Pro) or 25% (Pro+) recurring commission on an eligible paid subscription.
- Funding events: a share of the gross commission paid by the funding provider. The applicable rate depends on your tier and the eligible activity.
- Premium website subscriptions: recurring commissions may be available for eligible subscriptions.
- Level-2 overrides: 5% (Pro) or 10% (Pro+) on qualifying gross commissions from eligible activity attributed through your referral network.
When do higher commission rates take effect?
The rate associated with your active eligible tier applies to qualifying activity from the time that tier is active. Commission participation is optional, and earnings are not guaranteed.
Are commissions and overrides taxable?
Tax treatment and reporting depend on your circumstances and applicable tax rules. FinTechful cannot provide personal tax advice; consult a qualified tax professional about your obligations.
