Membership types and costs:
There are two levels of Membership in our Trade Program; Standard Trade Membership and Premium Trade Membership. Our Standard Trade Membership is free of charge to Verified Trade Members and is the entry point to our Trade Program. Our Premium Trade Membership is $995 per year, or free, once you spend $20,000 or more, on Chairish.
Membership Benefits Overview:
Premium Trade Qualifications:
A Trade Member (or company*) is eligible for a Premium Membership in one of two different ways:
- Pay an annual membership fee of $995
- Trade Member spends $20,000 or more, on Chairish
- All "spend" on your current Chairish account contributes to your achievement, even if the "spend" was prior to joining the Chairish Trade Program.
*Chairish recognizes "companies" as groups of individuals with the same business email domain.
Company spending is pooled, and once your cumulative spend is $20K or greater, all members of the company become Premium members.
If your company paid for the annual subscription for Premium, all company members become Premium.
Learn how to join a company here. Please note that all additional members of a known Company must upload their tax exemption documentation to their individual accounts here.
If you have a paid Premium Membership, and your spend exceeds $20,000, you or your company will receive a coupon in the amount of $995, for use on qualifying purchases on Chairish.
