FAQ
Founding questions, answered
No. Your plan follows from what you trade. The badge is an extra for the first companies per region to reach the amounts, and it shows on your profile.
You don't apply. Sell €5,000 or €15,000, or buy €3,000, in your first 3 months, counted from sign-up. Completed orders of €250 or more count, with at least three independent trading partners and no single trading partner above 40% of your volume. Places go in the order companies reach the amount.
Yes, on Buyer Pro as its own plan. The first Buyer Pro subscribers per region to buy €3,000 in their first 3 months earn Founding Buyer; Buyer Pro through Trade or Pro doesn't count. They get every Founding perk: the badge, early access, the locked subscription price, extra visibility at launch and the extra cycle at the first yearly check.
For good. It stays on your profile, even if your plan changes later. Your subscription price stays locked as long as you stay subscribed.
Then Founding closes in your region. You still keep the plan your volume earns: reach the month-3 amount and that plan stays free for the rest of your first year.
