Here are our recommendations for different team roles and sizes:
Co-founders: Choose individual memberships. When partners want equal ownership and autonomy, this lets each co-founder have individual access, and their own membership, benefits, and relationship with The Corner. This also allows for separate billing (each person can pay on their own card or be reimbursed). Also great for: independent collaborators, freelancers, advisors.
Team Staff: Choose our “Team Add-Ons” option. One primary account pays one invoice for the whole team. Easier administration: Quickly add/remove team members as roles change. Ideal when access is tied to employment (e.g., staff, interns, assistants). Best for: small businesses, nonprofits, agencies, project teams.
Blended Access: Need mixed access? You can have one or two people as full members, plus “Business-Hours” team seats for everyone else.
-
