Got Questions?

Got questions? We've got answers.

What happens after 12 months?
If your club is thriving and making great community impact, you can keep your Captain tier access beyond the first year. We'll reach out a few weeks before your 12 months are up to chat about next steps.
How long does the review process take?
Our team reviews applications weekly. You can expect to hear from us within 7 business days of applying.
Do I need to be a registered non-profit?
Nope! While many of our clubs are registered non-profits, we welcome community groups and informal clubs that put community before profit. As long as you're genuinely building community (not making money), you're eligible.
Can I apply for multiple clubs?
Yes! If you manage multiple qualifying clubs or organisations, you can apply for each one separately. Each application gets reviewed independently.
What if my application isn't accepted?
We'll let you know why and give you feedback on how to strengthen your application. You're always welcome to reapply anytime—we'd love to support you once you're a great fit!
