Membership & Billing
One membership. Every venue.
Members pay once and roam free at every venue in the network. Today venues get verified foot-traffic and customer data. Automated venue payouts are a Phase 2 roadmap item (see /roadmap).
The six-tier membership breakdown
Each tier offers different speeds, session durations, and roaming privileges. Venues can set which tiers they accept and at what conditions.
| Tier | Access level | Roaming | Target user |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Basic speed, time-limited | Single venue | Walk-in guests, one-time visitors |
| Local | Standard speed, day pass | Single venue | Regular customers of one business |
| Roamer | Standard speed, unlimited | All venues | Frequent travelers, remote workers |
| Pro | Priority speed, unlimited | All venues | Power users, daily commuters |
| Business | Priority + static IP options | All venues | Businesses with multiple locations |
| Pro Travel | Maximum speed, priority queue | All venues + priority at peak | Heavy travelers, content creators |
How payments flow
Today the flow handles the member side end-to-end. Venue-side payouts are a Phase 2 roadmap item (see /roadmap):
Member subscribes
Member picks a tier, pays via Stripe. Monthly or annual. Subscription is attached to their Weird Network account — not to any single venue.
Member authenticates at a venue
Their membership token is valid at any participating venue. The portal verifies the token and opens a session immediately.
Session is logged
Duration, venue ID, tier level, and timestamp are recorded. This drives the revenue attribution calculation.
Venue revenue-share ships in Phase 2
At the billing cycle, session data will determine each venue's share of the membership revenue pool. Venues with more member sessions will earn more. This ships in Phase 2 — see /roadmap.
Venue receives payout (Phase 2)
When Phase 2 ships, revenue flows to the venue's connected Stripe account. No invoicing. No chasing. Automatic. Until then venues are onboarded free at 100 sessions/month — see /roadmap.
The network effect: Every new venue joining the network makes memberships more valuable to members. More venues = more reasons to subscribe. More subscribers = more revenue per venue. Both sides win as the network grows.
Why this beats selling WiFi vouchers
Recurring revenue
Vouchers are one-time sales. Memberships are monthly subscriptions. The math is obvious.
Zero ops overhead
No voucher codes to print, distribute, or track. The membership portal handles everything.
Revenue scales with the network
Your venue's WiFi earns more as more members join the network — not just from your own customers.
Stripe-backed
Payments are real, processed by Stripe, with automatic retry on failed charges. Not a custom billing system.
