Joining

Joining Conexus

Membership is by invitation or sponsorship from an existing Member. There is no fee today, no approval panel and no waiting period, and you can leave at any time.

The Member journey

From invitation to Member

  1. An existing Member invites or sponsors you and shares the term sheet.
  2. You read the Published Materials: the Master Agreement, the Network Policies and the term sheet. Before you receive Member-only materials, you give a short click-through acceptance of their confidentiality terms.
  3. You sign the joinder and give the information it asks for: your legal name and how you are organized, where you are registered and based, a notice email and address, a primary contact, who invited you, any affiliated Members, and a description of your services. You become a Member on signing; that date is your Effective Date. Nobody at Conexus approves or countersigns it.
  4. The Council issues your Member ID and a Confirmation of Membership. You may use the Member Badge while you are Active.
  5. Verification is optional. You may complete identity, business-registration and insurance checks through a third-party provider, paying the provider directly.
  6. From your Effective Date you may make and receive Referrals and discuss opportunities with other Members.
  7. When your Client needs complementary expertise, you may engage another Member, starting with a short Network Project Confirmation.
  8. Once a year, when re-registration starts, you confirm your details and insurance so your status stays Active.
  9. You remain an independent business throughout.

Common questions

Cost, verification and timing

Does it cost anything?

There is no joining fee, no dues and no transaction fee today, and you never pay to use the Conexus name or brand. Once the Infrastructure Company is in place, the Network expects to recover the cost of shared infrastructure through modest cost-recovery registration charges: an initial charge when you join and an annual charge, set to cover costs only. The first charge needs Member approval and at least 60 days’ notice, Members who joined before it starts do not pay the initial charge, and you can withdraw before any new charge or increase takes effect, without penalty. If you choose a third-party verification, the provider may charge a fee, paid directly to the provider, never to Conexus.

Do I have to be verified first?

No. Verification is optional and there is no waiting period. A Referral to you qualifies from your Effective Date. Other Members can see which checks you have completed, and the default is that Client confidential information is shared only with Members who have completed an identity or registration check.

Can my joinder be declined?

Only on narrow, administrative grounds: a prior removal, a sanction or legal bar, materially false information, a plain mismatch with the Network, or the infrastructure limit in Agreement Section 3.7. The Council does not screen competence or suitability.

What does it require of me?

No minimum referral volume, revenue target, meeting attendance or obligation to accept an opportunity. You agree to pay referral fees you owe, protect confidential information, respect qualifying introductions and deal fairly with other Members.

Leaving

You can leave at any time

A Member may withdraw at any time, effective immediately on written notice to the Council. Obligations already accrued continue, including confidentiality, fees earned or still to come from referrals made before you left, and the 24-month non-circumvention protection. If the Network Policies are later changed in a way that materially and adversely affects you, you have a right to withdraw before the change takes effect.
