Friends of the Society Agreement

Effective 2026-10-12

This Friends of the Society Agreement ("Agreement") is between your club, organization, or business ("you") and Dear Sister Society ("Dear Sister," "we," "us," or "our"). It applies when you apply for and use a business account in our Friends of the Society program. It is in addition to our Terms of Service — including the binding arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in Section 15 of the Terms — and, if you sell tickets, our Seller & Host Agreement. The person who accepts this Agreement confirms they are authorized to act for the club, organization, or business.

By checking the box to accept this Agreement, you agree to it.

1. Applying and approval

  • Business accounts are for real clubs, organizations, and businesses that host events or offer something of genuine value to our members. Tell us the truth about who you are, and keep your details current.
  • We review every application and may approve or decline it at our discretion. We may ask for more information, such as links to past events. Friends of the Society benefits start only when we approve your application.

2. What Friends of the Society get

While your Friend of the Society status is active:

  • a Friend of the Society badge on your events and posts;
  • placement in the Friends of the Society featured section of Friends Nearby;
  • the ability to add an RSVP link to your own sign-up or ticketing page on your events;
  • analytics for your events in your profile — views by members, RSVP-link clicks, and tickets sold. Analytics are totals; we do not tell you which members viewed or clicked; and
  • a chance to be featured in Dear Sister Society content when we post about events on our Instagram, TikTok, and other channels. Features are at our discretion and are not guaranteed.

We may change or improve these benefits over time. If we remove a core benefit, we will tell you in advance.

3. Fees and billing

  • Free trial. Your first 3 months after approval are free.
  • Subscription. After the free period, the business account costs $18 per month.
  • Founding Friends. The first 15 Friends of the Society we approve are Founding Friends and pay $12 per month for as long as their subscription stays active, as our thanks for supporting us early. If a Founding Friend's subscription ends, a new subscription is at the then-current price.
  • Where you pay. Subscriptions are purchased and managed on our website through our payment processor, Stripe — not through the iOS app. By subscribing, you also agree to Stripe's terms.
  • Renewal and cancellation. Your subscription renews monthly until you cancel. You can cancel at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and we do not refund partial months except where the law requires.
  • If you don't subscribe by the end of the free period, or a payment fails and isn't fixed, Friends of the Society benefits pause and your account works like a regular member account.
  • Price changes. We will give you at least 30 days' notice before changing your price. Founding Friends keep the founding price while their subscription stays active.

4. Your events and links

  • You are responsible for your events, including their accuracy, safety, venue, and compliance with laws and venue rules, as described for hosts in the Terms. We do not organize, supervise, or vet events.
  • RSVP links must lead to your own legitimate sign-up, ticketing, or information page. Do not link to anything misleading, unsafe, or unrelated. Purchases made on your own site are between you and the buyer.
  • If you sell tickets through Dear Sister, the Seller & Host Agreement applies to those sales.

5. Content and promotion

  • You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use your name, logo, and the event details and photos you post on Dear Sister to promote your events and Dear Sister Society, including on our social media.
  • If you opted in to being featured, we may also create original posts about your events. You can opt out at any time by contacting us; we will stop new features, though posts already published may remain.
  • You confirm you have the rights to everything you post, including photos of people who appear in them.

6. Community standards

Friends of the Society must follow the community rules in the Terms, keep a welcoming and safe environment at their events, and must not use Dear Sister to collect members' personal information for unrelated marketing. We may remove content, pause benefits, or suspend or end your Friend of the Society status if we believe you have broken this Agreement or the Terms, or created risk for our members. If we end your Friend of the Society status for reasons other than a breach, we will stop billing you.

7. Changes and leaving the program

We may update this Agreement; if we make material changes, we will notify you and ask you to accept the updated version. You may leave the program at any time by cancelling your subscription. Sections 3 (for amounts already owed), 5 (for content already published), and 6 survive.
