Frequently asked questions
- What’s the difference between Explorer and Standard Membership?
- Standard Membership is for practicing advice-only advisors who meet our criteria: it includes a public directory listing, lead sharing, E&O insurance access, and the full member portal. Explorer Membership is for advisors who are still exploring the model: you get the community, the events, the Measure Twice discount, and the Explorer directory, without a public listing.
- Do I need to be a CFP® professional or have my own firm?
- No. Explorer Membership has no approval criteria. If you’re curious about the advice-only model, you’re welcome, whether you’re studying for the CFP® exam, working at a traditional firm, or running your own practice.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes. Explorer Membership is a month-to-month (or annual) subscription you can cancel anytime from your billing portal.
- What happens when I’m ready to go advice-only?
- Upgrade to Standard Membership to get listed on the directory, or check out the Launch Package if you want help with state registration through our compliance partner. Reach out anytime at [email protected] and we’ll point you in the right direction.
