Pricing
Pay for what you actually use.
Gamestead Free is free forever. Gamestead Pro is for solo power hosts who run from their own account, no venue. Venue Basic is your full host kit (1 venue plus your Gamestead Pro bundled in) for $15/mo. Each tier includes everything below it. Yearly saves you two months where a yearly SKU exists.
Startup special for new venues: convert from the free trial and your first year of Venue Basic is $99. Standard price is $149 a year (or $15 a month), and that is what year two costs.
Heads up: every paid venue tier requires owner verification. Today that's a Full Uproar staff review during a 7-day probation window. After our 30-day trial converts, owner ID verification is required before billing, no exceptions.
Clubs: also start with a 30-day trial. Same $15/mo after conversion; no owner-ID step, but a comp period can be granted by staff on request.
You're in the first group of people looking at this.
We're being totally honest: the discover feed grows as the network does, and right now the network is small. Going Pro on day one mostly buys us runway to keep building, and we're not pretending otherwise. Here's what we'll trade you for that:
- 1First 60 days on us. Founding hosts get two full months at $0; $5/mo kicks in from month three. Founding cohort only.
- 2Bring someone in, knock more months off. Every paid Pro signup using your link earns you another free month; every paid Venue signup earns you three. They stack.
Scheduling caps while you're Pro: none. Book as many nights as you can run. If Pro ever lapses to Free the caps take effect forward-only: nothing you already scheduled is stranded, only the next new one waits until renewal.

Venue Basic
1 venue plus your Pro included. One $15/mo subscription, not a Pro-plus-Venue stack.
Each tier includes everything below it. Pro turns on Passport power features; Venue is one $15/mo subscription that bundles the owner's Pro.

How verification works
- Venue: claim the venue, then operate it during a 7-day staff-review probation. Full Uproar reviews your claim and verifies you're the owner. Federation publish and paid features turn on once that review lands.
Application turnaround is typically 3 business days. As our network matures we'll move every paid venue onto upfront KYB before billing converts.
