Apply to become an Official Member

1. Send your application using the form below.
2. Send us your evidence — insurance certificate (£5m public liability), contract, ID and the rest of the 14 checks.
3. Pay the assessment fee: £99 a year.
4. We check everything and contact your referees and couples.
5. If every check is passed, we email you a link to set up your member account. From there you manage your listing and get your badge.

The fee is £99 a year and is renewed every year, which pays for the full check being done again. The fee pays for the assessment itself. It does not buy membership, and it is not refundable simply because an application is unsuccessful. There is a 48-hour cooling-off period from the point of application.
