How do Starter, Verified, and Plus work?

Starter is free, Verified is one-time, and Plus is monthly. They solve different needs and can complement each other.

Starter is the free entry plan. It lets you discover social dancers, teachers, organizers, DJs, and artists, send 10 connection requests per month, start up to 10 new conversations per month (chat activations), send 5 hosting offers per month, create 1 trip per month (up to 5 trip requests), create 2 events per month, hold up to 5 private groups total, send 5 activity requests per month, offer hosting, and use Dance Tools.

Verified is a one-time trust upgrade. It is not a subscription and it does not replace Plus. Verified adds a badge, unlocks requesting hosting (up to 10 requests per month), unlocks teacher or artist profile, and opens service inquiries. Everything in Starter still applies after verifying.

Plus is the monthly visibility and usage plan. It raises your account to 60 connection requests per month, 30 chat activations per month, 10 hosting offers per month, 10 trip requests per month (create up to 5 trips), 5 events per month, up to 10 private groups total, 15 activity requests per month, and adds 3 profile photos alongside 2 showcase videos. It also includes private mode to hide from Discover, and your trips and events appear before free-plan members. Verified and Plus stay separate products because one is trust access and the other is recurring growth access.
