Membership Fees
Becoming a GBC member is easy. You pay a one-time initiation fee of $500. Each year your membership is renewable for $295. The only cash expense after that is a nominal 6% fee at the conclusion of each transaction. What does this cover?
Think of GBC as having your own worldwide sales force. We seek out and bring you new customers in exchange for a “sales commission” — a 6% cash transaction fee whenever you sell or purchase using GBC trade dollars. Although the 6% cash transaction fee is small, it yields big benefits. GBC works to promote your company though its network of brokers.
In addition to marketing your company, goods and services through our brokers, GBC also gives you exposure through our company newsletters and other communications with GBC members. When you join GBC, you essentially acquire a sales force, a marketing company and a huge network of pre-qualified customer prospects!
