Hey Everyone

Hope you are all well.

I'd thought I would post a notice by way of an event to try and reach out to more people regarding to making a contribution fee towards registering this group on Meetup.

I had received an email from Meetup that the 6-monthly fee has gone up FROM: $98USD (plus taxes) to 178.99USD (plus taxes), this means around $300AUD per 6 months. Their email is below;

"We’re reaching out about an upcoming price change to your Meetup subscription. At the moment, our team is working hard on several improvements to the platform, all aimed at enhancing your community engagement. We’re excited to tell you more about what’s in the works, but first, let’s go over the new price reflecting the updates on the horizon.
As of your next renewal on 11/24/2024, the price of your semiannual subscription will be USD 178.99, excluding applicable taxes.
We understand that a change in pricing might not initially sit well with our Meetup organizers. Please know that it’s grounded in our commitment to providing you with a more feature-rich, stable, and impactful platform. We’ll be able to sustain and accelerate such improvements thanks to this adjustment. And we can’t wait for you to see the value they bring to your Meetup experience.
A glimpse at what’s already in development:

* **Improved communication features.** Regular and reliable interactions with your members are crucial for building your community, so we’re working to make Meetup’s communication features more streamlined, efficient, and effective.
* **AI-enhanced recommendations.** To spark more lively participation in your communities, we’re refining our AI models to deliver personalized event and group recommendations.
* **Platform reliability and bug fixes.** We're investing in robust technology upgrades to ensure Meetup runs smoother than ever, while identifying and fixing bugs as quickly as possible.
* **… and more!** This is only the start of our big plans for Meetup, with plenty more enhancements, updates, and new features in the pipeline.

We hope you’re as excited as we are about the future of Meetup. With regard to the price change, you don't have to take any action. You're always free to adjust your subscription in your Account Settings.
Thank you for your support and business. We’re committed to providing you with quality services that make a meaningful difference in how you connect with people and create impact. And we’re here to help if you need it.
Sincerely,
Your Meetup Team".

**So what does this mean for us?**
If many of us chip in $10 (or more if you can), that only equates to $1.66 per month for the 6 months or if you are able to chip in $15 for the 6 months then that is only $2.5 per month. A lot cheaper than a meal or even a cup of coffee.

The other part of it, as Meetup suggests, it may encourage people to be more involved by way of hosting, trying to get value for money. Of course Meetup need the revenue to pay people to service and maintain their App and webpage too.
