Calculated on Net Order Value — the discounted amount the family actually pays, excluding tax and shipping. Paid monthly by check or ACH.

Quarterly Minimums & Annual Totals
Tier Q1 (Ramp) Full Quarter Annual (Year 1) Annual (Steady State)
Community $0 $650 $1,950 $2,600
Founding $750 $1,500 $5,250 $6,000
Enterprise 2–5 $1,500 $3,000 $10,500 $12,000

Minimums are revenue-based, not order-count-based. Miss once: rates step down. Miss twice: exclusivity and revenue share are lost. Territory is released immediately and never held for underperformers.

What Hitting Minimum Actually Earns You
Tier Annual Minimum (Year 1) Approx. Revenue Share Earned
Founding $5,250 ~$1,076
Enterprise 2–5 $10,500 ~$2,783

Blended across the full product mix, assuming minimum is met through real customer orders. Beyond minimum, every additional dollar of family orders earns at the same rate — there's no ceiling.

Enterprise 2–5 minimum is aggregate — the total across all your locations combined, not per location. Bringing more locations under one partnership lowers your average burden per site.

Protect Your Exclusivity — Delight More Families

You decide how you hit your quarterly number. Beyond referrals from your families, you can purchase bulk image credits directly — instantly counting toward your minimum, with real product in hand to use however you see fit.

Bundle discount: Buy 50+ of either product, get 10% off the same quantity of the other.

One important distinction: bulk credits satisfy your minimum but do not generate revenue share — this is a way to guarantee your territory stays yours, not a way to earn. Real customer orders are how you earn; bulk credits are how you protect what you've built.

Need Bulk Product Without a Partnership?

Bulk image credits are also available outside The Story Circle — at a straightforward per-unit rate, no territory or minimum commitment required. Partner pricing above is always the better rate.
