Creative Portal Pricing

As we continue to grow and evolve, Creative Portal is introducing a new, sustainable model from Tuesday, 1st July 2025, designed to support both individual creatives and the wider professional and education sectors. These changes ensure we can deliver powerful new features, invest in community grants, and remain accessible for years to come.

This is not a move toward profit — it’s a step toward greater impact, independence, and innovation.

For Individual Creatives

Free Lifetime Access – Existing Members

If you’re already a portfolio user or sign up before midnight on Monday, 30th June 2025, you will continue to enjoy free lifetime access to the platform. No change, no fee — just our continued support.

New Members from 1st June 2025

All new individual users joining from 11am on Tuesday, 1st July 2025 will be asked to make a one-time, lifetime membership payment of just £10 (or equivalent in local currency).

• - No renewals
• - No hidden fees
• - Just full access, forever

Jobs & Opportunities (Creative Mesh)

This exclusive feature for portfolio members will be available via a separate subscription:

- Annual Payment: £36 (equivalent to £3/month)

- Optional and renewable yearly

- Gives full access to job listings, commissions, and opportunity postings

For Education Providers & Institutions

To support long-term access for students, we’re introducing a one-time-only, block membership model for learning providers.

Institution Type	One-Time Fee
Single Schools (Public or Independent)	£300
Multi-School Trusts/Groups	£600
Single University	£1,000
University with Alumni Access	£1,300
University with International Partnerships	£2,500
SEND / Special Education Institutions	Free

All payments are one-time only. There are no renewals or recurring fees.

Foreign institutions may pay the equivalent of the UK fee in their local currency.

Why This Model?

We’ve chosen a one-off, lifetime membership model instead of monthly subscriptions because we believe in:

- Keeping access affordable and fair

- Offering long-term value

- Remaining transparent and community-first

- Avoiding financial pressure and continuing ongoing commitments

Your membership fee will directly fuel:

- Platform development

- AI and immersive tools

- Career support resources

- Future micro-grants via our Creative Cashpoint for emerging talent

We’re Still Us – Just Stronger

Creative Portal remains committed to our founding values: creative equity, inclusion, and empowerment. These pricing updates are designed to ensure we can keep delivering on that mission, for everyone — whether you’re just starting out or shaping the future of the sector.
