Yes. And we want to be upfront: all sales are final. However, you are always in complete control of your support. You can cancel, pause, or change your membership tier at any time by visiting your account profile on our website, clicking "here" in the footer of any of our emails after Update your email preferences or unsubscribe, or by reaching out to us directly if you encounter any issues.

Founding Member status is first-come, first-served for the first 189 members across all tiers. Once those spots are filled, we will update our tier descriptions to reflect that the offer has closed. If you see it listed, you still have time to secure your certificate and be a Founding Member of The 1837 Club!

Once payment is confirmed, I will work diligently to create your custom Founding Member of The 1837 Club digital certificate, with your unique number (1-189). Your certificate will be emailed to the email address you used at the time of purchase.
