Top 100 Registry Membership Benefits

Top 100 Registry exists to serve its members, and strives to maximize the value of its memberships by providing America’s most value-added, secure forum designed exclusively for professional men and women to grow socially and professionally. Top 100 Registry provides both complimentary and paid levels of memberships:

Initial Membership : Unlike many networking organizations, which typically require a fee for inclusion, you are eligible for a free Initial Membership. While this membership is not interactive and does not permit you to use the Services beyond what is described on our BENEFITS page, you do receive those benefits entirely for free and without further obligation.

Paid Membership Levels : Our experience and research has shown that our members experience success in proportion to the degree of commitment they give to their membership and active participation they experience with other members. To maximize our members’ opportunities, Top 100 Registry invests significant resources in developing an exclusive physical and digital magazine for our paid members, at various levels.

Each paid membership is a one time payment with no annual dues or fees. Membership includes different settings of page layouts as well as different amounts of copies reserved for each setting.There is no duration of time in which these services are rendered.

Membership Sales / Cancellation Policy

As discussed, Top 100 Registry starts delivering its services immediately upon the membership sale. At that time, Top 100 Registry pays to enroll you in its third-party programs, to complete and manage your profile, and for each of your setting-specific benefits. As your membership coordinator explains during your sales call, all of Top 100 Registry’s membership sales are considered final and fully-consummated after 30 days from the time of the sale.
