Give an experience, get an experience.

Every new member starts with a spot.

Welcome someone into what you already do.

Something you’d be doing anyway, where you’d be happy to have one more person tag along. You’re not creating an experience. You’re making room in your life.

Know who you’re meeting.

All members verify their identity to participate.

01
The custom

No money changes hands between members.

You can’t buy your way in. You bring your way in.

Xenia is reciprocal, not transactional. Welcome someone in and you earn a spot, and a spot is good at anything else in the club.

Built for safety

Help is a text away.

Message a real person from our team before, during, or after. Someone always answers.

03
From the inside

You can see everything and still miss the place.

The difference between visiting somewhere and knowing someone there isn’t a better itinerary. It’s getting folded into the life already happening there.

What goes on your list

Something that is already happening and has room for one more. It doesn’t have to be special, but it should be better with one more person there.

Questions
What goes on my list?

What you’d do with a friend visiting from out of town. Things you already do, one line each: two to start, up to five.

Do I have to plan something?

No. You should be doing it anyway. Xenia is just a way to let one more person tag along.

Can I bring a friend?

Please do. Guests just verify who they are first, so everyone there is known.

How do spots work?

One spot for every member you welcome in. Spend them anywhere in the club, in any Xenia city. No money changes hands between members.

Is there any money involved?

Membership is free for now. No. Never. Everyone pays their own ordinary costs, but no money changes hands between members. Spots can’t be bought. A contribution completes membership.

What if I travel?

Your spots come with you. A local opening their city to you, right when you know no one: that’s the whole point.
