Member Guide

Everything important,
in plain language.

This guide explains how every part of Balea Sphere works — access, credits, the network, messaging, the marketplace, and the AI concierge. Read once, then act with confidence.

Curated, not purchased.

How access works

Membership in Balea Sphere is earned through a curation process, not a subscription. You submit an application that explains who you are, what you bring, and what you seek. Our team reviews for genuine Balearic relevance — sector fit, track record, and mutual value. Strong applications are approved within 24–48 hours. Once approved, your Workspace unlocks and you receive your welcome credits.

Roles progress from applicant → member → verified member → premium member → circle member. Each level unlocks deeper visibility, more powerful introductions, and access to private circles within the network.

Intentional, not transactional.

How credits work

Credits are not a paywall — they are a quality filter that keeps every action in the network deliberate and high-trust. You spend credits when you choose to unlock something of real value: an introduction, a direct conversation, a marketplace listing, or an AI workflow. The cost is always shown before you act.

Action costs: Introduction unlock (15 cr) · Open chat thread (12 cr) · Publish listing (10 cr) · Circle access request (12 cr) · AI request (8 cr) · Concierge query (5 cr). Three plans: Starter €19 / 120 cr, Growth €49 / 360 cr, Inner Circle €99 / 900 cr.

Signal, not noise.

How the network map works

The Network Map is a living signal graph of your private circle. Each node represents a member, listing, AI insight, or access circle. Edge connections show the relationship type — core connections, opportunities, insights, and access paths. Gold nodes are members you can contact directly.

To connect: select a gold member node → read their relevance heat score and trust score → write a warm, personal introduction in the text field → click 'Send Private Introduction' (15 credits). You will be redirected to a private thread immediately. The recipient also receives an email notification.

Unlocked, not open.

How messaging works

Direct messaging in Balea Sphere is intentional by design. You unlock a conversation from the Network Map or directly from Messages using a member's email. Opening a thread costs 12 credits and ensures both parties entered the conversation with intent. Messages are private, end-to-end, and never shared.

Once a thread is open, sending messages is free. Threads update in real time (7-second refresh). You can open threads from the Network Map — the introduction flow automatically creates a thread and redirects you to Messages.

Off-market, member-only.

How the Marketplace works

The Marketplace is a curated feed of opportunities, partnerships, and private deals — visible only to verified members. Eight listing types cover the full range: from off-market property and investment opportunities to collaboration requests, event seats, and private deals. Listings are sorted by recency and type.

Publishing a listing costs 10 credits. You control visibility (all members, circle-only, or private), the suggested contact cost, and the minimum trust score required to engage. The listing fee keeps quality high and ensures every publish is intentional.

Guidance, not noise.

How the AI concierge works

The AI Concierge appears on every page as a context-aware assistant. On the Network Map, it can explain node signals and suggest who to contact first. In the Marketplace, it can help you refine your publish copy. In the Workspace, it gives you one clear next move. On mobile, it opens as a bottom sheet.

The Concierge adapts its suggestions to the page you are on. Authenticated members connect to our private AI service. The Concierge uses your platform context to give personalised, actionable answers — not generic chatbot responses.

Ready?

The circle is waiting.

Access is by application. We review for genuine fit — not volume. If you are building something real in the Balearics, this is the right circle.
