Paid Desks

How a Paid Desk works

A Paid Desk is a Desk whose owner charges for a pass. You see what is inside before you pay: the locked channels, the pages, the age of the Desk and the date of its last post. You pay by signing one SOL transfer of the exact price shown. TMC reads that payment on-chain, your pass starts, and the owner's share is added to their Desk earnings.

• Prices are in SOL only. TMC shows no conversion.
• TMC adds nothing to the price you see. You also pay the small Solana network fee, like for any transaction.
• TMC does not review, endorse or guarantee what a Desk owner sells. Nothing in a Desk is financial advice from TMC.
• Referees of a Desk owner join that owner's Paid Desk for free by default, and the owner can change this in the Desk settings.

Passes

The owner chooses which formulas to offer, and each one is optional. The yearly pass is selected by default, and a slider switches to the monthly price. A longer pass always costs less per day than a shorter one, and the Join panel shows the saving in SOL and in percent, for example "Save 3 SOL (25%) vs monthly".

The 24-hour trial

An owner can offer a free 24-hour pass. It costs nothing and asks for no signature. It opens the same doors as a paid pass for 24 hours and carries a "Trial" badge. You get one trial per account and per Desk, and a trial never turns into a paid pass by itself: when it ends, you decide whether to join.

When a pass ends

• A pass runs from its start date to its end date. Paying before the end extends it from the end date, so no day is lost.
• Switching formula, for example from monthly to yearly, creates a new pass that starts when the current one ends.
• At the end date your access to the paid channels closes. Your messages stay, and Renew is one click away.
• If you leave a Desk, your pass stays valid. Come back before it ends and you get your access back without paying again.
• Locking your account stops you from signing, so from paying. It does not cut a pass that is already running.

Auto-renew

Auto-renew is a box you can tick on a week, month or year pass. It is off by default and never applies to the 24-hour pass or to a trial. You can untick it at any time, on the Desk page or in My Account, under Desk passes.

TMC does not hold a key to your wallet. A renewal happens when you open TMC: your browser signs it, with the same session key as your other one-click payments, and only for a renewal that the server has opened for that exact pass and end date.

• Reminder. 4 days before the end date (2 days for a week pass), in the bell and by email.
• Cancel. When TMC opens with a renewal due, a toast counts down 10 seconds with a Cancel button. Cancel signs nothing and unticks the box for that pass. Renew by hand stays available.
• The new pass starts at the old end date, so the days of the grace period are covered and never paid twice.
• Price went up? A higher price is never taken on its own. You confirm the new price by hand.
• Not enough SOL? Nothing is sent. You are told, and TMC tries again the next time you open it inside the window.
• One renewal per end date, even with two tabs or two devices open, and one attempt a day.
• You did not open TMC in the window? Nothing is debited, ever. Your access ends after the grace period, the box unticks, and you get an email to renew in one click. Coming back weeks later never triggers a surprise debit.
• No renewal is opened if the Desk stopped selling, is frozen, its owner is banned, or your account is locked.
• Your session key lasts 30 days. If it has expired, sign in as usual first and the same toast follows.

Upsells

An upsell is a separate product an owner sells, even inside a free Desk. You pay once, and it opens exactly what the owner attached to it, for life or for a set number of days. Upsells do not renew by themselves.

• A locked page, channel or event shows "Unlock" with the price. You see what it opens before you buy.
• An owner and their team cannot buy their own products.
• A lifetime product that has buyers cannot be archived, and what it opens stays open to its buyers.
• Listings that promise profits or results are removed.

No refunds

Passes and upsells are prepaid and non-refundable, except at TMC's discretion in a case of fraud. TMC gives no guarantee on the content of a Desk. Here is what that means in the cases people ask about.

Fraud and freezes

If TMC upholds a report, or bans an owner, it freezes that owner's unclaimed Desk earnings. New sales and renewals stop, and the Desk becomes read-only. Members keep what they already paid for.

TMC then decides, case by case, whether to release the frozen amount to the owner or to return it, in whole or in part, to the members who paid in the previous 30 days. That is a decision, not a right. Amounts an owner has already claimed are never taken back.

For sellers

Selling needs a plan, whether you sell a Paid Desk or an upsell, even inside a free Desk. There is one plan per account. A free Desk with no plan keeps everything it has today and sells nothing. Plans are priced in SOL. The prices below are list prices, and the yearly discount and the commissions apply by default: TMC can change them, and your seller page always shows the ones that apply to you. See also Fees.

• Pro is the recommended plan, yearly. A slider switches the page to monthly. By default, yearly costs 30% less than twelve monthly payments: save 3.6 SOL on Pro.
• The commission comes from your share, never from what the member pays, on passes, renewals and upsells. No cashback and no referral reward applies to these sales.
• A monthly plan is paid from your first sales of the month, never from your wallet, and never for more than you sold. A month with no sale costs nothing. The monthly fee is off for now: until TMC turns it on, a monthly plan takes nothing from your sales.
• A yearly plan is paid upfront in one click from your wallet. If you do not renew it, you keep your plan as a monthly plan taken from your sales, and nothing stops.
• Switching. Upgrade any time and it starts now. A downgrade starts at the end of the period. If you go over the limits after a downgrade, your oldest paid Desk and your three oldest products keep selling, and the others stop selling new passes until you upgrade or archive. Passes already sold run to their end.
• Your share shows as Desk earnings on the Rewards page, with its own Claim button, available as soon as a payment confirms. Each payout is up to 2 SOL.
• No promise of results. A listing that promises gains is removed. Show your verified results instead.
• Nothing pays for recruiting. No plan, commission or limit depends on how many people you bring.

Changes

TMC may change plans, prices, limits and commissions. It gives at least 7 days' notice on the platform, and a change only applies to periods that start after it, never to a yearly plan or a pass already paid. The legal terms for Desks are in the Terms of Use.
