The third option
If what you want is a price you can read.
Both bill a year at a time and price the website separately. For a one-town chamber that wants the essentials, there's a simpler option.
Hiveway for Chambers is $299 a month, flat for any size, month to month, with a WordPress website we build and host, the move off your old system, and dues and tickets paid into your own Stripe account with no cut. Every member is a real page on your own domain that search engines and AI can read. Founding season: we're building Hiveway now with our first chamber, and taking applications from founding chambers and destinations.
