The problem

02

Your community shouldn't
live in five apps.

Most community organizers glue together Discord + Eventbrite + Stripe + a group chat + a spreadsheet. Every tool owns a piece. None of them talk.

Circle and Mighty promise all-in-one but cost $89+/month and feel like corporate SaaS. ByHere is warm, mobile-first, Stripe-native, and genuinely in one place.

What makes us different

03
01

Stripe-native from day one.

You own the payment relationship. Your members pay you through your own Stripe account — we never hold the money. Standard Stripe fees, no platform markup.

02

Mobile and web, first-class.

Most platforms pick one side. Organizers get a real web dashboard; members get a real mobile app. iOS, Android, and a responsive web app — not a grudging afterthought.

03

Your data, always yours.

Members, messages, events, analytics — exportable at any time. We don't hold your community hostage. If you leave, you leave with everything.

Coming from Locals?

We'll rebuild your club and re-invite your members.

Locals is winding down and doesn't give you a clean export. What we'll do: set up your new club end-to-end — topics, tiers, event templates — import whatever member list you can pull, and send each member a one-click welcome with a resubscribe through your own Stripe. No double-billing, no surprise charges. Hands-on and free for the first 50 clubs.

FAQ

07

Questions you might have.

01When does it open?
First 50 clubs get invites within two weeks of the waitlist launch (target: summer 2026). Waitlist is in order — the earlier you sign up, the earlier you move.
02How much will it cost?
Founding clubs pay $0 platform fees for 12 months. After that, a flat plan we'll publish before you commit — not a surprise. Your members pay Stripe's standard processing fee, same as on any other platform.
03How is this different from Circle or Mighty?
Circle and Mighty are web-first SaaS priced at $41–$89+/month with a learning curve. ByHere is mobile-first with a real web dashboard, warm rather than corporate, and priced for founding clubs at $0 for 12 months.
04Is there a web app and mobile apps?
Both, from day one. Organizers get a real web dashboard; members get a real mobile app (iOS + Android + PWA). Most platforms pick one side — we're not doing that.
05How are payments handled?
Stripe Connect. You set up your own Stripe account — we never hold your members' money. Standard Stripe fees, no platform markup. Supports memberships, paid events, 1:1 sessions, and tips.
06Will my Locals members have to re-sign up?
They'll click a one-click welcome link we send them — they don't create a new account from scratch. For this to work we need the member list you can pull from Locals. We'll handle the rest.
07What about my paid Locals subscribers?
Stripe doesn't support transferring subscriptions between connected accounts — we coordinate a clean resubscribe: old Locals billing stops, and your members get a one-click link to resubscribe through your own Stripe. We time it so no one is double-charged.
