How does the 50% discount on additional memberships work?

Members may create an additional membership via their control panel, and receive 50% off on that membership for the original registration. This is beneficial to list in additional categories, alternate locations, and more! The additional membership(s) must remain linked to the original membership, and have the original contact person in charge of both memberships.


Members can continue to lock in the 50% discount on the additional membership's future renewals as long as their original, full priced membership, is still active.

I am an agent who represents several entertainers and vendors. How can I join GigMasters?
GigMasters was designed for individual entertainers and vendors and most of our features reflect that intent. That said, we do have many agents who are successfully using our system. If you are an agent, you should purchase a separate membership for each entertainer or vendor you represent. Please keep in mind that we give a 50% discount on additional memberships, if you purchase them through the control panel of your existing membership. Assuming you maintain both memberships, you will continue to receive the 50% discount on every subsequent renewal.
