The Club
A private network built on
referral and trust.
Castori Club brings together lawyers, tax advisors, accountants, and other professionals who serve high-value clients. Members introduce clients to one another's services - and are compensated through a transparent allocation system.
01
The Network
Every member occupies a position in the lineage. When you introduce a client to another member's service, the engagement is recorded, the allocation is calculated, and the ledger is updated - quietly.
02
The Lineage
Members who introduced you remain your upline. Members you introduce become your downline. Allocations cascade through two tiers of lineage - a quiet acknowledgement of every introduction that built the chain.
03
The Ledger
Every engagement passes through a defined lifecycle - draft, negotiation, bilateral approval, activation, billing, and completion. At each stage, the Club ensures both parties have reviewed and consented.

Membership
Admission by referral.
Continuation by merit.
They are not slogans. They are the conditions under which membership is granted, and on which it can be withdrawn.
02
Recommendation
A member who introduces a peer vouches for them. Allocations cascade up the lineage as the network's quiet acknowledgement.
03
Quality, never volume
Membership is capped. Engagements are vetted. The Club prefers a slow ledger of consequential work to a fast one of forgettable transactions.
The Admission
How membership begins.
I
Introduction
An existing member submits a Letter of Introduction on your behalf, vouching for your professional standing and integrity.
II
The Concierge reviews
The Club's Concierge verifies the introduction, contacts references, and assesses alignment with the Club's tenets and existing membership.
III
Vote by the Council
Your application is presented to the Council. Admission requires majority approval. The Concierge communicates the result directly.
IV
Activation
Upon acceptance, you receive your member number, access credentials, and entry into the lineage beneath your introducer.
Right of Recommendation
€12,000
A member who has accumulated €12,000 in allocations gains the right to introduce a peer to the Club. This threshold ensures that every introduction carries the weight of demonstrated contribution.
Allocations
Every referral is recorded.
Every allocation is earned.
When an engagement is completed and payment is confirmed, the Club calculates each member's share automatically. Allocations cascade through the lineage - rewarding the chain of introductions that made the engagement possible.
The Cascade
Two recipients. One chain.
Both the broker and their upline receive a commission based on the engagement value. The broker pays a 20% fee to Castori Club. The upline pays 10% to the broker who referred them (for one year after referral), and a 20% fee to Castori Club.

Payouts
Allocations are deposited directly to your Stripe Connect account. Payouts are processed on the 2nd and 16th of each month.
Discretion
What is recorded is never
disclosed without consent.
Discretion is not merely a policy - it is the first tenet of the Club. The system is designed so that sensitive information is only accessible to those who need it.
01
Client confidentiality
Client identities, engagement values, and service details are visible only to the two parties involved in the engagement - the referring member and the providing member. No other member, including those in the lineage, can see client names or specifics.
02
Encrypted at rest
All data is encrypted at rest and in transit. The Club's infrastructure runs on private, access-controlled servers. Database backups are encrypted and stored in geographically separated locations.
03
Minimal disclosure
The Club records what is necessary to calculate allocations and maintain the integrity of the ledger. Member lists are never published. Engagement details are never shared outside the parties involved.
04
Right of removal
A member may request the deletion of their personal data at any time. Upon resignation from the Club, all personal identifiers are removed from the active ledger within 30 days, subject to legal retention requirements.
